The only problem with perfection is that once it's done, it's done. The being in question is stuck like that forever and to alter them alters the perfection they have. Which ironically enough is an imperfection in an of itself.

[@brianburk4405]

What perfection? They are just empty vessels, carying what little remains of the people they once were. Their souls have been consumed, wich means they have been consumed. Necrons are just the deadly echoes of a race dead eons ago, not too different from a booby trapped city from a lost civilisation.

My favourite lore about the Necron Warriors is that they somestimes "scream" when destroyed. Some think it is a warning to our necrons. But a more disturbing notion is that it is the only thing that necron remembers from its mortal life. The ability to scream in horror as oblivion takes them.

In Lore, each Necron Warrior is as Durable as an Astartes, they have near perfect regeneration, and if damaged badly, can be easily repaired by their Tomb. It takes fuckloads of work to damage a single one, and there are as many of them (if not more) as there are Humans in the Imperium. Their guns basically ignore any type of armor, and turn you to dust immediately.

I bloody love necrons. When I first started getting warhammer minis i saw the skelly bois and thought “an ancient robot race with an unknown number of reinforcements who are just waking up from a long power nap from a huge galactic war they lost and their Egyptian themed????? Sign me the fuck up.” Thus my warhammer debt started.

[@heathermillsphantomlimb9314]

They are absolutely awesome, but they didn’t lose the War in Heaven. They won after killing the Old Ones and enslaving the C’Tan, but their numbers were depleted. They knew they couldn’t beat the Aeldari (who were the prominent ruling faction, at the time), so they went to sleep until the Eldar population dwindled enough for them to rise and retake their empire.

becuase necron warrior lack intelligence and self awarness; when a lord (or any other controlled unit) is dead the necron still remain strong but much less effective.

As cool and scary as Necrons are, you shouldn't forget that within each metal cage lies the soul of a living being, one destined to live, feel, and die. The fact they cannot do any of this torments them to no end.

[@OCtheG]

Not entirely, souls were lost to the C’Tan as part of the biotransference, only those with particularly strong personalities or the royalty given higher quality machinery maintain a semblance of their former personality, and the hollowed feeling that remains plagues those who can remember having a soul to no end.

[@spaghettimkay5795]

@@OCtheG thanks for clearing that up

[@AsuraBoss]

Well, you say souls, but the whole reason they’re machines now is because they chose to sell them to the C’tan in exchange for immortality. Came at a cost, of course. The hierarchy of the Necron dynasties decides how much autonomy each Necron has, and anything below an Overlord is nearly or completely an automaton.

Given they had souls like everyone else it's generally agreed upon they'd be psychic in some way like every warhammer species with a soul or it's energies.

[@mothichorror446]

There's like zero mention of them having psyker powers before the biotransference, but there is mention of how their efforts to extend their lives resulted in a high level of technology. You can probably assume from this that any psychic potential they had wasn't particularly potent, similar to the Tau.

With what very, and I mean very little that I know about them, it seems like in an average selling their souls has left them purposeless. Only those with higher levels of thinking/power have more to do than being drone like. Do these superiors feel the loathing and anguish of their followers with their inability to enjoy life like this? Or perhapse it burdens them to know that there are so few true "individuals" left of them? If reclaiming their souls again is so paramount then why do they fight among themselves so much? So many lore questions to ask about Warhammer but the necrons in particular.
