Subject: Join the Nekthyst Dynasty: Tomb World Deimos
Name: Intef the Merciful
Occupation: Cryptek
Background: Intef all but lost his soul in the transfer like many others, being reverted to a blank template recalling nothing but the first euphoria of his new mechanical body, but a glitch in the sleep protocols that caused him to be drift in and out of awareness whilst constantly having thoughts and dreams but leaving him incapable of movement or communication has caused him to develop a new personality. He is not only merciful, but pities the organic "Lesser Beings" seeing them as existing in an unenlightened way. He can be very philosophical in a way he often ponders questions about souls and emotion as he feels that true enlightenment comes from becoming a machine with a true soul and to feel the glory of mechanical life in comparison to the fragility of organic life. To this end he sees himself as a servant-he has already been enlightened and is incapable of a second ascension, and can only show the light to others and see in them that same joy once again. He comes to show the path and guide along it as many as he can. Despite this, he is a realist, understanding that the beings of the galaxy will resist the ascension he offers, and sees the destruction of foes as an act akin to preaching to the galaxy, leading him to fight with fanatical zeal.

I should have left him there. He had served his purpose. He owed me nothing - yet he gave himself to me willingly. Why? I know not. He is nothing more than a pathetic human. An inferior race. A mon-keigh. But still I broke off my wings so that I might carry him easier. I took him from that place, into the snowstorm where our tracks will not be found. He is heavy. And he is dying. And he is slowing me down. But I will save him. Why? I know not. He is still warm. I can feel his blood ebbing across me. For every beat of his heart, another, slight spill of heat. The heat blows away on the winter wind. His blood is still warm. But fading. And I have spilled scarlet myself. The snow laps greedily at our footsteps and our lifeblood, covering them without a trace as we fade away.

My...my ears...where'd they go? Is that...them over...everywhere?
Lol, but for real... I think that's a little too fast for Necron speed. Slow, soulless machines just waking up from their aeons long stasis kind of vibe should be what you're listening for.
On the other hand...that song makes me want to go to a rave party, drop some acid and use some glowsticks to have a "lightsaber" duel with someone.
I apologize I can't add you yet, Dakka on mobile is currently being a pain and won't allow me to edit jack.

Looks like this upcoming weekend, and with everyone decked out and bringing in some guys I forgot about.... We may have a 3000+ pt Apoc battle on our hands gentlemen. Pretty much the storyline is going to go that the surviving firewarrior is able to call in reinforcements, and they sure as hell send reinforcements.

For those who skipped/missed/ignored my last update there is a Destroyer Lord spot open.
Now adding:
Lord and Tombstalker (need to repair the old chap, but he'll definitely be up and running for this next battle)
And if you have theme song suggestions, I want them in by Friday. Then we get to vote for the song, beat, etc we want.

My theme song suggestion is the London philhormonic orchestra doing the mass effect suicide mission track-YouTube it. I would embed but can't on a tablet, which is my only web-browsing tool.

Ah, no matter how much Tau fans whine about their railguns and pulse weapons, nothing beats good old-fashioned grimdark races like Necrons and Humans.

Making your conversion drew plenty of blood... My blood.
And it was pretty neat seeing the lords shrug off 6 ion cannon shots and I don't remember how many rail shots like it was nothing.
