→Fall from grace
And so the Masque was forced to dance for all eternity, across space and time, for both mortal and immortal audiences. As she re-enacts Slaanesh's greatest conquest and victories, her mask changes to match the roles of the characters she plays. So powerful is the lure of the Masque's display that those who see it are inevitably compelled to join in the performance. Even Daemons are not exempt from the Masque's enchantments. As the dance goes on, the tempo rises, while the Masque's unwitting chorus struggles desperately to keep up, and eventually dance themselves to death, using up their last ounce of strength and dying breath to keep pace with her twirls and somersaults.{{Fn|1}}
Such is the Masque's power that she was even able to ensnare [[Grey Knights]] into her melodies during the battle for [[Angriff Primus]]. However [[Castellan]] [[Garran Crowe]] was able to eventually predict the Daemon's movements and kill banish her with the [[Blade of Antwyr]].{{Fn|5}}
During the [[Battle of Biel-tan]] The Masque emerged alongside [[Skarbrand]] and was able to invade [[Biel-tan]] through a [[Webway Portal]] on [[Ursulia]]. The Masque was eventually able to hack into Biel-tan's [[Infinity Circuit]] and would have destroyed all of its souls if not for the efforts of [[Yvraine]], who was able to summon [[Yncarne]] and foil the Daemon.{{Fn|2}}
