Having said that there.....
In the book Chaos Child (even though this evidence to the contrary is fluff)
I am pretty sure that the Eldar Jaq Draco and Co captured a solitare...
He did appear to be the leader of the Harlequins that were on that planet.
So I dunno, I think that he _is_ the Harlequin NCO / CO as such....
Anyone like to confirm / deny that which my memory serves....
Or traitors....
