History

This section is a stub and needs to be completed. You can help by editing this article.

The C'tan were originally a race beings that fed on energy of stars. This changed when they encountered the Necrontyr during their war with the Old Ones. The Necrontyr created physical bodies made of necrodermis to communicate with them. This led to the C'tan developing a taste for the energy of living beings over the "tasteless" energy of stars. The C'tan offered the Necrontyr a chance to win their war against the Old Ones by converting their minds to bodies made of necrodermis. The Necrontyr accepted, and became the Necrons, whom came to worship the C'tan as gods. The two races then proceeded to wipe out the Old Ones. However, the Old Ones genetically engineered a race called the Eldar to fight the C'tan and the Necrons, whom created weapons specifically for the purpose of killing the C'tan that came to be known as the Blackstone Fortresses. But ultimately, not even these weapons could defeat the C'tan, but the Eldar managed to stop them by tricking them into feeding off the energy of eachother. Only four of the C'tan survived this, which went into hibernation.

It is beleived that at least sections of the Adeptus Mechanicus worship the C'tan, especially the Void Dragon.
