Corrected wikilink spelling for 'Kakophoni'
Marius took his weaponised instrument to war with him on the fields of [[Isstvan V]], leading a cohort of similarly armed and stimulated Marines into battle at the [[Drop Site Massacre]]. Now completely depraved, Marius had fixed wraps of skin from the ''Maraviglia'' dead to his armour with spikes, had his ears removed and his eyes forever sewn open. His mouth was forever unnaturally wide open, contorted by the foul experience of the Maraviglia.
Marius would later become the leader of the Legion's Noise Marines, his units being dubbed '''The [[KakaphoniKakophoni]]'''. He also became deaf as a result of using his weapons and developed the habit of shouting whenever he spoke, as he could not hear how loud he had become. He participated in the attempt to exorcise the Daemon from Fulgrim, and expressed the willingness to kill Fulgrim rather than let a Daemon have his body.{{Fn|1}}
Marius later took part in the joint [[Iron Warriors]]/Emperor's Children expedition to the Eye of Terror and took part in the [[Battle of The Sepulchre of Isha's Doom]]. He fought against the Wraith constructs and the attack of the ''[[Sisypheum]]'' crew and managed to wound [[Iron Father]] [[Sabik Wayland]] and Dreadnought [['Karaashi' Bombastus]] but was killed by Morlock Terminator [[Ignatius Numen]] whose deafness, which ironically was caused by Marius during the attack on the ''Sisypheum'', protected him from Marius's sonically enhanced scream. Numen's [[Volkite Cannon]] eradicated Marius completely.{{Fn|2}}
