Trazyn is the British Museum of Warhammer 40k.

My favorite line from Trazyn *"You can't steal from the dead, that's just called archeology"*

Trazyn wanting to steal the Emperor is so unfathomablely heretical but that's hilarious

If Trazyn stole the Emperor and that ends up being the reason he becomes a full god it would be the funniest shit ever Oh and a story I love is when he saved a planet and the people thought he was a space marine so they raised a statue in his name. The Inquisition caught wind of this and decided to go tear down the statue, but by the time they got there Trazyn had already stolen it

Trazyn is basically us. We collect the models for the fun. He just like us for real.

I'm surprised you haven't talked about Trazyn's constant beef with the Salamanders. Where he keeps going to steal the artifacts of Vulkan from Vulkan He'stan and keeps getting killed. He just materializes back on his home world and is like "damn, I'll get you next time" He's an absolute gremlin and I love it.

We need a book of trazyn just walking around his museum telling us about the stuff he has

Trazyn straight up has a "grow your own emperor's children" kit

Trazyn is easily the most relatable character in 40K. He probably has a giant pile of gray plastic that he'll definitely put together and paint at some point, but grabbing just one more model kit wouldn't hurt.

I appreciate how Trazyn is basically the best boss you can ask for in a universe like 40K. Most obviously was the human Koloma who worked for Trazyn and remarked about all the things, big and small, that Trazyn did to make his life better (far better than his human masters) with Trazyn stating that good service should be duly rewarded. The entire exchange was shockingly somber and tender for the setting; the way that Trazyn finally notices how old his servant has grown and how he changes from boss mode to that of sitting beside a friend’s deathbed, how Komola asks Trazyn if the world will be destroyed and Trazyn takes care to tell him a half-truth to spare his feelings. Then there’s his trusted Necron advisors. When Orikan infiltrated his museum and destroyed some of his oldest and most precious artifacts, Trazyn never blamed his people for failing to stop him even as he impotently lashed out at Orikan with redirected asteroids. When they were discussing Orikan’s actions at the trial, Trazyn’s advisors were free to give their opinions even when they went contrary to Trazyn’s. I feel like having a boss who won’t blame you for disasters beyond your control and values the honest opinions of their workers is a commendable and rare trait in bosses today, let alone in 40K.

Isn't one of Trazyn's most treasured artifacts the old walking stick he had while still in the flesh? If I remember right, also has a soft spot for ancient Necrontyr pottery.

Having tyranids wake up in his displays is like the 40k version of night at the museum.

there was one dialog that summarized him perfectly Orican - "you can't steal from the dead" trazyn - 'yeas I can it's called archeology" In my opinion best dialog in whole warhammer series. That crazy cleptomaniac is an equal part of comedic relief as orcs

I see Trazyn as one of the most fair characters in 40k. He values artifacts from all races and tries to preserve the history of them all as he sees the value is their historical items while they'd happily destory another races history if they could.

Here's the full list of his collection: The Prismatic Galleries. These are some of the most prized possessions of Trazyn and consist of holographic events recapturing events from history deemed worthy of preservation. These galleries are not populated by mere sculpture, but by conscious living beings transmuted into the holograph themselves. The last high council of Idharae Craftworld An exhibit showcasing the massacres on Tragus. A warband of Orks attacking an unknown blue-shelled invertebrate Xenos species. The catacombs of Calth during the Underground War An exhibit labeled "Doomrider's Folly" An exhibit labeled the "Death of Lord Solar Macharius", which is one-tenth composed of Imperial Guardsmen who are 300 years from the wrong time period. An exhibit labeled the "Last Stand of Ursarkar Creed" An exhibit labeled the "Last Questions of Historicus Ostalan Varus" An exhibit labeled the "Sword Both Stolen and Sought" An exhibit labeled the "Imperial Heroes of the Tyrannic Wars" An exhibit labeled "The Beheading of Goge Vandire An exhibit labeled "War in the Museum" An exhibit labeled "Angelis", which includes:Gorkamorka (the rocket ship), Mektown, and several of Orkz. A C'tan Shard that Trayzn has called the "source" of his power and the crown jewel of his collection. The fabled Wraithbone choir of Altansar Preserved head of Sebastian Thor Ossified husk of an Enslaver A giant man wearing baroque Power Armour, whose face is contorted in a permanent scream An Custodes Brother Cassiel of the Blood Angels, seconded to the Deathwatch. His face was frozen in a moment of fear. Raven Guard and Salamanders battling on Isstvan V. Carnac World Spirit shrine Acabrius War Catachan regiments A temporal device containing the Tyranid invasion of Vuros, which has been sparked by Trayzn himself (Disposed of after several full-scale battles caused by Tyranid breakouts). Horus Heresy-era Ultramarines Vostroyan Firstborn Regiments Lost Tanith Regiments Salamanders thought lost during the Klovian disaster. Inquisitor Greyfax and her retinue (escaped). The Bell of Saint Gersthal (disposed of after causing irreparable damage to his forces and collection). A twelve foot tall Krork in power armor more advanced than Astartes Power Armor. A damaged but still functioning Webway portal A troupe of Harlequins A massive stock of uncorrupted Emperor's Children geneseed (traded to Fabius Bile) A perfect clone of the Primarch Fulgrim as well as Flavius Alkenex and his warriors A Bride of the Emperor A Force of Sisters of Battle A Mechanicus Magos A force of Dusk Raiders An antique Dreadnought A Tyranid Hive Tyrant A T'au diplomat that was sent to negotiate with Trazyn A Destroyer Lord who attempted to scour an entire planet on its own. A large tableau of Ork warriors in mid-combat. A Shard of The Deceiver The Ultramarines Lieutenant Castus The Blood Angel Rafelo The Plague Champion Repulgus Grue

I imagine a Trazin-themed army list to contain at least 5% Lego minifigs, some of those old soft plastic silver knight figurines, Army Men miniatures and a few My little Pony figurines for good measure.

Meanwhile I just hope one day we get a story about the Blood Ravens discovering Trazen's cache and beginning the ultimate klepto war

Trazyn is basically a WH fan inside the WH universe - he loves lore and to collect minis.

Trazyn is such a collector that he has Ranni the Witch from Elden Ring at 3:24

After reading The Infinite and the The Divine, Trazyn has become my favorite character, next to Ciaphas Cain. But whereas Cain is the epitome of the good man that cares for his people, Trazyn is the trolling meme Necron lord who just lives to collect and to improve his collection, messing up with everyone. Trazyn you great bastard, take me for your collection!!

“Trazyn watching Weshammer Video and collecting them” Trazyn: “Finally . . . I have them all.”

A couple of blood ravens or admech breaking into trazyn’s stash would be the best premise for a video game

having read infinite and the divine multiple times: trazyn is by far my favorite character in 40k right up there with commissar guant, hes funny yet strange, caring yet completely inhuman, he has deep depths to his character and hes simultaneously very simple. i think he is probably one of if not the most interesting characters in 40k, and i would love to just read book after book of him just going around "liberating" relics. his antics are endlessly fun.

Loyalist Fulgrim would be the greatest redemption story in the history of 40k. What an incredible journey that would be

Trazyn is, without a doubt, the greatest albeit obnoxious Librarian of Time. Screwed Up in His mind, the curse of pretty much living half an eternity, and dedicated to His Goal of preserving and collecting History. Thanks for giving him a good Time on Stage WesHammer, never Change 👍

Yarrik was really unique until they off'd him to justify a wagh against chaos. Having honored nemesis in the grimdark was kinda an awesome contrast to all the endless pointless war. The Orks belief in Yarriks badassery also warping reality to make him fight better and live longer is also an amazing play on a self fulfilling prophecy. Getting rid of that to just fridge him is a really lame idea

I love Trazyn. Him and Orikan are hilarious at times in the Infinite and the Devine. A good book for any fan of Warhammer. Another top notch video Wes.

It would be interesting to see Trazyn go on a shopping spree and see what he can collect from the Vaults of Terra.

He's such a lovely guy. He yeeted a bell to the eldar as a sign of lolz.

The old man fight with the two necrons was the best visual representation ever

In the next update to the Ork codex, it should allude that Gazkull has gone missing, potential to find angreon. Then in the following Necron codex update it should casually mention Trazyns newest additions, a famous figure from the Astra Militarum and a rather large Ork that seemed very interested in freeing him.

"You cant steal from the dead, thats called acheology" one of my favorite lines from The infinite and the divine

Wes my dude I appreciate your existence on the internet, your storytelling and lore videos really bring me in to the setting.

He's like an unholy mix of Einstein, Deadpool, Dr. Jones, Dr. Hammond and the player. It's up thier with the Orks in sheer genius of design.

I have a suspicion that Trazyn's Mechanicus Buddy is Magos Varnak, the head of the unlucky team who first encountered the Tyranids on Tyran - in "War in the Museum" Trazyn cuts off the announcement about him at "Magos V-" before waking him up. I think Trazyn "rescued" Varnak, who agreed as he could keep sending his data back to the Mechanicus (Trazyn rather kindly sends it on for him).

I have a hard time finding 40k stories that scratch that itch for horror and the unknown. I love the stuff you're making. Also if that's you playing Fabius, great voice acting!

He has one of everything he threw a Bell destroying his collection into the web way just to F with the eldar I love him I'm happy you brought that up at, 27:26, and also the fact that he can have a galactic scale pissing match for millions of years lol

Pretty new to 40k, a year or so, and so far Trazen is my favorite character so far. His determination of collecting is unsurpassed

He probably has multiple artifacts that can bring back the Emperor into full strength and told the Imperium about it and doesn't give it just to troll them and probably has similar things for every other faction

My favourite thing about Trazyn is how he's friends with Cawl, even with their different ideologies

I absolutely love this little gremlin of a necron. This is by far the best video you've ever made.

I love trazyn so much. He’s just the best.

Trazyn "liberating" the emperor would be so fucking funny. Imagine some metal dude rolls up and kidnaps your god, breaking FTL travel in the process, and then just puts him in an exhibit for all eternity.

27:38. Interresting he is so good at collecting he was able to get even Ranni

The Astra Militarum leader did not die. Trazyon got him. Now he is part of the collection.

Trazyn is both a Hero and a Troll the Galaxies biggest troll but thats is why we love him so much as an Char

I find it rather flattering Trazyn considers the emperor to be the crown jewel of his entire collection.

That cestine chapel knock off with the warrior and night bringer was very cool.

Trazyn is the only one who's not chaotic in the 40k universe.

The necron to play warhammer in the warhammer universe. I dont think anyone really dislikes him

Trazyn is an amazing character. Ciaphas Cain is probably still my favorite and might make for a good deep dive as well!

You majorkill and the remembrancer are by far my favorite warhammer lore Chanel’s

I was about to sleep, then I saw Wes upload. Now we up watching with da BOYZ

Trazyn is just a Warhammer player in the lore he wants to collect everything and everyone for his gloryfied shelf

Trazyn is GW's real CEO, he pulls strings to have fun since he lost his past, he tries to make up for it building a great story of the future, he nudges things on the right way to get the best one. I'm sure that he'll be a central figure in the avoidance of the end times.

Trazyn is amazing even though I love my Eldar ( Not them Dark Eldar wretches ) he is incredibly powerful and his book with Orikan is 1 of my favorite books of all time

Also, I appreciate sponsors for practical things like T-Shirts as opposed to Raid: Shadow Legends. I'm getting old, so there's that, but it's nice to get ads for things I need.

Hero or Troll? Yes.

I was sick this week and was looking for a good long video from WesHammer about Trazyen with no avail. But then woke up this morning to see my wish had come true! It was on pair to the waking feeling of a Christmas miracle. Thank you so much!!! 😊 this video is awesome!

Wes I’m so glad I found your channel cause I do not have the drive to deep dive into Warhammer lore so far. Not only does it sound tedious and expansive, but it’s also confusing. However you seem to just outright make that not seem so. You make it simple, fun, and interesting to know more about the lore. I didn’t know much except Chaos before, but now I know things like Slaanesh was birthed from the Eldar being idiots, that there were orks so powerful that they rivaled gods, and that there’s a good daemon in Warhammer? Keep it up my guy! I always love learning more through you! ❤

Petition to make Trazyn the owner of the British royal museum

You should do a video on Be'lakor. He is a super underrated daemon prince with deep rooted ties to fantasy and 40ks histories as a shadowy eldrech horror

Been waiting for this one. Learned everything about 40k from you, these videos, and actually ironically especially the longer ones, are so easily digested, and Ive rewatched the timeline one a few times too many, but not many enough 🤣

Wonderful video weshammer I will add this to my collection.

I've been listening to the Caiphus Cain books, and I feel he would be a good character to do a deep dive on. Much like Trazyn, he is considered a humorous character in the 40K Universe.

Trazyn is the best character ever he is the reason I started necrons which was my first army instead of sisters, after reading the infinite and the divine I now own 11 trazyns

Great presentation style in this video It works well keep up the great work!

Trazyn is one of the few characters in Warhammer 40k where him just living his best life doesn’t just not hurt anyone, but actually does some real good sometimes.

Wait, so even as sick and frail as the Necrons were during their time as beings of flesh, they're still stronger than this insane fight? Damn.

Awesome video dude!!! I wouldn't mind seeing more of Fulgrim since his and most other traitors had fairly bad reasons for falling and it seems like their souls might have been shattered when they fell so this could make a bunch of sense on the lore aspect to one day have a loyal Fulgrim or a loyal Magnus.

Ayyy that’s some great voicing for Trayzn you did there! Sounds like a cybernetic Joker which is fitting. Great in depth lore on this skele as always man.

A deep dive into Erda and the other Perpetuals would be pretty cool

Ah yes the most beloved character of 40k

For Trazyns final piece, it's him collecting a stasis cube of him collecting artifacts.

Great video. Love the character and the attention on the faction. Thanks for your work!

Thank you for this very interesting vidéo, I didn't knew much about Trazin before it. I knew about the fact he got Creed during Cadia's last stand but didn't knew it would be for making Cadia stand, one last time for eternity. About the fulgrim as a loyalist the chance for Trazin letting this happen by releasing fulgrim perfect clone's would be at the prospect of the historical moments that would come out if this. If he do it, there is a very big chance it's would be for the sake of finding new fine additions to his collection.

Hey Weshammer I was thinking it be cool to see you do a break down on every legion and do full backstory’s like you did with the death guard I know it would take time so take all the time but if you can do this I know a lot of people would enjoy it and I know Halloween has passed but I’d love more horror story’s from 40k keep up all the amazing work you do and I don’t know for sure but I give you mad respect if you have to edit and do everything yourself because it just shows you enjoy doing every part of even you could pay someone to do it Ps we love you weshammer keep it up never stop doing what you love ❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙❤️💙

Legend has it he's been trolling the Chaos marines with a tesseract trap. Trapping them in a loop Because he finds it funny

Love the content man keep doing what you love.

Thanks for another great video Wes! This actually got me interested in the book and I just downloaded it today

I love the idea of an uncorrupted clone of Fulgrim fighting alongside Guilliman at some point. Considering what we learned about Guilliman and saw how he conducts himself in the Dark Imperium series, I can only imagine the intriguing conversations between the two. The revelation of the Fulgrim clone learning what became of his original self. Not to mention the ever interesting subject of how Guillimans old and newer ideals clash with the modern Imperium and how he has learned from his father's mistakes and from his experiences dealing with the modern Imperium, plus the ideas of what direction will Guilliman push the Imperium towards. I can only imagine just how honestly epic it would be if those two were reunited.

Trazyn is a great character. A lot of the necron lords are cool.

I for one would love to see you do a special on Gaunts Ghosts and the Tanith First and Only. So many epic and memorable characters in that series.

He’s my favorite so far 💀. Anyways, love you dude, your content got me interested in 40k again, tho I think I’ll stick to the books for now till we get a show or a movie 😔. Appreciate the effort that you put into these videos, keep it up 👍🏾

so not sure if any one else noticed but in the image at 22:50, you can see what looks like Ranni from Elden Ring as part of Trazyn collection ... guess even being in a different franchise won't stop him

Two things One: I would totally like to see a deep dive on the Fulgrim clone and implications thereof. Two: I would totally love to see your renditions of your favorite scenes from books with that level of voice acting you've had with Bile

The fight scene you showed my God that was epic

Trazyn is the best character and nothing can stop me from thinking that

Trazyn is in my too three fav characters, easily! Question: do you think Trazyn would go after the Prisoner of the Emerald Cave?

Thank uuuuu ❤️❤️ I wanted vid about this guy for so long 😂

Big fan of Argal Tal myself. His bromance with kharn was pretty great

I am sure this guy is based off the character that is immortal and uses his time to fly around the universe to insult each and every being personally and in alphabetical order from hitchhikers guild to the galaxy by Douglas Adams. He just has that … immortal cynicism

This made me consider putting Trazyn as a canon roleplay character set in one of my friends discord RPs. I’m actually gonna try and keep y’all updated -update- So far Trazyn has managed to sneak into the villains HQ and stole like 3 relics. One of em being a fuckin deathray

Great vid. Ive never really been into necrons, but this makes me want to research and learn more on that bit of the 40k universe. Which I'm off to start on right now. And the angry old men reference, Lmao.

Crazy question about Trazyn on the tabletop. Can he use Tesseract vaults? Can he deploy units or characters from other factions? Can he capture units or characters used by the opponent?

the fact that a Brit came up with Trazyn is a level or irony that will never escape me

3:25 Look at the left of Trazyn to who is sitting there. Is it just me or did Trazyn somehow manage to transcend the boundary of the entire 40k universe and SOMEHOW managed to enter the Elden Ring universe and stea - I mean liberate - Ranni the Witch and than take her back to his vault and stash her there.

That was the best. I can't wait to build and paint him for an upcoming army

i just got goosebumps and a single tear rolled down my eye at the thought of a Fulgrim redemption arc 😭😭💕
