Its as if an author was the MC, writing their way to victory. Herakkon should have had the ability to instigate an emergency recall of key Custodes or have been able to lean on further Imperial Institutions. Ancia at his side, Herakkon would not have gone down, and have been in full position to deny Cipher at the end (yet without dying, would not have had the insight to make the decision he did). Ancient Artificer Armour - Like many of the Fallen Angels, Cypher wears an ancient suit of dark-green coloured Power Armour matching the pre-Horus Heresy Dark Angels shorn of livery and covered with simple white robes.

The narrative also has Cypher possessing knowledge that appears impossible for him to have, including events that transpired hundreds of years ago. He exhibits something akin to foresight or time shenanigans. Although it's not entirely explained, a Doomscryer (incredibly powerful psyker) implies that Cypher is consciously choosing future paths, hinting at possible time manipulation or external guidance of some kind. Replacing Inquisitor Arnuldus to instigate the collapse of the Hive World of Septius VII [Needs Citation] Across the galaxy the Fallen set planets, systems or even whole sectors ablaze with war. Yet more ominously to the Dark Angels, they raved aloud of those very secrets that the Sons of Lion El'Jonson had sworn to keep silent. Those Fallen carried on from the teachings of Luther -– believing the Emperor to be false and thinking that their own superhuman abilities gave them the right to seize what they wanted, and to rule over the weak. The Fallen saw no reason not to fight for themselves. It offered a better fate than acting as enforcers for a thankless and repressive regime.

In the wake of Cypher's escape from Terra at the start of the Era Indomitus, he is once again being pursued by the Dark Angels. This pursuit led them into disaster during the Massacre at Darkmor. Instead of ambushing Cipher, Malachi walks right into Herakkon. Because it went just as planned. Cipher's plan. He knew that specific Fallen hated him and the Imperium and only followed the Sword, which Cipher at the time did not have. He knew his mind was being scryed. He knew that Fallen would betray him. So he fed the Custodes to the Unforgiven. Chaos Lord • Exalted Champion • Chaos Champion • Aspiring Champion • Sorcerer Lord • Daemon Prince • Daemon Prince of Nurgle • Daemon Prince of Tzeentch • Death Guard Lord The Fall of Caliban was one of the last major catastrophes suffered by the Imperium during the bloody days of the Horus Heresy. This is the terrible secret borne by the Dark Angels these last ten millennia; that the incorruptible I st Legion fell to corruption when the Legion's second-in-command, Luther, corrupted many of their brethren through the foul lure of Chaos. Cypher may be attempting to rewrite the history of the Dark Angels and Fallen. In M41 he turned himself in to the Inner Circle and with the help of the Watchers in the Dark managed to convince them to use Tuchulcha and its brother engines to open up a time rift over the ruins of Caliban ostensibly to prevent Astelan and Typhus from doing the same. The rift was ultimately destroyed by Azrael, creating the same warp storm that originally scattered the Fallen. After the battle, Cypher vanishes. [6]The Raven Guard were the first Legion to test the now ubiquitous Mark VI ‘Corvus’ Pattern armour. These upgrades let you equip your units with retro-style prototype helmets, and shoulder pads embellished with their corvine emblem. Alpha Legion MKVI Upgrades Cypher does not market in truths, but stories and secrets. He repeatedly goes on about this as we transition viewpoints he is narrating. Its almost a rhythmic chapter break. During this entire time, Cypher and friends are chilling, being analyzed for all they know and are even thinking. We are introduced to the Doomscryer, another variant of Super Psyker the Imperium maintains. One that can walk in the footsteps of a Custodes and talk directly at elevated Assassins.
