Do you think however, before they were put into the C'tan bodies, they had such identities and concepts like "Death"/"Technology"/"Deception". I feel like these things would have come only after they were able to interact with the material universe, and prior to that they were simply just.. .gaseous lifeforms really infused with solar energy but otherwise not embodiments of concepts in the universe. The concepts having come later that they adopted, rather than being inherit. Consider that the Necrons were already dying before bringing in the Nightbinger, and had to use Technology to give the Void Dragon his form, and so on.
It isn't impossible they were the concepts before but simply powerless prior to having bodies, but it doesn't seem to fit with the theme of them essentially being just solar parasites sucking up the power of suns.
