    I wish there were more Harlequin novels. A friend ran a game of Black Crusade where we played as Eldar instead of Chaos and I played a Harlequin of the Masque of the Frozen Stars. Mostly because they're paint scheme largely doesn't involve the diamond motley.
    Still so much fun to play and have loved the Harlequins since.
    I know people are disgruntled that a novelisation had them butcher Custodes but if I genuinely had to think of a faction where its members should be able to go toe to toe with Custodes it would be the Harlequins.

    To be honest, of all the roles one could live in the 40k universe: the Harlequins seem the most appealing to me.
    Life in the webway also seems strangely cozy. Like when you are comfy and relatively secure indoors as a thunder(warp)storm rages outside.

    My theory is Jaghatai was recruited by the twisted path and now works with Cegorach.
