chaos very much isnt soulless though
daemons etc are quite literally borne of the immaterium and created from the thoughs/energies of sapient beings
so even if the daemons themselves might not have souls they are inexorably tied to souls
neither are their motivations complex. Khorne's motivations can be summed up in 3 words: kill, maim and burn. Tzeentch doesnt have a catchy slogan but his agenda boils down to change for the sake of change. Slaanesh is obvious and all the rest of them equally simplistic at their core. Theyre twisted mockeries of gods taken to an extreme. Nurgle is the best example in that hes the god of "life" but that life consists primarily of bacteria and diseases instead of rabbits and sparrows
c'tan and the necrons are the complete opposite of this. C'tan has nothing to do with the warp or the immaterium which is possibly what he resented about the old ones. The necrons, similarly, gave up their connection when they became c'tans thralls. The necrons were literally the grim reapers bent on extinguishing life for c'tan to consume
but now this makes absolutely no sense. The necrons' slumber makes a lot more sense now but you have to wonder why they even bothered to wake up, much less conquer the galaxy. If they were just going around trying to find a way to restore themselves to life it would at least make sense but instead theyre killing things for no reason other than theyre mean/jealous and it contradicts their prior actions
