I welcome thee as well! Our kin gather like moths to a flame and with seven we are halfway to full guild strength!
I was thinking about it, and I think a good idea for each of us is describe our characters (name, motives, class/preferred style of combat etc) to get an idea as to where each of us stand in the guild. Post multiple characters if you can't decide on one and feel free to give your character's information in any format you wish. I'll start: Character No.1: Name: Neberus Origins: Unknown at this time (Previous Overlord lost to the Great Sleep)-Now a wandering Lychguard with a collection of crypteks travelling through space on his personal Sycthe Class Harvest Ship on which he has a collection of species on which the crypteks may experiment on. Motives: The destruction of all things psychic and continuing the C'Tan's plan to cut off the warp via Null Field Matrix pylons. Class: Lychuard (Versatile with both Warscythe and Hyperphase Sword+Dispersion Shield)-Power Of A Necron Lord Personality: Cold, calculating but also reserved to himself. The Great Sleep has done little to change his personality, bar the freedom he has from his Overlord now. Character Pic: Only missing a cape.
Name: Zcee Nook Last of the great Exterminators Phaeron of the Sacarelic Dynasty Origin: Sacarelica, A supersized world enginen void ship that stays in between the stars, yet every now and then the rotation of the Galaxy itself sends the mighty (and rather marry sue) war station on a course into a star system. that is gonna send its worlds into oblivion. (gotta take an entire imperial fleet to charge into this bastards void sheilds to overload it) Motives: The Destruction of life simply in the desperate hope of reunite with his farther that has been sucked into the warp. (stupid black stone fortresses) Class: Overlord. Phaeron Class. Personallity: Childish and goffy to the naked eye, a strong contrast to the usual necron. yet underneath the childish gestures, dramatic poses and oneliners (of varring quallity) a Burning hatred to all life lurks just waiting to get released.
My turn! Name: Xanxas Solemnace Protector of the greatest museum Nemesor of Solemnace Origins: One of the many nobles of house Solemnace prior to the biotransferance, he rose in rank to Nemesor of Solemnace due to his tendency to act as his Lord Trazyn's minders, cleaning up all the messes left behind by the eccentric Phaeron in a manor not dissimilar to that of Vargard Obyron's exasperated crusade for his lord Zandrekh. A notable time is his assistance in resolving the incident caused by Trazyn's attempt to "preserve" Lord Imotekh's staff. Motives: Continuation of the Solemnace dynasty, assisting his Lord Trazyn in all conquests, finishing the Cadian pylon system, destroying all Blackstone fortresses, and at long last destroy the Eldar along with their gods and Krork "allies", brining the war in heaven to a close and finally giving him the sense of closure he needs. Currently debating whether the Hrud and Umbra should also be annihilated under the same logic. He strives to keep the ancient traditions of Necrontyr alive, and has an immense personal gallery filled with pieces of Necrontyr culture. To further this, he keeps close ties with the Novokh dynasty. Class: Overlord. Voidreaper as his main weapon he has a Tachyon arrow. He has replaced his normal hands with flayer claws for the more covert "borrowing" operations. He is also equipped with a Resurrection orb, Phylactery, Mindshakle scarabs, Chronometron, Gauntlet of Flame, Phase Shifter, Nightmare Shroud, and Veil of Darkness. His warlord traits are Enduring Will and Honorable Combatant. (for the record, this is my overlord with the equipment I use in apocalypse games, except I cant find Sempiternal weave in 7e, so I left it out ._.') Personality: A lover of Necrontyr culture, the biotransferance and subsequent loss of most artists and such saddened him greatly. As such, he has accumulated the galaxies largest collection of artifacts of Necrontyr culture in his personal gallery on Solemnace. He is utterly loyal to his Lord, but often exasperated by his antics. Unfortunately, Trazyn had always been like this, so he could not blame it on the great sleep. He hates the old ones and all their allies and creations with a burning passion, and often declares that the war in heaven is not over until the last Eldar lies dead at his feet. He obeys the ancient warrior codes without question, which can sometimes cause a bit of trouble when it forces him to accept a challenge from an avatar of Khaine or the like. He thusly loves the Novokh dynasty and Is on good terms with their leadership. Unfortunately, his lord has rubbed off on him a bit, as his collection of wargear shows. But it matters not, as the simplest way to find out more about him is to watch Trazyn's newest acquisition, and see the mighty Nemesor that follows loyally behind him. Side note: Later on, maybe we will and The to the names based on in game accomplishments (ex Trazyn THE Infinite, Imotekh THE Stormlord, Zarthusa THE ineffable)
I'll take a go Name: Sol, Judiciar of the Triarch (Note: that's just custom not actual honorary) Background: Originally a Small Lord, of an unnoticeable dynasty, Sol rose to power amongst the dynasties, becoming a chief adviser to the Silent King. Ever Loyal Sol followed Blindly as Biotransference turned the necrontyr civilization into machines. yet... Upon the realization the C'Tan had turned them in soulless machines and the departure of Szarekh the Necron did not go into hibernation as the others did, instead watching over the dynastys along with the praetorians to find solace from the sins of his actions, whiling away 60 thousand years in the galaxy. Motives: Driven by honor and the remembrance of the Silent King and the old Sol acts to uphold the honor the tradition of the Triarch. Class: Lord, Armed with a warscythe Personality: Reserved and tactical, the cataclysmic loss of both Szarekh and their whole culture has Lead Sol to be rather quiet. While incredibly proficient in the art of war after 60million years sol still refuses to command and instead fight as an independant being, least a cure be found and countless lives are spared. Despite the seemingly "noble" course he has decided to take he is none the less ruthless in all matter concerning war therefore scores of other species can and will be eradicated for the sake of reducing the loss on necrontyr civilization as a whole.
Name. 057 Unknown origin. Class. Cryptek Background. Was captured by the elder millennia ago, he was caught on a primative planet whilst conducting experiments on a very primative species of ape to help the necron dynasty's defeat the old ones. But due to a small miscalculation was unable to fully complete his experiments. It was on this planet that he was captured by the elder and taken to the black libary. We're he was experimented on endlessly, being taken apart and rebuilt over and over again, never being allowed to fully phase out due to some elder trickery. He escaped recently due to another prisoner escaping from the libary. And he only escaped because he took his own life and was a able to finally phase out and re emerge on Arkona. Unfortunatly due to the vast experiments of the elder he has lost his memory of who he was but still retains his complete personality, or sometimes other personalities. Motives. Pure and utter hatred for all elder. He will pursue anyone relentlessly, utterly destroying everything in his way. Almost verging on overkill on a single opponent. Then onto the next. He has been known to carry the bones of slain elder warriors to use to kill other elder. Personality. Due to the experimentation of the elder he is untrusted by other necrons, seeing him as weak for being captured. He has no memory of his name or past but sometimes images flood back ghosts of his past. He has multiple personalities ( due to the experiments of the elder, some personalities are elder or other sentient beings) he has difficulty separating past present and future and personalities. Making him unusual as sometimes he will joke with other necrons and no one else getting the jokes. His ultimate aim is to finish his work he set out a millennia ago to wipe out the elder this time. But first he has to remember were that planet was.
