Now, after sixty million standard years of dormancy, a great purpose begins. Entombed in stasis-crypts for millions of Terran years, they have slumbered through the aeons, waiting for the galaxy to heal from the wounds of a long and bloody war. They have become instead ruthless, undying killing machines who are determined to exert their mastery over the galaxy once more.Īcross the galaxy, this ancient and terrible species is stirring back to life. Yet out of a desire for vengeance against the more fortunate long-lived, ancient xenos people called the Old Ones, and the trickery of the godlike intelligences known as the C'tan, the Necrons shed their original organic forms and lost all forms of compassion and empathy. The Necrons are a completely robotic humanoid species whose technological prowess is probably unmatched by any of the other intelligent species of the galaxy. At long last, however, they are beginning to awaken from their Tomb Worlds, for the galaxy is ripe for conquest and the restoration of the Necron Empire since the disappearance of the Old Ones more than 60 million standard years ago. The Necrons are ancient beyond reckoning, predating even the birth of the Aeldari. They are the soulless creations and former servants of the ancient C'tan, the terrible Star Gods of Aeldari myth. The Necrons are a mysterious xenos species of humanoid, robotic skeletal warriors that have lain dormant in their stasis-tombs for more than 60 million Terran years, though they have begun to awaken at last. The Ankh of the Triarch, ancient royal symbol of the unified Necron Empire still used and respected by every current Necron dynasty. Inquisitor Bronislaw Czevak at the Conclave of Har " There is a terrible darkness descending upon the galaxy, and we shall not see it ended in our lifetimes."
