When they are not reclining around their master's throne, the Heralds of Slaanesh serve the god in other ways. Primarily, the handmaidens act as lieutenants in the Dark Prince's Legions of Excess, leading the Lesser Daemons of the legions' constituent cavalcades to fulfil the desires of each legion's ruling Keeper of Secrets.

Infernal Enrapturesses [3] (also named Muses of Agony, Bringers of Discord and Heralds of the Choir Infernal) [4] are Heralds who play harps made from their victims. Playing the harp during battles allows an Enrapturess to bolster the summoning of her brethren and send out sonic waves that shred her enemies.

On the battlefields of the Mortal Realms, the heartstring lyre of your Infernal Enrapturess will prove a valuable asset in the shooting phase: Tranceweavers are favored Heralds of Slaanesh, that are raw manifestations of sensory excess and wilful cruelty. These Daemonettes flow across the battlefield with inhuman grace, keening gleeful war cries as they exhort their fellows to greater acts of sadistic bliss-giving and lay enemies low with the razor caress of their talons. [5] Notable Heralds Objective markers represent objects of tactical or strategic import that both sides are attempting to secure, such as valuable artefacts, vital supplies or communications nodes. If a mission uses objective markers, it will state where they are located on the battlefield. These can be represented using any suitable marker, but we recommend using round markers that are 40mm in diameter. Fiends also have a number of other advantages that help make them exceptional all-rounders. Not only does their sheer size lend them great survivability (they each have 4 Wounds, no less!), but they can bring down even high-value targets with their vicious barbed tail in Warhammer 40,000 or combination of Barbed Stingers and Deadly Venom ability in Warhammer Age of Sigmar:

Playing the harp during battles allows an Enrapturess to bolster the summoning of her brethren and send out sonic waves that shred her enemies.When setting objective markers up on the battlefield, place them so they are centred on the point specified by the mission. When measuring distances to and from objective markers, measure to and from the closest part of them. Models can move over objective markers as if they were not there, but they cannot end a move on top of an objective marker.

While they are masterful warriors and leaders, it is also to these depraved creatures that the Lord of Excess entrusts its more subtle machinations -- such as acting as temptresses within the varied circles of torment that surround the Pleasure Palace in the Realm of Chaos, or seducing weak-willed mortals to their god's cause -- as of all Slaanesh's Daemons, they are most sensitive to the delicacy that the Dark Prince's ploys require on occasion. Heralds of Slaanesh appear to mortals as figures of horrifying beauty, beguiling their minds before rending their bodies. Realm of Chaos: Wrath and Rapture, Sourcebook, pg. 16 ( Warhammer 40,000 and Warhammer Age of Sigmar Boxed Set) If your opponent has any psykers to hand, they would do well to keep them clear of your Infernal Enrapturess, as her Discordant Disruption ability will make any attempt to manifest a psychic power a risky business. Even the most formidable Psykers such as Ahriman and Eldrad Ulthran will be far from immune to her unsettling harmonies: During the Declare Battle Formations step, for each Leader in your army, if your army also includes one or more of that Leader’s Bodyguard units, you can select one of those Bodyguard units. That Leader will then attach to that Bodyguard unit for the duration of the battle and is said to be leading that unit. Each Bodyguard unit can only have one Leader attached to it.Of all the Chaos Gods, it is Slaanesh whose desires and practises are most like those of a mortal ruler, and to this end it surrounds itself with a court to attend and entertain it. Made up of the immortal and the immoral alike, only those in great favour are given the honour of basking in Slaanesh's presence. One or more units from your army can start to perform this action at the end of the Move Units step of your Movement phase if they are within 1" of a Hatchway. This action can be performed by any unit that is not within Engagement Range of any enemy models, even if that unit is being affected by a rule that would normally prevent it from performing actions. The action is completed at the end of your Movement phase if no enemy models are within 1" of that Hatchway. If there are any enemy models within 1" of that Hatchway, your opponent can attempt to prevent the action from being completed. If they do so, roll off with your opponent; each player adds the Strength characteristic of one of their models that is within 1" of that Hatchway to their respective scores. If you win, the action is completed; otherwise, the action fails. If completed, that Hatchway opens (if it was closed) or closes (if it was open).

Unfortunately for the Daemons, the Harlequins of the Masque of the Laughing Circus discovered the world's plight and brought the forces of the Craftworld Saim-Hann and the Drukhari of Commorragh to save the Maiden World. However, the Daemons proved victorious and defeated the Aeldari, with Lustfury personally slaying many before the daemonic legions proceeded to then wreak havoc on the now-defenceless Maiden World.I can show you a portal that can take you to a special place. There you will experience pleasure without conscience, delights without boundaries. There you will find wealth without working, gratifications beyond count. Won't you come with me?" An Infernal Enrapturess plays a harp made from the body of one of her victims to defeat the foes of Slaanesh. You then make a Charge roll for the charging unit by rolling 2D6. The result is the maximum number of inches each model in that unit can be moved if a Charge move is possible. For a Charge move to be possible, the Charge roll must be sufficient to enable the charging unit to end that move: A Herald of Slaanesh is an elite form of Daemonette, a Lesser Daemon of Slaanesh, the Prince of Chaos.
