Necron Warrior

Necron Warriors are the main foot-soldiers of the Necron army. They were created from the majority of the Necrontyr people who agreed to be bound to the will of their 'Star Gods' known as the C'tan - having their souls and consciousness transferred into bodies made of living metal Necrodermis. Over a long period of time, the metallic bodies dulled the Necrontyr's minds and their abilities to feel emotion or pleasure. Over many millennia, the ultimate outcome of this process of gradual desensitization was that the Necrontyr became little more than warrior-slaves of the C'tan, scouring the galaxy for souls to feed to their insatiable masters.

In battle, their massive numbers and superior firepower overwhelm their enemies before they retreat back to their Tomb complexes, awaiting the next call to battle. Their skeletal forms are a spine-chilling sight to behold; bullets and lasblasts bounce harmlessly from their metallic limbs. The gauss flayer which they wield is no less terrifying, as it strips its targets to atoms, dissolving skin and muscle in a heartbeat and then disintegrating bone until nothing remains.
