Merry Christmas to you friends and Happy New Year!

My wife and I decided to make a small congratulation on behalf of our small and modest studio. May your gray everyday life become as bright and colorful as our festive Tyberos. And may all wars finally end.

Once upon a time my fiancé had a handful of glowcrons

Here's one I painted up to join my Nihilakh army

#warhammer 40k #wh40k #miniature painting #necrons #miniatures #necron #nihilakh dynasty #he bought them during the transitional period from clear rods to the modern-day barrels #so the other necron models he had just... have the current versions #none of his immortals have the clear rods either. the manual he got with the box of that time showed a mixture of glowcrons and new! #i thought it was a fun bit of history 😄 #i like the old and new rods more or less the same so i'll keep them as they are #also i have decided my nihilakh warriors are still Very Gold and Fancy and the higher up the hierarchy it will only get fancier 😆 #the overlord(s) i will run them with are haughtily prideful of their wealth and would want to show off at every opportunity i think

Trazyn finally manages to steal Imotekh's staff, and the Nihilakh dynasty's panicked attempts to find some legal loophole that saves them from being invaded by the Stormlord somehow results in a political marriage between Trazyn and Orikan. Noone is happy about this except for Zandrekh, who insists on being Orikan's best man.

I would read the shit out of this book

I don’t know if they ever threw any patches out to keep it playable in Current Edition but if so, it strikes me that you could use that old Renegades and Heretics list to play the Necron vassals of those among the Newcrons that have such things

Wouldn’t be a good idea but it would be a cool modelling project

Humans serving someone like the Nihilakh, who apparently order the populations of conquered worlds to build huge monuments for their glory and shit. And who Trazyn at least reckons will keep humanity around to serve them. Who knows, with all that crazy Dark Imperium shit going on, if a Necron Dynasty started repairing Pylons or building new ones or whatever and curbing all the Chaos bullshit the locals might serve them willingly. Trazyn shows there’s precedent with his pet scribe, who did better under him than under other Imperials.

Wouldn’t be a great society to live in even in the best case, we know the Necrontyr let their lower classes live in mud brick houses even after they’d developed FTL because they didn’t value life, but it’s 40k. It could be worse.

Anyway the R&H list was mostly guard units with some gimmicks (random leadership, mix and match weapons) and a few novel unit types, and you could use it for a wide range of stuff: There were chaos options, but you didn’t need to take them. You could just load up on Apostate Preachers and angry mobs and have them be a religious or even secular uprising, go heavy on wargear options to represent “Xenos heretech” and model some Ogryns as Ork mercenaries to play a human society which is friendly with aliens, take 5 rogue psykers and a refractor field on every character possible to model a psychic uprising, etc. Was a pretty rudimentary list but it was what we had.

So for Necron vassals you’d obviously avoid the psykers. But you could take Chaos Marines with Infiltrate as an Elite choice* and they had almost the same statline as Necron Warriors; use Warrior models as standins and have them infiltrate to represent Necrons phasing in to support their vassals (or more likely, using them as cannon fodder to avoid fighting themselves). You could even justify the lack of Resurrection Protocols by saying they didn’t care enough to self-repair for the sake of their slaves, and just phased out once injured.

Take a few Enforcers (special unit type, execute people to stop units breaking. Bit like some commissar rules I think, never played muc IG on tabletop) and load em up with carapace armour, refractor fields and plasma pistols to be “Necron Overseers”. Give them a glowy green whip, be a nice conversion job. If the plassy overheats it’s because the Dynasty sent the most fucked up and damaged Necrons to corral the inferiors and they’re falling apart, obviously.

Give the guys Egyptian themes to show them aping their overlords. Grab a few old mud brick buildings and spooky black obelisks as terrain pieces. Convert a squad of the elite human infantry, can’t remember their names, to look like they’re trying to cosplay Immortals.

Somehow they’re still nicer to work for than half the Imperium.

Nihilakh Ascendant!

*you could run these as loyalists to make an army of Chapter Serfs, come to think of it

"Samples"

(Author's Note: @relax-and-read-on and I were talking about another Primarch AU and the subject of an old headcanon I share with my IRL best friend about the nature of the Bararan Overlords. This "driblet" (tiny little fic) more or less sums it up and includes some writing I'm proud of.

This scene comes from a larger AU I share with my IRL friend where Magnus the Red was raised by Trazyn the Infinite instead of humans. I'm not ready to turn this into a full fic at the moment, so this is sadly all I've got for now.

Very mild spoilers for The Buried Dagger; the usual Trazyn-y shenanigans.)

Mortarion sat in the middle of the floor, bound in chains of necrodermis.  At the sight of his brother, he struggled against them.  It was a futile gesture—even he could not break through these bonds.  Magnus knelt before him, bringing them level to each other.

"Where are we?  Why did you take us?  Where is Calas?!" Mortarion snarled.

Magnus held up a hand.  "We are on Solemnace.  And I did not take you.  Trazyn the Infinite did."

"Who the hell is he?"  Mortarion tried to kick out with his legs, but they were bound as well as his hands.

Magnus took a deep breath.  "Trazyn the Infinite, Overlord of Solemnace, is the archivist of the Nihilakh Dynasty."  He noticed the way his brother twitched at his father's title.  "He's the…person who raised me."

Mortarion stared at him, a look of shock and disgust on his face.

Magnus shifted.  "Pops—Trazyn—he's a Necron.  An empire of undying metal beings.  The Necrons were flesh and blood, just like we humans are, once.  They were once the Necrontyr.  Then the Star-Gods betrayed them with the curse of biotransference.  They were all put into metal bodies millions of years ago."  Magnus played with the hem of his robe.  "Almost all of them.  One minor dynasty was spared.  They were far away from all the rest, and they had pledged their souls to a different god, one who protected them from biotransference."

Suspicion dawned in Mortarion’s eyes.  He swallowed.  "And these…Necrontyr…the ones who survived biotransference…who…who were they…?"

"A small cult.  The Dewerekh Dynasty.  They settled on a small, savage world and ruled it, undisturbed, for millions of years."

Mortarion shivered.  "What does this have to do with me.  Or with Calas?  Where is he?!"

"In a stasis cell for now."  Magnus took another deep breath.  "Mortarion…the Dewerekh Dynasty…they were the Overlords of Barbarus.  You are the last person in the entire galaxy to be raised by a Necrontyr.  The Necrons barely remember their adult lives before biotransference, let alone their childhoods.  As debased and barbaric as he was by Necrontyr standards, Necare was one of the last members of their species, and the last one to raise a child.  And even better, you have an eidetic memory.  You remember it all!  You hold the key in your mind to uncover priceless insights of a lost culture!"  Magnus was leaning in closer, consumed, in spite of himself, with enthusiasm for their rare find.

Mortarion stared at him in horror, his body pulled away from Magnus.  He licked his lips.  "And Calas…his father was a, a Necrontyr…"

Magnus nodded.  "The last biological child of a Necrontyr.  His blood is diluted with human, and corrupted by your geneseed, but it still might hold the secret to their genetic past."

Mortarion clenched his fists.  "So what will your father do with us?  Experiment on us?  Torture us for information?"

Magnus shook his head.  "No.  You're too valuable to damage.  He'll interview you.  Find out what you know.  Take tissue samples from Typhon.  And when he's done, he'll put you on display."

His brother's fists tightened.  "No.  I will not let it happen."

"That's the thing, brother," Magnus sighed.  He reached into his interdimensional pocket and pulled out two mindshackle scarabs.  "You won't have a choice."

[gsirvitor]

Baby I want you to lore dump everything you know about skell daddy trazyn because that would turn me the fuck on so hard

Trazyn the Infinite? Oh God.

Prior to Bio-Transference Trazyn was a simple Necrontyr scribe and Chief Archivist who oversaw the mummification of the Necrontyr Phaerons.

According to the lore he can't remember mostd of his past life due to self-installed protection protocols, most likely to prevent him from going insane.

He often misremembers much of his past, such as the fact he insists he was physically forced into Biotransference when others, such as Orikan, claim he embraced it.

He awoke from the Great Sleep prematurely and during that same time sought to expand his collection, he claimed that he would share it with the rest of his race when they awoke, hint, he didn't.

While he is officially a member of the Nihilakh Dynasty he operates independently, having alienated himself from other Necrons and is known to be persona non grata to the Sautekh Dynasty.

Even then he is barely tolerated by the Nekthyst Dynasty due to the services he is capable of providing, personally I wouldn't trust him farther than I could huck him.

Trazyn's philosophy of preserving the past is most likely due to his past as an archivist, a quite devoted one, but due to his protection protocols on his memory the need to preserve the past became something far more, well, all I can say is he's the best Pokémon trainer in the 41st millennium.

Trazyn is by nature what the Blood Ravens wish they were, a true Magpie, he is known to hold many technologies and relics that are so rare to say they are priceless is an understatement.

His nature also means that while he hates exploring the galaxy, his desire to gather artifacts forces him to go out among the riffraff.

However, like the true neet he is, he often sends copies of himself to do his work for him, which annoys Trazyn's enemies to no end as they discover the Necron they've slain is not him but a body double.

Best part is, when his enemies do find these body doubles it is most often a trap laid by Trazyn, so he can break in and steal their shit.

For instance, he has tried on two occasions to swipe the Spear of Vulkan from the Salamanders Forgefather, he failed miserably both times.

See, the cool thing about Trazyn, is that his collection is perfectly preserved, using Necron time bases technology he stops, or rather slows his exhibits aging, many of his displays are very much alive, simply trapped in time.

Let us go over what he has stolen;

The last high council of Idharae Craftworld

An exhibit showcasing the massacres on Tragus

A warband of orks attacking an unknown blue-shelled invertebrate xenos species

The catacombs of Calth during the Underground War

An exhibit labeled the “Death of Lord Solar Macharius” which is one-tenth composed of Imperial Guardsmen who are 300 years from the wrong time period

A C’Tan shard that Trayzn has called the “source” of his power and the crown jewel of his collection Wraithbone choir of Altansar Preserved head of Sebastian Thor Ossified husk of an Enslaver A giant man wearing baroque Power Armour Brother Cassiel of the Blood Angels, seconded to the Deathwatch. His face was frozen in a moment of fear Carnac World Spirit shrine Acabrius War Catachan regiments A temporal device containing the Tyranid invasion of Vuros, which had been sparked by Trayzn himself (Disposed of after several full-scale battles caused by Tyranid breakouts) Horus Heresy-era Ultramarines Vostroyan Firstborn Regiments Lost Tanith Regiments Salamanders thought lost during the Klovian disaster A Custodes

Inquisitor Greyfax and her retinue (escaped)

The Bell of Saint Gersthal (disposed of after causing irreparable damage to his forces and collection)

A twelve foot tall Krork in power armor more advanced than Astartes Power Armor A damaged but still functioning Webway portal A troupe of Harlequins A massive stock of uncorrupted Emperor’s Children geneseed (traded to Fabius Bile) A perfect clone of the Primarch Fulgrim prior to his chaos corruption

And much more.

Hell during the 13th black Crusade Trazyn helped Cadia fight off Chaos, not out of wanting to aide humanity but because a Chaos outbreak would impede his collect-a-thon.

He stuck a Tau diplomat in a jar because he'd never had a species send a diplomat before, so it was unique.

Point is, if you have a unique coin, never again minted, he will most likely torch your planet, or sector of the galaxy, if you don't hand it over.

sudden burst of necron activity brought me here, you got a favourite dynasty and whatnot or do u just enjoy the two funky little old men who love time shit

i guess Nihilakh? apparently the whole dynasty's a bunch of treasure hunters, not just Trazyn

I've had an idea for my own Necron look for a while, though

so, picture this, a dynasty set to rest under a world that slowly becomes overgrown in a massive jungle, and when they awaken, their bronze Necrodermis carapaces are laced with flowering vines, making them into walking gardens

i call them the Nebet-Tekh

[spg-msi-tpoh-blog]

Thoughts are invading today. I have an idea for a trazyn and orikan story but not the best at fulfilling my own idea of it. If you want please take this idea. Trazyn has a suitress from the times of flesh. The Nihilakh pushed for it trying to pull Trazyn back in line somewhat. His suitress is a bit obsessed with him and in the past knowingly and unknowingly sabotaged his collection. Thinking Trazyn should spend more time courting her.

Trazyn is doing his best to get out of this. He hoped she would never wake up. With more pressure coming from the Dynasty he is cornered in to hiding behind Imotekh. He spots Imotekh at a court function and knows he could use Imotekh as a shield. He can get more time to get out of this mess. He reluctantly offers some of his gallery to help in Imotekh's next excursion.

Imotekh knows Trazyn hides some useful things in that gallery of his. So he agrees to help if he and orikan can go and see what is of use. Trazyn is reluctant but his suitress is starting to call for him. So in a bit of a panic as she slightly scares him. He agrees puting him in a position where he must get along with orikan so Imotekh will continue to help him, work on the secrets of his gallery from all coming to light, and get rid of his suitress one way or another.

The suitress starts to bother orikan because she knows Trazyn has a rivalry with him. This makes Imotekh annoyed, Trazyn pissed( orikan is his to annoy), and orikan is baffled, annoyed, and a bit wary( sees why the Nihilakh think she could reign in Trazyn).

Imotekh starts pushing Trazyn and Orikan together so the two troublemakers are in one place, and the annoying lady (hopefully) learns her place. Orikan is aware of this and is embarrassed and is exasperated about this whole endeavor. Trazyn is unaware of what Imotekh is thinking for the most part. He is already under a lot of stress.
