The Necrons are a race of mechanical warriors, created from the Necrontyr. They have lain dormant in their stasis-tombs for sixty million years. They are ancient beyond reckoning, pre-dating even the Eldar. At long last, however, they are beginning to awaken, seeking to reestablish the supremacy of the Necron Dynasties over the Galaxy once more.[4a] The domain of the Necrons is known to themselves as the Infinite Empire.

I don’t think he went to other galaxies just the outermost east of the galaxy, beyond the eastern fringe and the light of the astronomicon, their is a fair amount of stars there where primitives might be.
"The Silent king exterminated species that were threats to his people"
Brick and DK: *Aww, good wholesome king*
"The Emperor exterminated species that were threats to his people"
Brick and DK: *Nooo! Evil stupid tyrant!*
Suffer not the xenos to live
It's because Necrons are slightly more based than the Imperium
I think it's easier to sympathise for the Emperor's victims is that we actually get to see them and see how quite a few of them were actually just minding their own business, whereas we don't get to see that with the Silent King.
But both are, let's say, problematic monarchs to stan.
Not sure what the necrons did. But the Emperor of Mankind declared humans would rule the stars. So, aliens would obviously be their enemies.
Tbf the Old Ones were dicks
Over the Christmas weekend my friends and I played a 40k Horde mode made by poorhammer. It was basically four 500 point armies vs 5th faction that periodically spawns in reinforcements. I was the attacker because I have so many Necron models. T5 I rolled so well on my reinforcements that I spawned in all 4 ctan. It was hilarious.
How kind of the overlord to play fair and send only one ctan per army

@@jellicledry1380 Ah yes patronizing without explanation, thanks.
It's funny that they mentioned Fullmetal alchemist since Alphonse is basically a necon. Especially the whole, "I must scream but don't have any lungs"
Another thing to keep in mind is the whole myth around the Silent King might not be him sucking himself off but other dynasties sucking him off instead. While a lot of dynasties do hate him and will never listen to him there's also just as many that will drop whatever they're doing the second he asks something of them.
Honestly really funny imagining a dynasty saying all this shit to him and the king just goes Ciaphas Cain mode saying "haha yeah I definitely subjugated whole galaxies while you were asleep for you all and they definitely didn't get all devoured by Tyranids. Just for the sake of nostalgia tho let's try *really* hard to preserve this galaxy alright?"
It also may be them making stuff up because they cannot believe he did nothing the whole time, and made up stories to make themselves feel better
I thought the Silent King was trying to stop the Tyranids because if they eat all the life in the galaxy then there is nobody left that the Necron could Freaky Friday with, then they couldn't get real bodies again. There's not much point in leaving with army of robots, most of whom lack any really personality or independence; if he wanted to do that he couldve just left with all the necron in the first place and not bothered leaving them in the tomb worlds.
@@tysontaggart7246 I think in that scenario "subjugation" also includes having an array of different meatbags to potentially switch bodies too as well. Just after they do they'd still also have an iron grip on everything thanks to their tech.
Good'ol Szarekh is the only necron to solo a full fledged C'tan and win. It was the buring one, who is currently imprisoned and eternally tourtured as the battery of his dias. He also has taken the burning one's power for himself as well. Don't think there are really any other figures that could contend at all.
you got a Source for him solo fighting a fully fledged C'tan? Cause that seems like a HUGE accomplishment if it's true
@davisdf3064 necron 9th edition codex also its not clear if it was a 1v1. However, it is stated that he struck the final blow, which is still a massive accomplish he still took on a god in meele
Interesting point about the War in Heaven is the Necrontyr themselves had various names for it already. In Twice Dead King, a lot of the time they just referred to it as "the Old War" or "Szarekh's War"
It makes sense that the Silent King's Necron body wouldn't look very different than most of the others, to the C'tan that formed it, he wasn't important, just another morsel on their plates. If anything, the differences that are there are an insult, marking him as the one who threw his people's souls away while also getting the point across that he's no different in their eyes
People probably expected closer to overlords, cryptarchs, destroyers, just some kind of modification, but the question is were *those* units modified after biotransference? Perhaps the lords were just slightly distinguished from regular necrons, including keeping their consciousness, and units such as plasmancers and skorpekh destroyers were modified to suit their needs years later. If anything that would make him humble, to remain as he was instead of complicating himself with further technology
55:00 To be honest the Silent King did destroy both the Old Ones AND the C'tan at their PRIME. The boy was defeating Gods, before god's existed.
While also making the Eldar (people that were the Masters of space magic, and had multiple, ACTIVE and PHYSICAL gods) have a hard time while fighting them
This is over exaggeration. They spent 5 MILLION YEARS fighting aganist tge Old Ones and It was less the C'tan and necrons done them in but the first eye of terror they tore open in their desperation. And they 'defeated' the C'tan with a lot of help from Sheogorath of 40k causing those things to have a civil war and even then I don't believe the aeldari and Krorks just stand back and watch necrons fight the C'tan not to mention Aledari gods. Most likely it was a team effort. Make more sense. Enemy of my enemy is my friend and all. Necrons are fucking powerful. But not THAT powerful
So if the silent king is 'just a big Necron' does that make him the primarch of Necrons?
He doesn't have daddy issues, which automatically disqualifies him
@@morgansheepman2403 Not all Primarchs had daddy issues
Doesn't the Emperor just looks like a "big human" but with a golden glow? (i will not count the armor, it is not part of Big E)
If you’re not especially resistant to psychic power the emperor looks like whatever he wants to look like. If you are, he just looks like a dude; not even a large dude, just an exceptionally average looking dude in every way.
He’s the Necron equivalent of the Emperor of Mankind
The necrons have examples of necrontyr, I am beating my head against the wall to remember the book but it was a HUGE plot point in one of the more recent novels. A necron lord was maintaining a stasis chamber that still held their living necrontyr sibling. Please someone help me remember the book it's going to drive me nuts.
Ruin?
twice dead king series?
You might be thinking of The Infinite and the Divine, with Nephreth the Untouchable.
It was Nephreth The Untouchable; however it also wasn’t.
Read The Infinite and the Divine
Trazyn thought he found the preserved body of an original Necrontyr as the McGuffin at the end of Infinite and the Divine.
But nope. It looked like one for a minute, but then it turned out to be just *SPOILER*.
With the Silent King traveling to other galaxies, it's possible he didn't travel all the way to a neighboring major galaxy. The milky way has multiple small satellite galaxies, which theoretically could harbor life especially in the context of 40k. Could be that he has basically cleared all those out and the tyranids are coming in from a more distant major galaxy.
From the quote I actually think he went into other dimention. Cause "gift to be given at the end of time" Means he carved up a sub space dimension where they can survive heat death of the universe.
@@UnusualDeathCause
Wich if we consider the Necrons tech, it's not that crazy actually
@@davisdf3064when stuff like the Ghostwind exist, definitely not
DK: Necrons have been asleep for hundreds of years.

Szaerekh: Holy shit bro, i'm not done conquering other galaxies, please calm down.
Strictly speaking this is true. A massive understatement, but true.
Understatement of the decamillenium
lots of hundreds :)
I like how everybody forgets the reason Celestial Orrery isn't used is just the crazyness of Crypteks that guard it. They have the whole Orusckar dynasty actively protecting it from another dynasty fullbent on destroyer cult and all they do is OBSERVE the galaxy.
There is a short story called "Bleeding stars" ny Robert rath depicting Trazyn visiting them and spoiler - punching the main cryptek in his stupid ocular
Of course it was Trazyn the Infinite
I always though the reason they don't use it as a weapon is that taking out a star system has consequences the Necrons simply do not wish to deal with.
@@SignoftheMagi I think it was outright stated that using the Orrery in this manner destabilizes reality, which still definitely falls under "consequences they do not wish to deal with".
It's a poor literary device to give one faction a galactic delete button. It reduces the actions of the other factions to 'effectively dead the necron's just haven't pulled the trigger yet'.
@@hippiecheapskate
You could argue the same for the Imperium against the Tau
If the Imperium wishes, they could easily deal with the Tau, they would just have to sacrifice some planets being unguarded
The same goes for the Necrons, they still NEED stars, each "fuck off, explodes your star" is a sacrifice that they would need to make
The problem with a (Pre-Necron) Necrontyr "face-reveal" is that it is nearly implied that the C'tan erased the memory of the Necrontyr as a physical people from time itself when they swore alliegiance. People who see glimpses of the time 2-1 billion years ago before the War in Heaven report the blurred haziness as a silhouette of the Necron's physical body. Trazyn even comments that he cannot recover the memory of what he looked like during the Time of Flesh in the Infinite and the Divine. All he sees is a finger clutching a quill, or the reflection of a dark eye in the mirror.
To be fair, Trazyn and Orikan have had their memories altered. Like how Trazyn remembers himself being dragged into biotransference, and Orikan remembers Trazyn dragging HIM into biotransference.
I would originally have agreed 100% but the more I think about it the more I like the idea that the silent king is the only one who can remember what he actually lost.
That thing is a stylized mask though so we STILL don't know what they look like
He thought he'd recognized necrontyr when SPOILERS
he was looking at a shard of the Deciever
There's also twice dead king where they DID have a preserved necrontyr but declared it blasphemous to look upon the face of Ithakka the Lawmaker, (Oltyx accidentally looking at it because his senile father was fuckin WEARING it)
45:50
it's crazy to think that the silent king could have an insanely long history with the tyranids. like he could have counquered multiple other galaxies only to lose them all in some crazy war with the nids.
My two cents on the Silent King's look is this;
I think it's a fun idea to play around with the idea of a guilty king who stripped away his ostentation. Like he kinda looks like an ordinary necron, but there's an edge to him where you know he's not just an ordinary necron.
But the look they went for him is ostentatious without really making him seem as special as you'd expect for the leader of an entire faction. Idk, it's kinda midway there.
Here for it. Feel like codexs should double as a art book. Like GW hire alot of talented artists, but it always felt like they need more than what we are seeing.
22:45
I forget which game it was, it was one of the fleet-management ones, but if you play as the Necrons and win you get a cutscene of the Necrons closing the Eye of Terror like it was nothing.
Battlefleet Gothic 2 I think, could be wrong tho
Finally some Necron supremacy
Hail to the infinite empire.
The Necrons: not the CEO’s of racism, they’re the FOUNDERS of racism
With that silent king drip too
Finally, some fucking good lore
Im confused. was there ever a time when they where not superior?
That bit about the Pariah Nexus kind of soulkilling the people within it explains more about the survivors seen in the Pariah Nexus show
HAH (spoilers incase ye care)
Survivors
Little fan theory I have: when you look at old pics of the Eye of Terror, there was always that little gash in the middle of it like someone took a slice out of a cake. I assume that's roughly where Cadia was. My thinking is that when Cadia fell and the pylons were destroyed, it was the last of the Eye's chains being released. The Eye of Terror as we know was caused by the birth of Slaanesh. The great rift, I think, wasn't caused by some rebounding from the death of Cadia. The great rift is what the Eye of Terror was supposed to be. The giant fuck-off tear in reality would have been a day 1 thing were it not for the blackstone pillars keeping it contained to the Eye.
There should REEEEEEALLY be a "Crusade" section or specific army builder in app for those who play. It'd make things so much easier to have it all in one place with the xp gains, Scars, honors, specific army Agendas, etc. Like? Please? GW? Something?
I like the idea of necron’s daily garb including a funeral mask. For a race obsessed with death and constantly fearing their own it seems appropriate that you would dress for the grave. You could at any point drop death either from disease or assassination attempt.
The pariah nexus is literally the colorless deep fog from Demon’s Souls.
That one Nihilakh art kinda looks to me like the nobility punishing dissidents or something. Maybe some basic rank-and-file regained sentience and those green orbs that the crypteks are putting in them are a fix for that.
40:51 that image reminds me of Necron OCs I saw. Which was a two brothers. Who were confirmed twins. And when became necrons. They were still stuck together
My fav part of Twice Dead King was when Oltyx remembered a time just before his biotransference he met his mentor who already went through the furnace. Prolly the only time they mentioned the brief time where Necron and Necrontyr existed together.
"It is not so bad"
I love my boy Djoseras 😭
Idea: Necron Pariahs but instead of human blanks the unit is made of Blackstone Necrons
also would work well with they soft ret-con which IIRC was "A Cryptek had an idea but it didn't work out because you can't have the living metal self repair the flesh bits"
Warhammer 40k reaching out to other galaxies and telling us there are more lives there is such a massive lore bomb. Considering the Orks, mechanicus and event like War in heaven, imagine what crazy stuff is happening there
this shit was alwayus something ive been thinking of for the years ive been a fan of warhammer. But this Nuke of a mention in actual cannon lore just blew my mind
Its probably not actually the other full sized galaxies just the sattilite ones orbiting milky way. 40k does NOT have the writing capabilities to deal with that. Also the writing style is a myth propaganda and the part where mechadendrites being 'greatful' and faithfully serving him now once again is a straight up lie so...probably not.
Which is most likely an exaggeration. Considering this is Azhtek style standarized myth exaggerations are expected. Not to mention I highly doubt its more than the sattilite galaxies around milky way. Definantly not say andromeda and I just straight up not believe he 'conquered' entire galaxies BY himself unless all the civs in there were stone aged creatures. Please. 40k is the king of unreliable nerrator.
@@berilsevvalbekret772 daddy chill, im just suprised there are other canon factions outside of milky way. Thats cool and im glad they kept it vague
@@alangreene5776 sorry if I came out aggressive its just annoying so many people take everything literally in bloody 40k these days XD
This ep is feeling more special to me now, got a late gift from my girlfriend which was a guardsman style backpack that had the adpettus ridiculous flag and a I'm a tank hoodie in it but there's one cherry on top that sweetens it all, not sure how she did it but she got a signed postcard by our boy Bricky with a wreath around his head looking majestic
Aww, that's nice. Hey, are you the Makkerr that gets mentioned in the Ogre Poppenang patreon listings?
@@ProjectXA3 I am not my friend, I don't even know what that is haha
It's the username of theee guy who co-produced the "If the emperor had a TTS" and now "Hunter the parenting." Purty neat stuff.
Technically speaking, it's possible we STILL don't have a clue what a Necrontyr's real face looks like, because the skull-shaped heads of the Necrons could simply represent the death-masks that the death-obsessed Necrontyr might have worn as part of their everyday cultural fashion.
But here's a non-skeletal death mask, and those are usually made in the deceased's image.
And it would track for a culture hounded by death to make a death mask of their own face while they're still alive.
@@SeanCrosserthat thing is obviouslt stalized. Look at the shapes of the three faces it looks like a sarcaphagus lid.
Yeah i cant lie DK's nonchalant passing over of the fact that the silent king has been to other galaxies and has carved out a new area fir his race as they slept kinda had me going DK my boy please use the hampster in between your ears lol
Maybe because its not certain its true or not. Problem with intriducing this kind of thing is people will ask; then why the hell none of you just fucked off to andromeda. Its likely just the sattilite galaxies around Milky way because I don't believe a single necron ship no matter how powerful can take on an entire galaxy unless all those 'terrible' civs were stone aged people. Come on folks use some critical thinking. 😂😂
I'm surprised Shy didnt have a "Bricky says 'Imperium' rather than 'Immaterium'" counter
I'm pretty sure he said empyrean
Yes he said empyrean which is another word for the warp.
All the talk about the silent King being the tall one makes me want to make a custom Invader Zim themed Necron army
You can put scarabs on everyone’s backs and paint them like the backpacks all the Irkins have.
Zim, Dib and Gaz would be students as the Schola, with Dib being an inquisitorial acolyte in training who’s trying to convince his dad, Inquisitor Membrane, and the staff that Zim is a xeno, but no one believes him because they don’t believe an alien could infiltrate them
So would GIR be organic?
@@RichardX1 I want to say it would be a tiny robotic servitor with a reason to be mad, like having a C'tan shard from Iash'uddra or Tsara'noga jammed into it. That would explain Gir's giggling madness and ability to control whatever machines were around him.
I like the way you think...
Why before you said he was in his battleship I imagined szerek hovering around a galaxy like MODOK zapping massive ships like a nuclear bumblebee
Fullmetal Alchemist is insanely dark on the surface, but if you read between the lines it's close to 40k levels of dark but on a much smaller population scale
Took a shot everytime DK said 'like'. I'm at ER right now. Diagnosis looks grim.
hes from california
@@Adeptusridiculous You like say like that like it's like an like excuse. like.
They aren't rusted, the silent kings dynastic colors are brass/bronze
I like the Celestial Orrery, I hope it stays in the lore.
And if the Silent King went outside the galaxy and conquered other places, could that mean that the Tyranids might've been created by a species outside the Milkyway as a form of vengeance?
I mean even if its not mentioned, it doesnt mean it doesnt exist anymore
Yeah, for all the crazy dark age of tech stuff, necrons having A crazy thing( that could still have limits, who knows) seems ok.
Same, it really helps solidify how stupidly advanced the 'crons are.
It probably just propagnada myths honestly. If he DID went to the other galaxies they were likely the smaller satallite ones orbiting Milky way.
It's sounds like he went to the warp. "Uncivilized realms of horror and madness" sounds like the realms of chaos. Maybe he helped make the forge chaos god.
54:45 Not one of the strongest physically? The man cut a warlord titan in half by himself!
Wtf where
He doesn't actually mean that the Slient King went to other galaxies. There are stars and planets and such outside the milkyway that aren't part of any galaxy. As well as smaller clusters of starts and dwarf galaxies. It might simply be referancing void empires between the galaxies he was dealing with and he never actually made it to another galaxy.
THANK YOU! Even if its galaxies its more likely the sattilite ones around milky way. People take everything so literally. At this point after the latest HH book people will claim Sanguinius can move at the speed of light 😂😂
I wonder if The Silent King stuffed up yet again by taking down threats in other galaxies. By subjugating or destroying empires, it would leave those galaxies as defenceless buffets for the Tyranids, in turn making them grow.
Pretty sure Bricky said "Imperium" over and over again when discussing the "Immaterium" and blackstone's effect on it. I know accuracy isn't the point, but that's a pretty big distinction
I was going crazy looking for someone else that said it
Though the idea of people being on a world about to be invaded and the astartes and guard all turn up talking about how they "SERVE THE IMMATERIUM" and the citizens of the planet just eyeing each other nervously is actually hilarious to me
Seeing this comment alot but.
Empyrean, which is another word for...
He’s saying Empyrean…
@@letendreelliott8778 I can't find any source for the word "Empyrean" in 40k except for an old human empire that was taken in the great crusade. Do you have any context for Empyrean?
One thing I find weird about the codex as someone new to playing Necrons, is that there is no official art or photography of the Nephrehk dynasty. Every other official dynasty has photography in the book or online but there is basically nothing for Nephrehk.
And that just makes me want to paint them evem more 😂
Reading twice dead realllly makes me wanna paint Ithakas but there isn't any official images outside of the rusted immortals on the first book, just passing discriptions of silver with gold strips for nobility and such
Also, Ego Stroking or Not, The Silent King is a way better Dad then the Emperor could've hoped to be, ever!
34:00 I mean that's the thing, DK. The other necrons are burdened with insanity. The silent king is burdened with perfect, unceasing, terrible, awful clarity of mind. For all time.
The info on the Silent King makes me wonder if GW are trying to give themselves a path forward when previous lore painted certain factions as too powerful. Like, here's the first step of the Necrons returning to flesh, but then they can't reanimate so they get an instant nerf. Curious to see if the Tyranid book has anything similar.
New Fermi Paradox just dropped, lads: Silent King subjugating all other civilizations beyond the dark.
Another note on why pariahs were retconned, it was basically written in such a way that suggested the pariah gene was modified into humanity by necrons long before we were "humans".
I guess I never really realized how much The Silent King loves his people. It makes the story of the Necrons even MORE heartbreaking 😢
Admittedly i havent seen this in the new Necrons codex but wondering how theyll make this an hour long episode?
Bricky acting like he helped Poorhammer while he's making their objective markers too small. That's a galaxy brain move right there
🤣🤣🤣
Technomandrites getting thrown in jail for second-rate shaboingery
Sometime DK's reactions to thing physically hurt me
Woooo, Necrons getting some love about time. And it sounds like the Silent King may some worlds ready for the Necron if they leave the galaxy.
I read about 40k on TV Tropes before really getting into it and they don’t cite their sources but I read there that the Silent King was described as being a fully formed out golden automaton of the netrontyr, rather than the usual Necrons skeleton. So I can see the disappointment from that perspective
Just one thing about Celestial Orrery, it was created LONG before biotransference, it was pinnacle of Necrontyr race technology, before their dealing with C'tans, so even if Technomendrites made it, it would be completely different ones, not current ones.
Pariahs were also featured Dawn of War: Dark Crusade! I had always wondered what happened to them...
for cover art i would go with dark tomb with just a bit of light where you can see throne with overlord in middle with eyes that look like he just regained conciousness with two immortals bodyguards next to him and in front of him just necron shadows that stand there like teracot army with few shadows showing signs of damage like broken skull missing pauldron etc.
An hour of Ancient Egyptian Space Terminator supremacy is just what I need before going to bed.
42:03 Aeon and eon are the exact same word, pronounced the same way. There are a number of words spelled with "ae" in English that American English spells with just an "e" - daemon, encyclopaedia, paediatric. It's the same as colour vs color, flavour vs flavor. 40k in particular loves to use the 'ae' spellings of words. Generally, if you see an "ae" in a word you'd normally spell with just an 'e', it's the same word, pronounced the same way with a long "ee" sound.
Can confirm. Brotherhood is infinitely better. Also man they Really are leaning into the dementia of the Necrons. Also silent king is Definitely giving me Lawful Evil vibes. Definitely Lawful Evil.
Brotherhood’s ending is better, but it’s hard to give a shit about characters when their characterization has been skipped or rushed through.
In tonight's episode of the Ridiculous Tour:
Bricky shows us his favourite halloween mask!
DK explains in exacting detail the perfect skincare routine, including 5 special techniques you have never heard of (number 3 will shock you!)
And Shy opens up a new segment, Cooking with Shy! Where the best 40k recipes will be broken down into bitesize, easy to follow steps. Today, it's how to render two adult humans into the perfect corpse-starch loaf!
All this, after the break!
Also next episode is war in heaven I'm calling now.
The necron codex talking about how the silent king was fighting other planets beyond the milky way raises up a lot of questions GW will never be bold enough to touch. And it puts a lot of legitimacy of the tyranids at risk.
For one, him just casually being outside and fighting others means the milky way isn't the last galaxy standing. There's more than what the tyranids have eaten. For another, it means there isn't a greater threat that forced the tyranids to us. If so, the Silent King would know about it and wouldn't be so afraid of the tyranids, but this threat following them.
Don't get me wrong, I like that they are building up the necron king of all kings up more, but they put a different faction's barely existing lore into a spot.
Or all the 'conquered galaxies' is just a created myth? I don't care how advanced necrons are one ship cannot conquer entire galaxies unless they are mostly empty or all the civs there are stone age people.
Tyranids running from something is a fan theory nothing more though. I am taking everything in this mythical telling with a grain of salt.
The Pylons in the one photo look eerily similar to special trees
Pipes falling = peak humor
Mandatory laugh time
FMA is amazing! I need to do a re-watch… also agree that Brotherhood is the best… though the original started well. Hear the argument that Brotherhood is meant to be watched after the original. I plan to test that theory.
A great anime for newcomers who want to delve into medium-long lenght series.
When the Silent King meets Dante, he’s described as appearing larger, more elegant and robust than other necrons. He supposedly appears to have a fuller body than the rest of the necrons’ skeletal ones. So to have him pop back up as a model that’s an overlord with a few more flashy bits on him was a bit underwhelming, at least for me. I wasn’t expecting a necron primarch but something a bit beefier and more intricate than the regular nobles at least
NEcrons have always been interesting to me..loved them even the idea of the phariah in dark crusade.
Whelp. It's settled.
Szaerekh is officially the best character in 40k.
Like, what a fuckin gigachad. Especially compared to the Emperor. Big E couldn't even make his own empire without brutal subjugation of his own people, a doctrine that stifles ad just ensures that more would turn to chaos. He practically set the frame work of the imperium where humanity is only prosperous at the cost of humanity itself.
Meanwhile, Szaerekh upon seeing his mistake not only rallies his people together to kill their "masters", but after doing so gets up and goes to other galaxies to conqeur all without (intentionally) putting his people at risk to ensure his people's prosperity in the long term.
The Necrons are like the Imperium, but simply better
I get the perspective of wanting it on your phone, i worry the moment it goes on the phone they will stop putting books out to save on costs and we'd then get a SIGNIFICANT amount less art in general
so I accept the old ways because it preserves some of the things we saw more often back then too like frequent art
So topical considering the codex bombshell they just dropped today for canoptek court
I would say if you're going to watch. One Watch brotherhood, but if you wanna see both watch the first one thin brotherhood.
silent king...He's just a bigger guy.
I want alchemus ridiculous. Where D.K takes Bricky through Full metal Alchemist.
Actually the sleep probably saved most of their number's minds. If all of them were awake for that 60 million years , most likely majority of them would have driven insane.
The only necrons who were awake were Szarekh and his barely sentient crew on Song of Oblivion and a small number of Praetorians who were awake to keep an eye on the galaxy.
In Twice Dead Kings we see the nobility starts to unravel even before War in Haven ends.
Necrons are bound to a slow painful degredation and death. This is why Szarekh is so desperate. And this is why while I love Imotekh (and he has my vote in the upcoming necron civil war) he NEEDS to look into the fact that his people WILL eventually completely degrade...himself included.
I don't think that an EXACT replica of a necrontyr face but a sarcophagus's lid. A Phaeron's grave gilded and depicted as such. That beard thing is just an artistic choice on a mask I think
I don't think he went all on his own and conquered ENTIRE galaxies it is ridiculous. I think its at best the dwarf galaxies sorruounding milky way. Also the fact that it shows certain parts of this myths is straight up lie since technomandrites fucking HATES Szarekh and PRETEND subsercience. They want the bastard dead who stuck them in prison for 60 million years in prison for DOING WHAT HE ASKED.
I can't wait till they make "Just a little Bug"
30:42 This sounds vaguely like a metaphor for something. The idea of this ancient guy trying to reach apotheosis but it's impossible because he'll never understand the concept of a soul just has the vague vibe of some kind of metaphor.
Necrontyr have been shown before. Also Pariah's were in the tabletop game until 8th came out.
Honestly in an AU without the horus heresy it would basically boil down to The Emperor vs The Silent King
Regardless where you stand on how powerful he is, one thing no one can argue about is his influence.
This guy made 2 decisions that changed the galaxy forever.
1. Agreeing to biotransference in order to wage war one the Old Ones.
2. Turning on the C'tan and killing the star gods.
The ascension and damnation of his race, the deaths of two god-races, The war in heaven, creation of the (Kr)orks and Aeldari, the complete disruption of the once peaceful warp and by extension the empowerment of chaos, the birth of slaanesh, the existence of Gork and Mork, the creation of the Emperor, the eye of terror, and possibly even the Tyranids coming.
All these major events can be traced back to the decisions of the Silent King.
Without the war in heaven, no eldar or (Kr)orks.
Without Eldar, no slaanesh. Without (Kr)orks, no Gork and Mork.
If the warp was calm, the creation of the Emperor wouldnt have been needed, as the souls of the dead would reincarnate instead of being eaten by warp creatures. Thus the ritual to create him, would never have happened.
Without chaos being empowered by the war in heaven and the disruption of the warp, and with no emperor being created, the imperium would not exist, chaos corruption would not have happened, the heresy would not have happened, and the black crusades would not have happened, which means the great rift would not have happened. If the heresy didnt happen then the Pharos device would not have been overloaded and supposedly attracting the Tyranids.
Now that he has returned, I wonder how often the Silent King has looked out upon the galaxy he left, and extrapolated backwards what happened, and saw how devastating and wide reaching his influence has been, not only over space, but through time and even his effect on the immaterium, a whole other dimension.
Whole worlds may burn in Ghazghull's boot print, but whole galaxies and dimensions are shatterd by the shockwaves sent out by the Silent King!
Szarekh the silly little guy
I know in some of the old lore, that some of the Praetorians stayed awake, ordered to watch over and protect the sleeping Necrons in the absence of their lord the Silent King.
Is it still canon?
Pretty sure I still saw this in the 10th edition codex but it might be a false memory
I like the idea that the King went out there hitting galaxies left and right, bringing the big wins. then he hit the wrong beehive and the Tyranids followed him back home, angry like fuck because he bothered them in their home.
37:59 bricky did NOT just imply necronthyr were femboys
I cant beleave Briky did not mention that Zahndrekh and Obyron no longer have rules, and there was a whole twitter drama of fans missing their favorite necron Quijote and Sancho
I miss my old married old man couple on table top 😢
My favorite part of the Pariah Nexus show was GW expecting me to take the name "Sa'kan" seriously. Sa'kan deez nuts lmao
Glad to have just discovered the actual podcast as I listen (even to yt) while working & no reason to burn Darmstadt for video. Looking forward to this episode.
Bricky slipping in more Fesh Pince references and I'm here for it 38:40
Thank you for another great episode!
the artwork that consumed 2 pages was beautiful and god i hope we see more of that
Bricky needs to watch Full Metal Alchemist just cuz it's still at the top of anime lists at the very least, and then i bet it's gonna be completely his cup of tea!
23:00 Imperium/Immaterium - Tomato/Potato
ACKSHUALLLY, the Elric brothers didn't bring their mom back. Al's soul was briefly transferred into the body they made. Resurrecting the dead is decidedly impossible in that world.
It’s funny listening to a Raycon ad with Raycons.
Press Right, Left, Left, Right, Up, Down, Down, Right.
The new cheat code for the Necron as old as time itself. To get a extra life.
