Editing Cyrus (section)

==Chaos Rising==
{{Topquote|For ''once'', be quiet and listen. The chapter expects us to be perfect, obedient instruments of its leaders. Leaders who are barely worthy of life, much less respect. Captain Boreale, who [[Fail|walked three companies into the slaughter of Kaurava.]] Captain Angelos, who [[That Guy|lapped up the credit for our victories against the Tyranids.]] Even Captain Thule, who [[Lazy Marines|chose to sulk on Calderis after the Kronus debacle.]] ''These'' are our leaders? The people we are supposed to obey without question? No, these are '''cowards and imbeciles''', every bit as worthless as Governor Vandis and ''all the others''. These incompetents learned ''nothing'' from my teachings. I owe them ''no'' loyalty.|Cyrus' parting message if he's the traitor}}

Cyrus goes [[Angry Marines|Angry Marine]] on the ass of a sorcerer who's stealing his scouts, and gains corruption if not brought along to kick the pansy faggot's ass. Given that it's a bunch of soft targets, with a few camped in cover, against missile-toting plague marines and chaos dreadnoughts, it generally goes about as well as you'd expect, which is to say on any difficulty worse than hard, every single initiate gets totaled. He also gives you intel on the forces of chaos that turns out to be complete bullshit, as Tarkus aptly points out. If he does go traitor, he cites the incompetence of Indrick Boreale, [[Eliphas the Inheritor]], [[Azariah Kyras]] and [[Gabriel Angelos]] for fucking up the sector and the Blood Ravens in particular, and decides to ally with [[Ulkair]] to remake the sector to his liking. This indeed proves that he doesn't know what he's talking about, as disparaging the two best characters of the entire [[Dawn of War]] series and a man cunning enough to become a double daemon prince is BALD and FEWLISH. There's also the fact that [[Derp| a scout sergeant tries to take on three terminator squads and a dreadnought, fully expecting to win]], although given that Cyrus is fully capable of completing entire missions on his own, him taking down 3 squishy terminator squads and a dreadnought isn't that too far off his set of skills. Of course, anything trying to take down a tag-team of Davian Thule and Tarkus loses, no discussion. When fighting him, he'll use the very same invisible mine-spamming cheese that you know and love against you.

Cyrus is also quite possibly one of the greatest [[Blood Ravens#Bloody Magpies|Bloody Magpies]] ever. Other Blood Raves only managed to be "gifted" with singular pieces of wargear and such. Cyrus? He managed to convince Eliphas to "gift" him an entire Black Legion strike force.
