'''Cypher''' is said to be one of [[The Fallen]]. At the end of the Horus Heresy, [[Lion El'Jonson]] returned to Caliban to find [[Luther ]] turned to the forces of [[Chaos]]. El'Jonson landed and took up the fight against Luther while the [[Dark Angels]] fleet bombarded the planet from above. Eventually, Luther defeated El'Jonson but when he did, he realised his mistakes and collapsed, unwilling to fight any more. The Chaos Gods realised they their chosen had failed and sent a vast warp storm that sucked up the traitor Dark Angels and spread them across time and space.
Cypher was one of these Fallen Angels , but no one actually knows his true name. He appears randomly throughout the galaxy, but is rumoured to be moving towards Terra. He is famous for his pistol abilities, being able to fire precisely on with every shot and , even fire when using two weapons at once, no matter the chaos of the battle around him. His characteristic combination of [[Bolt Pistol]] and [[Plasma Pistol]] are known throughout the [[galaxy]] as every [[Segmentum]] has rumours of Cypher-like people. It is likely that Cypher has appeared in every Segmentum over time, although a good deal of the rumours of his appearance are probably other people in similar clothing.
He wears his [[Power Armour]] but covers it in robes in an attempt to hide himself, but this look has made him obvious. Perhaps this was the point, but he does seem to attract other members of the Fallen Angels to his side. It is unknown how they communicate and why they are drawn to him.
"I know not whether Cypher is the greatest threat, or the greatest hope for the Imperium. I only pray we can stop him before we find out."
One source, named the Heresy of Cognitive Dissonance by [[Cardinal]] Elyass Vallkante, mentions some form of knife used possibly by Cypher. It is said he struck a being of golden light and his weapon was absorbed into the being. Cypher carried a [[C'tan Phase Weapon]] but it was most likely lost in the body of a gold creature most probably , the necrodermis of the C'tan, the [[Deceiver ]], during a battle. The conclusion of the battle is unknown as a shroud prevented the spectator form from seeing the outcome.
