- Being a record of the sepulchral revenant-things of eons past, the shining metallic death rises from the sands of a thousand worlds to reclaim a galaxy they believe theirs: the xenos legions of the Necrons.

By far the most under credited and most unique 40k lore channel on all of TH-cam.
style & class divides him from the mass
Completely agree with your sentiments also as Nightscore says 'Style & Class'
Absolutely! The quality of this channel is head and shoulders above the rest.
The greatest upon holy terra itself
It will end with Oculus on top and the others bowing before HIS greatness. HIS majesty, may massage my ears, with his majestic voice and magnanimous knowledge of all things miniature!

Your HEPA filter needs changing, Brother. I shall perform the Requiem of Requisition. Please allow six to eight decades for delivery.
@@cmelton6796 We regret to inform you that the foul energies of the warp rendered your delivery cast 7.3 millennia into the future. Please accept our apologies for this inconvenience, and note that due to flagrant warp energies surrounding your planet we have dispatched the inquisition to investigate it's root cause.
The Emperor Protects.
Oh..hey...Darth Vader....wait...I think I'm in the wrong franchise again...ffs...damn it....smh...
10/10 would binge all episodes again
I actually do all the time.
Do you want to binge forever?!
What do you mean "would" it's spelt...WILL...
I am right now 30th time and part 2 vid..... am playing in a rogue trader game and the gm is alowing me to play as a Necron Deathmark.🤖🤖🤖🤖
I like how when you presented Metatron and his "gift" you slowly panned over his body, until you mentioned the inevitable catch, then you quickly moved to his head, showing the Deceiver we all know.
Thank for catching it! :D
@@OculusImperia By the way, regarding the old ones, there's a very contundent theory that they were a federation of ascended races rather than a single one, which included the gods of the Eldar. Are you guys to explain those in the next video?
Rafael Rodrigues. Most interesting!
@@rafaelrodrigues7971 No
@@rafaelrodrigues7971 seems like it makes less sense than the eldar being bootstrapped for the express purpose of using their psionic power to "forge" their gods as weapons to use against the c'tan. you're positing that the gods of the immaterium are remnants of an ancient progenitor race? this would require discarding the lore surrounding the war in heaven, and would diminish the distinction between biological beings of the material universe and the ephemeral, parasitic beings of the warp. as we understand it currently, a warp based race COULDN'T exist before the birth of the eldar because they'd have no powerful psionic forces to feed from or define their natures.
common misconception about the ruinous powers in 40K: they are not eternal. all five of the chaos gods were born, all of them were fed by material beings, and none of them could exist without feeding off of the material universe. killing khorne doesn't require killing war or anything so cosmological in scale. khorne is a PARASITE that feeds off of bloodshed, he's not the inventor or personification of bloodshed in the universe.
Occulus Imperia?
Necrons?
31 minutes?
Praise him upon Terra.
Instant like.
AND it's only half the story!
pretty much my thought process.
for the emperor
Other accounts. "Necrons used to be Necrontyr until they were deceived by the Star Gods"
Oculus: " Hold my beer"
Hotel? Trivago.
This is the best 40k channel on youtube by a country mile. You're insanely talented, mate.
Thank you so much for the kind words
This is what I use to fall asleep
Not because it's dull
Far from it
You tell the lore in such a story like and great way that it's soothing and relaxing to hear
As always 10/10
So spot on with your assessment of his great work I just praise the emperor we have the required clearance to listen to it otherwise I couldn't sleep with worry...that's for sure...
This is now the gold standard for 40k fluff stuff on youtube.
Necrons are my favorite non Imperium race. Truly terrifying
What do you think of the possibility that the Necrontyr star was originally stable and then became the green irradiated nightmare the records speak of?
Would be most likely. Otherwise the Necrontyr should have been perfectly adapted for that radiation. Possibly between a few hundred and thousand years before their industrial revolution. At least that's my headcannon.
Thier story and fate saddens me
It would be a grand 40k irony if it where the C'tan themselves who had turned the star of the Necrontyr so dangerous by feeding upon it.
@@ThomasTee Imagine a species that regards ionizing radiation as we would a light refreshing shower. That'd be a fun opponent to fight.
@@iambob6590 This
I shall need to visit a priest after writing this, for I feel the need to confess a grievous sin. I *know* the Necron-Tyr were nothing but yet another squalid race of xenos with delusions of grandeur, and I *know* that the blasphemous automata they became represent nothing less than an existential threat to our beloved Imperium. And yet...as sickening, as *wrong* as it is to feel anything but contempt and hatred for the alien...some disobedient part of my soul insists on feeling *horror* at the fate of the Necron-Tyr, and worse, *pity* for the soulless husks their race became. Perhaps the sheer magnitude of their horrific (if well-deserved) fate slips past my conscious mind, to grasp at my instincts and force such disgusting emotions upon me. I pray that these...feelings...are not the mark of some deeper, more sinister corruption.
Learn from them. The Necron's envy and spite drove them to consort with demons. The pride and lust of the Aeldari birthed a new horror of the Warp. What befell the Old Ones? Where is their power, their empire, their stories? Take heed, that these mighty empires, blessed with time, and knowledge and incalculable wealth and technology, fell. It is the twin edged knowledge that even the greatest of our enemies can fall, as can we.
Yes inquisitor this comment
@@Zaprozhan" HAHA! Fools! We shall rise again,and cleanse the galaxy from your wretched excuse of an empire! At least,after we get rid of the Tyranids, that is. Are you interested in an alliance? "
Szarekh,The Silent King.
Seriously,though. Great reply!
@@alyseleem2692 hahahaha my lord 🙏 we will bring plight upon this human that thinks he is a God the ctan brought ruin upon our souls we will save them from themselves
liked before watching, awesome page. I love the characterization.
He does good work - when i remember ill make a statue for him
Hail me
Long live me!
I'll get right on that-Tim Perptual Sculptor
Aka"possiblity" that guy who made the primarch sculptures
Thx father
Get up you lazy sod. 10,000 years to take a dump!!
It's the 41st millennium and the Joker is still remembered. God-teir memes never truly die.
Way to weave thw killing joke speach in there lol
I couldn't not. I love it so much.
I must have missed it, anychance you have a time stamp?
@@MrVlogman101 0:28
I immediately catched it, probably fav piece of dialog from rich masterpiece that is TKJ
Newly discovered this channel, I used to listen to audiobooks for bed. No longer, wonderful, it feels like I am in an Imperial library. Beautiful presentation, atmosphere and so articulate. An absolute joy, thank you, Brother Librarian.
Welcome aboard!
Comment for the benefit of the TH-cam algorithms
I wonder what fossil he would have picked
I love analytical approach of Lutein09 but Baldemort and Occulus could basically describe watching paint dry with the way how they weave the story and play with the language. One could hope for Emperor of Collaborations - Lutein09 voicing agent of Templin Institute interrogating Baldemort and Occulus :D !
Someone's just asking to be part of Trazyn's collection
Ooooooh now I want an interaction between our beloved chronicler and Trayzin in the same style of his chat with the inquisition. Would be a most interesting interaction indeed.
You have to be wary of Trazyn lest he steal your stuff and possibly you, but he must be a really good conversationalist.
It is not a sorrow that mankind was not the first species to awaken in the universe. We are blessed with our position, as well have so many failed kinds to look down upon and their errors to learn not to repeat. Is it not true that a wise man learns from the deaths of others?
The narration is superb, the background choir enchanting, setting forth an air of credulity that goes far beyond any lore telling of scribes. Brilliant!!! Subbed...
Whenever I think about the Necrons meeting the Old Ones, I imagine Feels Wojak meeting Smug Pepe.
I will countenance no other lore channel before this one. Perfection.
in the grim reality of the oculus channel, there are only likes
An the heretics who havent figured out how to get the emperor's blessings for multiple likes...
Quite simply the best channel on youtube.
Unique and superb in equal measure.
Jesus Christ your style of lore video is top notch
I have a lot of respect for the atmosphere and work that went into these videos. Infinitely entertaining. Instant sub and like. Will be paying a lot of attention to this channel. 👍
Thanks so much, and welcome aboard!
Well related, Great Chronicaller, a truly well-done piece.
Necrons: That’s it I’m getting me...
*M O N O L I T H*
Ave imperator! Another great addition to your ever growing library!
Best 40k lore channel by far.
You're channel is easily the top of 40k lore videos. I hope you'll do many more Xenos focused videos in the future!
That's the plan!
Your narration is so soothing and sophisticated i feel like i need a glass of bourbon while listening to this channel.
Best lore channel on TH-cam
Your channel should have a much greater following. It's such an original way of presenting 40K lore, excellent.
the Vocie is awsome, sounds really good, it's feel like a TechPreast teach you his acolyte knowlege about Xenos.
Ad Victoriam
"Remember? Ohh, I wouldn't do that! Remembering's dangerous. I find the past such a worrying, anxious place.
"The past tense", I supposed you'd call it. Ha ha ha." As usual, a perfect piece from you Chronicler. :)
The Necrons are among my favourite factions that is uniquely 40k. There is almost always a human empire, a destructive force of chaos, a band of dickheaded or otherwise arrogant elves, primary-coloured-skinned non-humans. But skeletal robots from bygone ages that were once a pitiable race of blighted people? Fascinating.
Great vids man. I love the background music as well, it really helps with the ambience and feeling of immersion.
the most horrific story i’ve ever heard, it pains me to imagine it
I love how he embraces in his role as the imperial chronicler the pervasive xenophobia of the empire in random apostils about how heinous non human life forms are. Or rather, he makes sure that the fictional reader of his fictional character is sufficiently aware that he embraces that xenophobia because he is supposed to. Nice layers of characterbuilding there …
I didn't realize it was 30 mins until it was over and if you keep up this quality for that size holy shit that would be amazing
wow your videos are so good, Love the narration. Always a joy to see a long lore video. Can't wait for the follow up.
such an awesome channel. glad to see your works chronicler
Wonderful job, I really love the narration. Keep It up!
Know then, that it's 4am and I am listening to this video
I was hoping for this topic, love it.
Perfect voice, great text, excellent content as always !
this and luetin are the two best channels on 40k lore in their own ways. though, personally, I prefer this one
After getting home from a long days grind it's wonderful to listen to these story's 💙
All salute the chronicler!
You’re style in these videos is great. Double thumbs up.
Every time you update it makes my day better.
I love your lore narration. Please don't stop 😁
Been waiting for this video, loving the content
This channel is utterly amazing
Amazing wordplay once again Oculus!
I have to wonder if
A simple necron warrior could ever regain his soul and just remember and feel all the times he was brutalized by orks , melted down by las fire , shred to pieces by holy and unholy bolt rounds , or cut down by eldars only to be teleported away and built back up and then fight on for millennia
That would be a killer short story
Awesome stuff. Can't wait till you cover Orks in detail. 😊
The Beast shall rise again, say it with me......... Waaagggggghhhhhhh!
So currently playing Warhammer: Mechanicus after discovering this channel and I now agree with Oculus' absolute disdain for the Necrons. Ave imperator, gloria in excelsis Terra.
Image if the OId Ones offered the Necrontyr a cure for their genetic degradation caused by their home star. Its not eternal life, but it would extend Necrontyr lives to never seen lengths and give them to time to develop immortality on their own. If nothing else to at least elevate the Necrontyr of the pain of life, caused by their genetic degradation.
Great work!
Superb work as always.
Now this is some good shit right here. Thank you for all of your hard work.
I love the way you do these
Great lore video!
Yes confessor this heresy right here
A Necron Lord with nothing to do
Sealed forever in a Tomb with a View.
I'll always hate you, Mephretan.
You do a real good job I could listen to you read the phone book! Keep up the good work. And dude what's up with a Patreon link is the description?
but in the end, even though many of the Necrons had their souls devoured, the living metal Necrons use defeated C'tan so The Silent King got his vengeance. Now its time to close the Eye of Terror and destroy Chaos, whoo! Or Tyranids might have a tickle fest and destroy the warp lolol
Great videos!
If there were a phisical version of these record I would buy it. And listen to it by every painting or list making. All hail the greatest of the Scribes.
Sometimes it sounds like the character of Oculus is more- skeptical and unbiased than he portrayed- like he wants to say X but Y makes hem say X*
Grimdark Narrator for my textbook, Oculus Imperia for my immersion.
everything is so lore perfect then ......butt stuff kiju XD LOL
Keep it up and I guarantee you will get to at least half a mil subs
You and Leutin easily my favourites.. different styles.. maybe one day synergize a grand special .. something unique :D
Leutin likes to tell little kids who can't afford GW's OUTRAGEOUS prices to go play snakes and ladders........... not cool!
when Necrontyr uses 4-dimensional Nanotechnology as alternatives for Old Ones' Immortality, former cost them their psychic potentials
God Damn that Guilliman miniature is glorious.
Need one.
Another masterpiece.
Fantastic!
It's now believed the Old Ones did offer the Necrontyr a cure for their genetic degradation and extend their life spans. But the Necrontyr were insulted by the offer, they wanted to be immortal gods and not to just live longer as weak mortal flesh.
So many deaths among the Necrontyr, heralded so many tombs and epitaphs dedicated to their mortal dead.
Outstanding
Always awesome 👍.. thanks
2 mins in and I'm already getting chills
This needs a Part 2!
It has one :)
War in Heaven is part 2 and its......... Awesome!
I believe I may have found a 1st for your vids, great historitor. You say there is no description besides the moniker "old ones", yet then a few moments later describe them as "amphibian progenitors". Any1 else catch that?
Hey Oculos, this is something that Ive been meaning to ask you since I discovered you through the journey to Terra video, which was excellent, and that is what is the music you use for videos? It's wonderful to listen too and I need something new to add to my warhammer painting/reading playlist.
It never ceases to amaze me how much the foul xeno's of the universe never cease to disgust me
Best of the Xenos factions. All hail the Silent King!
A wise scholar indeed. He understands that man, for all his power, can still be food for dark powers beyond understanding.
Sorry Oculus but your always glorious narration made be pity the sad and foul Xenos
Inquisitor he is over here ..... xeno collaborator ! Lol
@26:50 whos the artist of that? I love the look of that representation of the silent king
*Pariah claps slowly*
0:15 onward: *THIS IS THE CULTURE WAR IN A FRIGGIN NUTSHELL*
Scuse me I got some more Mechanicus to play
_Is_ there a canon depiction of the Necrontyr? If not, I would think that the 'Biologis hypothetical rendering' is pretty drokking close to every description there is of their bio form. Is there even one of _those?_
I can't imagine they were very tasty... salty, with a leathery texture. Yeesh....but there's no accounting for C'tan culinary proclivities, not even in Occulus' vast banks of histories.
Oculus upload! Immediate watch (goes without saying really) 😃😃😃
Eugepae, vatis! Ave historicus magnus! (I've been studying my High Gothic.)
