Editing Glaivewraith Stalker

[[File:Glaivewrath art 01.jpeg|thumb]]
'''Glaivewrath Stalkers''' are the assassins and hunters of the [[Nighthaunt]] - and are they good at it. They’re the only unit that took a page out of Freddy Krueger's book and got a creepy nursery rhyme about them; "''The Glaivewraith, it comes for you. It follows you about. There's no escape from what it will do. [[Nagash|Old Bones]] has found you out.''" Spooky.

In life, they were cruel mounted hunters who did it for the thrill of the kill. In death, [[Nagash]] decided to screw them over two-fold; they are now one with their mount, having disturbing horse-skull heads, and are now unable to feel any joy in their hunt. Don't think that this makes them any less dangerous though; as their nursery rhyme implies, once a Stalker sets its sight on you, it will literally not stop pursuing you until either it is destroyed or you're dead, at which point it will move onto the next target. Think you can hide? Think again! Once they see you, their glaive will magically track you by moving to always point towards you like a compass' needle points north.

Interestingly, when their models were first announced many immediately assumed that they were some type of ghost [[Skaven]] due to their vaguely Skaven-shaped skull. And whilst that may not be the case, it is an admittedly cool idea, yes-yes?

==On the Tabletop==
Unfortunately, their reputation as merciless killers doesn't translate well to the tabletop. At 60pts per a unit of 4 models, they generally do a far worse job at what almost every other unit can do, albeit at a cheaper price. Their uselessness is compounded by GW's obsession with them, putting them in almost every 2nd Edition starter box.
