Overview
Flayed Ones, generally feared and condemned by the rest of Necron society, are exiled to languish in Drazak[2], and thus largely populate the world.[1] They stalk through its desolate streets, fighting over gobbets of rotting meat and shards of bone. Only one Necron has retained his senses, the Necron Lord Valgul who rules over the planet. Under the command of Valgul, the fleets of Drazak make raids for blood and flesh against nearby worlds in an event known as the Time of Bounty.[1]
The orbit around Drazak is filled with the empty ruins of hundreds if not thousands of Necron warships, both from their ancient battles against the C'tan and from more recent arrivals.[3]
History
In the ancient past, Drazak was the site of a titanic battle between the Necrons and C'tan during the Necron Revolt, during which the planet was reduced to ruin.[3]
In the present, Drazak was the final destination for the followers of the Overlord Oltyx and the Ithakas Dynasty as they fled an Imperial Crusade. As they used the Ghostwind to reach the mythic world many within the refugees themselves, Oltyx included, were falling to the Flayer Curse. As all within the Necron refugee fleet succumbed to the curse and became Flayed Ones, Oltyx took his throne and assumed the mantle of Valgul.[3]
