Plasmacyte
Plasmacytes are a kind of Necron construct.[3] Their primary purpose is to isolate and siphon corrupted engrams from slumbering Necrons.[4]
Overview
While Plasmacytes themselves are fairly harmless machines, Plasmacytes can use their Monomolecular Proboscis to inject an infectious, sentient energy into members of the Destroyer Cult. This hateful substance heightens their nihilistic insanity and drives their mindless annihilation to even further heights.[3]
Plasmacyte Accelerator
Variant of Plasmacyte used to enhance the mental processing capabilities of nearby Necrons and improve their operational efficiency.[5b] Their Accelerator Mandibles tap into the energy reserves of a Tomb World to deliver sudden jolts of energy to nearby constructs or to attack their foes.[6]
Plasmacyte Reanimator
Variant of Plasmacyte designed to ensure that nearby Necrons reanimate more quickly if they sustain serious damage thanks to a carapace-mounted repair Nanoscarab projector.[6] They use their Monomolecular Proboscis to inject rapid-repair enabling fluids into their patient.[5b] They can also be equipped with Atomiser Beams, which are fired from the same projectors as their nanoscarab projector and rearrange the atoms of a foe.[6]
