Nemesor

Nemesor is a high-ranking military title employed by the Necrons that is homologous to the human title of General. The title can be given to any member of the sentient Necron nobility by the Phaeron of a Necron Dynasty, whether they be a Necron Lord or Overlord. A Nemesor is usually the highest-ranking Necron officer in any given campaign, though the largest of Necron military actions can involve Necron legions commanded by several different Nemesors acting in concert under the direction of a senior Nemesor or the Phaeron himself.

Notable Nemesors

 * Nemesor Zahndrekh - Zahndrekh was the Necron Overlord who ruled the Crownworld of Gidrim and its surrounding domain in the name of the Sautekh Dynasty. He has led Gidrim on wars of expansion that have allowed it to assimilate a dozen star systems into its fold, including the textbook Necron campaign known as the Conquest of Uttu Prime to the Imperium. He is considered a military genius by the other Necron dynasties located along the Eastern Fringe of the galaxy. Yet for all his supposed genius, Zahndrekh does not see reality as it truly is. As a result of damage to his mind during the Great Sleep, he still believes that he is a Necrontyr, working to crush the rebellions of warlords during the Wars of Secession millions of years ago. He does not see his enemies as Orks, Eldar, or Humans, but rather as rebellious fellow Necrontyr attempting to usurp the power of the Triarch. He has a strong sense of honour, refusing to use Deathmarks or Canoptek Wraith assassins and believes that enemy commanders should be treated as honoured captives. As a result of his anachronistic beliefs and questionable grip on reality, many of his subordinate Necron Lords believe it wise to eventually remove him from power. Because of this, he has built up formidable defenses around himself, most notably his personal bodyguard, Vargard Obyron.
 * Nemesor Azderon - In 815.M41 Azderon oversaw the destruction of the Adeptus Mechanicus' Explorator Fleet 913 after it strayed into territory controlled by the Tomb World of Gheden that he ruled. At the conclusion of the void combat, he set the wreckage adrift along the trajectory projected by the Necrons to be travelled by the Eldar Craftworld Alaitoc. By the time three companies of Ultramarines were dispatched to find the Explorator Fleet at its last known location, Azderon had long withdrawn his forces back to Gheden.
