The Deceiver was the one to steer the Necrontyr towards a war with the [[Old Ones]], by using its words to instill hatred of their power and ageless wisdom. Eventually this led to the transformation of the Necrontyr to the Necrons, which in turn led to the next major incident in the history of the C'tan. One of the three possibilities says that the Deceiver was the first to set C'tan against C'tan, convincing them that each other was the "best of all feasts", but despite this the Deceiver remained one of the physically weakest C'tan and only survived by avoiding the more violent C'tan, such as the [[Nightbringer]] and the [[Void Dragon]].{{Fn|1f}}
The Deceivers same deviousness proved to be its undoing. Word spread of its manipulations, and its reputation became tarnished. When During the C'tan were ambushed by the [[Necron]] slave revolt led by [[Szarekh]], the Deceiver was bounded and broken beset by singing spheres unleashed by its servants that wrought it apart into shards. {{Fn|7}} The remaining shards of the Deceiver believe themselves to be in control, fighting alongside the Necrons in order to manipulate them.{{Fn|4}}
