A Necron Warrior of the Thokt Dynasty.
The Thokt Dynasty is a Necron Dynasty whose crownworld is Meghoshta, "The Cradle of War." The territory of the Thokt Dynasty is located in the Segmentum Pacificus.
Dynasty History[]
The shifting void rifts of the Hyrakii Deeps of the Segmentum Pacificus hid the coreworlds of the Thokt Dynasty and their legions. These planets orbit the massive Meghoshta crownworld in a stately dance across the aeons, and smaller, heavily weaponised planetoids orbit them in turn.
Wreathed in sparking blue energy, the crystalline continent-tombs of the Thokt Dynasty feed upon the radioactive power of the void rifts that surround them, the sky overhead thick with rippling darkness and flickering blue comets.
The Thokt Crypteks have fashioned rad-receptors into the weaponry of their soldiers, harnessed from the potent radiation of the sparkling blue energy that permeates the rifts in the sky overhead, above the crystalline continent-tombs of the Thokt.
A symptom of this choice is that this barely contained energy causes a shimmering azure light to emanate from the eyes of Thokt Necron Warriors', from their Gauss Flayers and even the cracks in their mechanical forms. When the Thokt gather for war, the barely contained power of the Hyrakii void rifts is ready to be unleashed upon their foes.
Most recently, in 994.M41 the dynasty's fringeworlds were invaded by the Ork of WAAAGH! Bludtoof. Entire worlds were turned into killing fields in order to grind down the Orks in a bloody war of attrition.
Notable Campaigns[]
- Rise of Ankhnas (Unknown Date.M42) - When the Necrons of the Thokt Dynasty awoke from their great slumber, they found many of their coreworlds dominated by marauding Orks. Protocols were enacted to reawaken the dynasty's warriors, yet on the Tomb World of Ankhnas, the Necrons got more than they bargained for. As the undying legions marched forth from their stasis crypts, they were confronted by a colossal horde of Orks led by Goff Warlord Gazklaw. Without an Overlord to guide them, the Necrons were chopped apart in short order. Their living metal bodies phased out of existence, only to be reanimated back within the tomb complex. Once more their protocols demanded they march forth, which they did, right into the waiting choppas of the jubilant Goff horde. It's said that Gazklaw killed so many Necrons during his time on Ankhnas that his Mega Armour was made entirely of sheared-off chunks of necrodermis that shone like chrome beneath the world's unforgiving sun.
Dynasty Appearance[]
Dynasty Colours[]
The azure light of the Hyrakii Deeps surrounds the Thokt Dynasty's legions, pulsing in their weapons and illuminating the dull metal of their warriors' forms.
Dynasty Symbol[]
The Thokt favour the cold blue of their crownworld's immense void reefs.
The incomplete circles of the Thokt dynastic symbol show the alignment of the Hyrakii Deeps to the crown and coreworlds of the dynasty's ancestral star systems.
