@@Wahapendium The Celestial Orrery, it's necron tech, a machine that is a perfect representation of the entire galaxy. Not only that, it's real time that changes instantly with the galaxy, and if the Necrons decide to use it it can snuff out planets and stars like they are God's. The only reason it hasn't iced everybody is because it's guarded by a dynasty af Necron on their crown world of Thanatos

Nice choice, scholar!

[@tjm11015]

Trazyn is basically the game's representation of a hobbyist. He sits on the outside of time and the setting to see the big picture, and appreciates it. He collects the parts that interest him, capturing beings, weapons, vehicles, armies, cities, battles and even entire worlds! Freezing it all in a snapshot so he can enjoy them whenever he wants, HE IS THE WAARHAMMER NERD🤓

By now I’m pretty much bored by most other 40K characters, yet this guy is one of the few exceptions. Thanks for the story 👊👍

I know it's a little off topic but since i'm quite new to 40k lore, can somebody explain to me why the Necronteer were technologically able to sustain an intergalactic empire but couldn't protect themselves from their home stars radiation? That doesn't make sense to me especially because this is the reason for their quest for imortality, right?

[@beardfistthegoldenone7273]

Their DNA was wrecked before they became an interstellar empire.

[@BiGRodonthetrack]

Agree ^ their species was already evolved to live on their radiated home world so their whole race was biologically cursed

[@ThreeLeggedBear]

Necrontyr never made it off their homeworld until after they became the Necrons.

[@paulus_corvinus2540]

@@ThreeLeggedBear Aah, okay from one of the lore videos I got the impression that they already had an interstellar empire before their bio transformation. Thanks for clearing that up!

[@BiGRodonthetrack]

@@ThreeLeggedBear yes they did lol so is so wrong. They made an empire so vast they met the old ones and grew extremely jealous because they wouldn’t share their secrets of immortality. They started the Great War in heaven because of this and that led them to meeting or finding the Ctan. Which then led to their enslavement they necronteer where mortal slaves to the Ctan gods for a short time before the Ctan granted them immortality through taking the entire races souls and making them into living metal
