'''Kyriss the Perverse''' was a [[Keeper of Secrets]].{{Fn|1a}}
Along with [[Ka'bandha]], he was one of the two [[daemonic]] "generals" who orchestrated the [[Battle of Signus Prime]] against the [[Blood Angels]] and their [[primarch]], [[Sanguinius]].{{Fn|1a}} [[Horus]] and Ka'Bandha however intended to use Kyriss as a "sacrifice" to drive Sanguinius into a rage and eventually turn him to [[Khorne]]. After Ka'Bandha was forced back into the [[Warp]], Kyriss informed Sanguinius that he would spare the Blood Angels of the [[Red Thirst]] and [[Black Rage]] if he took the hate of one of his lost sons into him and stepped into the realm of [[Chaos]], but to save his gene-father the [[Apothecary]] [[Meros]] did instead. In a rage over the fate of his son, Sanguinius decapitated Kyriss.{{Fn|1x1b}}
Ten-thousand years later Kyriss reappeared before the Blood Angels, this time to [[Dante]] and [[Mephiston]]. The Daemon offered the Blood Angels a bargain, that he would cure the [[Black Rage]] if Mephiston would become Slaanesh's champion. The offer was refused and Kyriss was expelled back into the Warp.{{Fn|2}}
