Biography
Cegorach the Laughing God was a deity in the pantheon of the Eldar race.
In ancient Eldar myth it was said to be the Laughing God who tricked the Outsider into eating other C'tan.
It is said that during the fight between Slaanesh and Khaine the Laughing God hid behind Khaine for protection, in the aftermath of the struggle the Laughing God fled to the Webway where Slaanesh could not find him. He still resides there, and is the only known being to know exactly where every door in the webway leads. Those Eldar who follow him were known as the Harlequins and were protected from Slaanesh in a different way from their Craftworld brethren. While Craftworld Eldar wear Spirit Stones which absorb their souls when they die, Harlequins are directly protected by their God, becoming one with him on death. The only exception to this is the Solitaire whose soul must be won from Slaanesh by the Laughing God.
