NECRONS Summarized: By SimoTheFinlandized / Paul Palazzolo - 2022 CE; The Necrons are an ancient race
of mechanical warriors resembling
skeletons, who used to be organic
beings called the Necrontyr. The
Necrontyr were tricked by the
godlike beings called the C'tan,
who gave them powerful weapons
and promised them eternal life.
Once the Necrontyr conquered the
galaxy, they realised "eternal life"
meant being turned into machines
without souls and individuality.
Now called Necrons, only the
strongest kept their personalities
and emotions. The Necrons turned
on the C'tan and shattered them,
capturing them in Shards to use as
weapons. The fight against the
C'tan had weakened the Necrons,
so they chose to enter stasis on
their Tomb Worlds, to sleep until
the galaxy was one again full of
life for them to harvest. The
Necrons have slowly started to
awaken in the 41st millennium,
ready to strike out into the galaxy
once more. Necrons are made of a
substance called "Living Metal"
that is very resistant to damage,
but also allows them to repair
themselves when destroyed. When
too many Necrons of an army are
defeated the rest "Phase Out" by
teleporting back to their tombs, to
rebuild their strength to fight
another day.
