Any who survive these manifestations have only the scantest memories of what truly occurred. The power of the Masque's curse allows her to recreate events yet to come, from the caging of Loec and the purging with fire of Nurgle's garden, all the way up to the legendary Rhan'k'adanra, the final battle and twilight of the gods. Not all the dances are from the past - they are drawn from all points in time. Ĭonversely, the Pageant of Pain, re-enacting one of Slaanesh's great victories over Khorne, is a tableau of spasmodic movements that ends with the entranced cast tearing at each other's throats and eyes. In the Dance of Dreaming, where the slumbering prince waits to be born, the Masque and her chorus drift in sedentary and languid movements. The dance's tempo changes as the story of Slaanesh progresses. She danced for the joy of performance and wove enrapturing displays so dazzling that they could strike even immortal gods silent with awe.

The Masque of Slaanesh, known also as the Eternal Dancer, Accursed Maiden, and Darkling Deceiver was once the most favoured of all the Daemonettes.
