'''{{PAGENAME}}''' was a [[Thousand Sons]] [[Sorcerer|Magister]] of the [[Mind-Eaters]] thrallband, who . Hasophet received a [[Tzeentch]]-ordained vision that showed him his destiny. The vision revealed that sometime in the future, he will attain [[Daemonhood]] after devouring the thoughts and memories of an entire world. He was shown how to reach this goal and he then led the Mind-Eaters on the first of nine hundred and ninety-nine rites, that would take {{PAGENAME}} to this portended moment{{Fn|1a}}. Among the rites {{PAGENAME}} conducted over the next several millennia were: Turning the [[Night Lords]] [[Sorcerer]] [[Chaos Lord|Warlord]] [[Vasellisk]]'s body into the [[Shrouded Crystal]]{{Fn|1b}}, as well as killing the Thousand Sons [[Exalted Sorcerer]] [[Korthuphos]], in order to claim his two hearts{{Fn|1c}}. Sometime after the [[Great Rift]] was created, {{PAGENAME}} finally neared his goal and he needed to only complete the last rite on the [[Imperium]] [[Hive World]] [[Mangel III]]. When he and the Mind-Eaters arrived on the Hive World, they discovered it was being invaded by the [[Tau]], but this did not dissuade {{PAGENAME}} from beginning his final rite. However, instead of devouring the thoughts of the battling Imperium and Tau's minds, like his vision had shown, {{PAGENAME}} began absorbing their entire bodies. Even enormous war engines were absorbed by a screaming {{PAGENAME}}, who then began to grow and change shape. Suddenly {{PAGENAME}}'s howls of pain become roars, as his body pupated into a [[Mutalith Vortex Beast]], instead of the Daemon Prince his vision had led him to believe would occur. Despite this change though, numerous bodies and machines continued to be absorbed by {{PAGENAME}} and the great Warp vortex now emanating from his back, extended outwards with each newly consumed sacrifice. The vortex soon encircled the entire Hive World and with a final mind-tearing scream, Mangel III was torn from realspace. In its place, there is left only a perpetual dark shroud and an echo of Hasophet's final, pitiful cry.{{Fn|1d}}
