Changes

'''Biotransference''' was the process by which the organic [[Necrontyr]] race were transformed into the mechanical immortal [[Necron]]s.{{Fn|1}}

The Necrontyr were a people born on a radiation-blighted world, and as such lived short and painful lives. Despite this, they managed to expand across the stars and developed an envious hatred for the nigh-immortal [[Old Ones]]. In the war that followed, the Necrons were facing total defeat until [[Szarekh]], the Necrontyr [[Silent King]], was approached by one of the [[C'tan]]. Known to history as the [[Deceiver]], this C'tan promised immortality and power at the expense of their organic forms. After months of debate, the [[Triarch]]s eventually approved to go forward with the C'tan's plan to shed their organic bodies for immortal mechanical forms known as '''Necrons'''.{{Fn|1a}} However not all of the [[Necron Dynasty|Necron Dynasties]] willingly went along with the plan. Some, like [[Trazyn|Trazyn the Infinite]]{{Fn|4a}}, [[Orikan|Orikan The Diviner]]{{Fn|4b}} and the [[Khansu Dynasty]], had to be forced.{{Fn|2}}

In the modern era, many [[Necron Dynasty|Necron Dynasties]] resent biotransference and see it as a mistake. They seek out new races that could provide suitable host bodies for organic forms. Some, like the [[Nephrekh Dynasty]], have reversing Biotransference as their primary motivation.{{Fn|1a}} Most Necrons have few memories of the time before Biotransference, only vaguely flashes of events in a way one might remember their early youth.{{Fn|4e}}
