The '''Cacophony''', known in the ancient tongue as '''Kakophoni''', was a weapon based on the destructive force of sound, as well as the name of the unit of marines that wielded them. Those specialized troops were created by the [[Emperor's Children]] in the early stages of the [[Horus Heresy]].{{Fn|1}}

==Overview==

First developed upon the corruption of the Legion as well as their [[Primarch]] [[Fulgrim]] in the aftermath of the [[Battle of Isstvan III]], practices and experiments that had once been long secret were unleashed and fused with malign [[Warp]] forces. The results were savagely powerful weapons produced from a fusion of Imperial and [[Xenos]] technology.{{Fn|1}}

The weapon itself is called a '''Cacophony'''. It was able to unleash blasts of screaming discordant energy that could rupture flesh and incinerate metal, but their most terrifying ability was to open up the minds of those they touched to the horrors of the [[Warp]]. However, these weapons were also dangerously unpredictable in their early versions.{{Fn|1}}
