If the big weakness of the Eldar is that they can't produce enough kids and are consequently dying as a race, why don't they just, like, work on that? It seems like you could easily just set aside some girls to fix this problem, with artificial insemination if necessary.
>>
I'm not sure their race as a whole actually has a population problem, the Craftworlds do and it's because their kids take years to gestate, the Exodites seem populous enough but have limited ability to seed new worlds and Commorragh is so full it sloshes.
>>
Not so much as a lack of ability to reproduce as most of the breeding population died in one bi event.

It would be like the usa losing everyone but the few people in Nebraska and New Mexico and one of the two groups becoming the Dark Eldar.
>>
Did the Old Ones chose a promising species as their pet project, or were the Eldar created from nothingness? In the later case, the Eldar gods are AI, and the Eldars themselves are just Bioroids (biological robots).
>>
>>46437991

They're fated to doom by their own hand and they know it. Working on making things better for themselves in any way that isn't hanging on by their fingernails isn't really their deal. Doesn't help that most of the time they try to mess with the future it ends up dooming them more.
>>
>>46437991
By all means, make your race of Psykers larger, make them bigger beacons that are easier to find by Slaanesh, especially when the large amount of children have not yet learned to hide their souls.

Seems that way. Exodites and DE don't seem to have a problem with population decline, but then again the former just stay on their mostly peacful planets instead of feeling it's their duty to police the galaxy, while the latter jusy speed-grow childen in artificial wombs to get around the whole long-ass gestation period.

I kind of eel that the reason CWE in particular have a problem with maintaining their population is because of the path system. Consider that when on a path of artist or warrior or whatever, the Eldar are supposed to dedicate themselves fully to mastering the thing that path is about. Getting pregnant or raising children would get in the way of that, so they won't have children. Thus the actual breeding population of the Eldar are the small segment of an already small population that at a given time happen to be on a path where they could have children without it getting on the way of them mastering their path. And they can't really do anything about that since their whole society is built around following the path system.
>>
>>46438512
I bet that sounded clever in your head.
>>
>>46438608
You'd think there would be a path of Parenthood. Something to do with following an aspect of Isha as a mother or akin to that. But with Craftworld Eldar who are super emotional and mentally in tune with one another mixed with an idea of supressing your feelings and urges finding someone you actually want a kid with is probably fairly difficult.

>>46437991
Because Eldar aren't capped by birthrates, they're capped by soulstones.

Every single Eldar needs a soulstone in order to not get eaten by Slaanesh. That means even if you set aside time to get 100 new Eldar children, they'll all just get consumed unless you get 100 soulstones for them.
>>
>>46437991
Lots of the Men and women are infertile, or at-least near to it.
commorragh solves its population problems with Clones and artificially birthed Eldar. Its actually a point of status to have been born naturally there.
The Craftworld Eldar are just long lived prudes afraid of slaanesh. So No, No mass orgy breeding programs for them. They've all sort of resigned themselves to an ever dwindling population that can replenish itself faster than the universe is killing them.
>>
>>46439330
I think it went like this
Proto eldar had gods from their own culture - which created shallow echoes of those gods in the warp
Old ones uplifted them and then created wraithlord/exarch constructs which focused their belief and possibly tied to those warp echoes
Eldar are now lead by their incarnated gods
In the short term this gives a boost but after the necrons disappear they become jaded since the afterlife isn't mystical etc. Sort of like how East Asians are sick fucks because Buddhist reincarnation so do shit now and let next life handle the karma
>>
>>46438916
There probably is one, or more likely it'll be an offshoot for one of the civilian paths (a lot of which seem to cover very broad categories, like Path of Artisan covers everything from a cook to a shipwright). I'd imagine at least there being an offshoot of Path of Service build around taking care of children, like a combination of daycare, babysitter and nanny, because the parents are likely too busy with their paths to do it.
>>
>>46439747
The reason DE use artificial births is because it's faster and easier, not because they're infertile. And DE don't use clones. The vat-grown DE are conceived the "old fashioned way", but the fetus gets removed by a haemonculus and placed in a vat to grow. The haemonculi can also bring back dead DE, but that isn't cloning either. They take the remains and as long as the soul still clings to them they can use their technomagic to regenerate the body good as new.

Naturally born children are a status symbol, but that's because having "trueborn" children means you have enough money you can afford to go through the difficult and time-consuming process of pregnancy (which for Eldar takes years) and raising the child to be old enough to fned off for itself, instead of just doing it the easy way and having the kid grown in an artificial womb over the course of a few months. It's DE equivalent of wearing really impractical clothes to show you never need to do any physical labour, or buing a gold-plated limousine or whatever.
>>
>>46439394
And the only way to get more soulstones is to go into the eye of terror and pick them off the ground from around Slaaneshes doorstep. At which point Slaanesh is aroused from sleep by the gentle sound of WOOOP WOOOP WOOOP ELF RAPE O'COCK! ELF RAPE O'COCK! WOOOP WOOOP ELDAR AT THE GAYTE!
>>
>>46437991
You fundamentally misunderstand their situation.
It is not that they are infertile, or super slow to breed (they do breed slower than humans though.) Their main issue is that they have an actual, physical population cap in the form of soul stones, that prevents them from just fucking like rabbits. The Craftworld Eldar do not want to have children if they cannot ensure that the child will also have a soulstone, and soulstones are super hard to come by.

Dark Eldar do not have the above problem, due to their philosophy of not giving a single shit about anyone besides themselves (and they themselves intend to live for ever, so having a soulstone would be pointless in their view). That is one of the reasons, along with the whole speed growing of embryos, why there are so much more Dark Eldar around than there are Craftworlders.
>>
Why don't they create more soulstones?
>>
>>46440874
don't they have to harvest them from the EoT?
>>
>>46440937
There was a short story
Basically the tortured souls of those eldar who didn't escape are on crime worlds as ghosts
When these get hit by some weird warp wave they turn into soul stones
Of course that didn't explain pre fall soul stones that have been in the fiction
>>
>>46437991
Because, among other reasons, the Eldar are rather committed to being the "dying race" both literally and philosophically. The Eldar goddess of fertility and life is trapped in cage and fed poison on a daily basis by the universal god of taint, death, stagnation, decay, and apathy. A god of which his form as a lesser daemon is sombre and fatalist. It may very well not be possible for the Eldar to get a "second wind" while this situation is maintained.

Soulstones aren't created.
They are harvested from Crone worlds, where they rain down from the sky due to warp energy merging with real space.

>>
>>46440779
>>46440874
Tbh, untill the 6th edition Eldar dex stating that Soulstones only form on the Crone Worlds, they were supposed to crystalize in any places with warp/realspace overlap, including around the mouths of webway portals. Crone Worlds were simply the place they were by far the most abundant. Most people seemd to have forgotten that, though, since specifics of where soulstones come from was only really mentioned in some old fluff and writers latched on the idea of Eldar having to recover them from EoT because that's more grimdark.
>>
Does anyone have any pics of space elves to share?
>>
>>46437991
The majority of Dark Elder are in fact factory made test tube babies. However the fact that they do so likely make the Craftworld Eldar more displeased about the idea of doing anything close to that.

>>46438222
> It would be like the usa losing everyone but the few people in Nebraska and New Mexico and one of the two groups becoming the Dark Eldar.

More like New York City becoming the Dark Eldar ( Commorragh was the capitol of the old Eldar empire) but with out the hinder lands to support itself via normal means. Nebraska would be the Exodites, and oil rigs became the Craftworlds.

Well, of course. Rangers embody the natural lust for war, danger and curiosity that Eldar actually have if they wouldn't have to calm down or torture other Souls because of Slaanesh. Craftworld Eldars fear them, because there is a chance that just by having some fun outside of the Craftworld the Ranger could attract the Chaos.

Reminds me of a story where a Keeper of Secrets disguises itself as an Eldar male and seduces the daughter of some Craftworld's leader, who had traveled outside for whatever reason.

The KoS was able to sneak in with its "lover" and open its webway portals from the inside, and even possess a sleeping Avatar as daemons tore everything apart.

No. The humans outnumber the Eldar so much that after some generations you would mostly have 98% humans with the occasional human that looks somewhat different in top tier positions.

Personal canon.

The Eldar aren't biological. Not anymore, not really. They have cells... sort of. They're more like engineered soul-suits than biological creatures. They broke science a long time ago, but now they're stuck with the consequences: difficult, brittle bodies designed for immortality but not for endless war. They can make more, but it's slow, and there's always a chance the Great Enemy gets to them before they're ready and ruins everything. They don't "breed", but the engineering behind making new Eldar is was never designed to be fast or scaleable. After all, when you're the undisputed rulers of the galaxy, hedonistic beyond belief, why bother worrying about something from your distant, messy, biological past?

This is actually a really good point. I don't see why it made everyone mad.

Western countries are below the population replacement rate, and generally opt for mass immigration to replace the population. The Eldar can't even do that, because it would either involve stripping the Exodite worlds of their population, or importing murder-druggie-rapists en masse. You'd expect the Eldar to work on this problem, since they're all aware of it, but none do. Much like how the only people IRL who have 10 kids are the IRL Exodites like mormons and shit.

It's not that they reproduce particularly slowly, even - it's just that they're constantly dying because they can't afford to take a couple thousand years and get some excess population. They have to keep meddling in the galaxies affairs, usually militarily, otherwise they all get destroyed.

Everyone and their mom has mentioned soul stones already, but beyond that I think there's few enough of them that inbreeding would become a concern, particularly on the Craftworlds

Actually I think Brighthammer (a less or non-grimdark version of warhammer) has its version of LCB where Talds (and her associates) is evil LIVVI is some noble knight-paladin guy who fell for the charms of evil Taldeer and they had sex and gave birth to an evil Lofn.

Taldeer/Livvi: "Lofn honey, please! What do you want me to do!? Just Open the door and just tell me what do you want!?"

"Please Lofn... I'am your mother/father... Talk to me! Just open the door...

And then they get cryogenically frozen in a "bunker shelter" program with either Livvi or Talds holding baby Lofn, and then some scientists attempt to take baby Lofn from either Livvi or Taldeer.

And then an evil bald man who dresses up like Mad Max and is a named after a cereal brand comes up and just nonchalantly shoots Livvi or Talds killing them.

That would be preferable to childish fanwank about some dow characters, that goes against the nature of both the Eldar, as well as the Imperials.
The influx of /v/ faggots here and the cancerous fanwank they fostered back when DoW was released, still taints this board.

Actually Commorragh would be more like Las Vegas. The capitol of the Eldar Empire was probably somewhere in what is now the Eye of Terror, as that was where most of the planets were located. Commorragh started out as a port city in an important webway junction and became a den of debauchery even before the rest of the Eldar empire went full-on rapemurderorgy-mode because it's location in the webway meant it wasn't under direct jurisdiction of the councils that ruled Eldar society, allowing them to set their own laws (which basically boiled down to "legalize ALL the drugs!").

I agree. But it's not like we're seriously considering LCB or such stuff canon. It's just fun and light-hearted, a break from the constant grimdark. You call it fanwank, and really, fanwank it really is - what fans wish that things could be like, or just want to laugh at and enjoy, and you can argue about character and personality for once instead of what's canon and what's not because hey, it's already gone off the rails.

Then they are twats, who probably are just repeating memes they don't understand or haven't actually realized the point of LCB and what actually spawned it.

Too many people come into 40k thinking that's it's just silly, or just totally grimdark, and can't reconcile the two views in any way.

They do fit the concept of an organic berserker von neumann system, but why did their creators made such a powerful, yet shitty design that leaves behind huge amounts of raw materials in planets? All that ore could be used for things like hard cocoons based on bubbleworld colonies*, and still has a lot of volatiles suitable for organic life.

*Include engines, and this could be the "intergalactic seeds" that become tyranid fleets. Self-sustaining closed ecologies which germinate once sensing resources.

Inbreeding is only a giftwrapped invitation to Slannesh if you go on and on about how perverse it is and how it violates tabooos, then do it anyway.

I don't think Craftworld Eldar necessarily have a problem hiding their souls from Slaanesh in the materium. At the very least it only seems like Farseers and such only have a problem when actively drawing on the Warp,

>>46439330

That was what Xenology said, whether or not it still holds up is unknown.

Considering the Eye of Terror is where the heart of the Eldar empire was it kind of makes sense that you'd only find soulstones there.

What about the many times Taldeer/Livvi would forget about their main quest in trying to find Lofn as either both of them would be too busy building up settlements in broken worlds, hoarding copious amounts of junk, doing menial labor (side quests).

And not to mention trying to gather a following of various companions?

Though which companion would Livvi or Taldeer try to romance then?
