I'm personally a fan of the theory that Cypher is Omegon. It's the perfect cover for a primarch who has to help the Imperium, but also influence his fallen legion. There's no way Omegon is walking around looking like an Alpha Legionaire. I think he wants to return to the Emperor and pledge his allegiance anew and awaken the loyal Alpha legionaires beneath the palace. It also makes some poetic sense to me. The primarch of the last legion disguised as a member of the first.

He does that, but the scene cuts before we can find out. Next time we see him, everyone's cool with him
So I'd like to make a clarification. In Luther novel "Luther: First of the fallen" the archtraitor himself does say that Corswain and Zahariel were seen combating each other but who came victorious from their battle was not clarified. Also Corswain is not stated to be the Dark Angel's first Supreme Grand Master as that role waa taken by Farith Redloss, voted commander of the Dreadwing. So Cypher's identity is a mystery with the most prominent candidates being Zahariel or Corswain. This claim seems to be supported by a quote in the "Unforgiven" novel where Cypher sees a champion of the Ravenwing using Corswain's sword amd adresses him:" I knew a great man who carried that blade. You better honour his memory" or smth similar I can't remember the exact excerpt. So it is either Zahariel thinking of Corswain or it is Corswain himself applauding himself.

That makes total sense. So many other primarchs have kindred sons who share in their powers, like magnus' sorcerers or Corax's shadow walkers. Hilarious if he was just the lion the whole time but nobody noticed. Just a little bit of his soul clipped off by luther.

Forest walking is an ascendant ability, like Corvus's "turn into ravens" ability. No son of the primarch would inherit these abilities, at most they would have the lite version of wraith slipping, and never the ascendant ability. It's power level requirement is too high for normal astartes

Wait a minute, hold up. The Emperor did speak to Cypher. I know I remember hearing that. He was about to do something (can't remember exactly what) and then a Custode told him to "Wait" and then The Big E spoke with him. Nobody knows what was said yet. Pretty sure I'd heard that from MajorKill.

this is wrong, read the book
I hadn't heard of the theory that Cypher is Omegaron before. I quite like that if he picked up this role being a loyal son of the Emperor but needing to hide himself after the Heresy and this being the reasoning for the prophecy in the Alpharius primary book.
Quintessential 40k character, he is iconic. And like many things about the lore, his motivations are inscrutable.
Thank you for this! I can only see cypher being 1 person and that’s omegon no other could escape from that prison and defeat the people he has without being of equal power of a primarch and his ability to manipulate as the serpent can honestly has to be omegon
Glad you covered this guy. He's pretty cool
I would like cypher to be zahariel as it would close the circle with him and the emperor. By once saving him and now "freeing" the emperor from the golden throne.
OH, what if he was actually running around for lion to collect and recruit the fallen to become “risen” and was carrying lions sword with him as proof of the lions commitment to give them atonement.
While I can't wait for the Lion to meet and hug Rowboat, I am so keen to see a meeting with Cypher!
I was waiting for this one. In particular. Thanks dude. Great work as ever.
I cannot wait for this one! Cypher is my favourite character!
You know it'd be kind of funny if cypher didn't know who he was supporting like he had no clue what he was doing either. He was just going with the flow the whole time
I believe Cypher is either alpharion or omegon. His ability for deception, manipulation, and misdirection are the trademark of the alpha Legion.

One thing that was kinda wrong was that after the breaking of Caliban Corswain didn’t take over the dark angels, instead Farith Redloss leader of the dreadwing became the first chapter master. By all accounts Corswain disappeared after his battle with cypher. That’s why Corswain is probably cyphers most likely identity.

Omegon himself ;).
Forgot to say that he used to carry a c’tan blade but it was absorbed into the Deceiver when he 1v1’d the C’tan.
Plot twist he's one of the enhanced experiments that escaped from Luna
Cypher, he helped G-man get out of the rift he got trapped in along with the Cabal of Eldars, he only asked for an audience with the Emperor, sadly it was not to be, he was caught by the Custodians :)
Cypher is the best character in the entire setting
Awesome and informational video 🎉
I just got into an argument with someone who claimed NO fallen exept Luther turned to chaos. Thank you for yhis confirmation.
Im also going with the theory that the cure Cypher is Alpharius/Omegon. Like others have said he operates just like an Alpha Legionary. But doubters saying that Alpharius died......if anyone had a way to fool his brothers into thinking that they are dead it would be Alpharius.
Thank you for your information video

The truth is, like many things in 40k the answers Gw gives us will likely be disappointing. Hopefully Cypher’s intentions remain unclear
One has to agree with the fact that his modus operandi is more in line with the Alpha Legion than the Dark Angels…Alpharius was able to hide his true identity from the Lion, so it is possible that Cypher is not a Fallen Dark Angel at all…

The Dark Angels are also into clandestine operations, they sent a force to attack Terra and capture Cypther, those sent killed loyalist Marines and Custodes, had their markings removed, and used melta bombs on their own dead to hide their actions. Also Cypher clearly has the same forest walking ability we saw The Lion use recently.

CYPHER IS OMEGON, long live the single hydra
I feel like real identity of Cypher, turning out to be Alpharius/Omegon, would fit quite well.
I personally believe Cypher is Zahariel. He is an insanely powerful Psyker, and one who is loyal to Caliban and the Primarch above all else. I believe he is a perpetual much like Gramaticus, and was gifted powers and knowledge from the Watchers and the Cabal. Who learned there lesson with Gramaticus and Alpharion Omegon, who didn't heed there warnings and instead chose to follow other plans and ideals. Cypher is the embodiment of the Order, and the Knights of Caliban, and with the return of Lion El'Johnson, Zahariel will finally show himself to his brother Azrael, and his mentor and father figure the Lion.
With the new son of the forest book. What if cypher was a projection of the Lions mind in his sleep. Reaching out from this warp forest to aid his sons. Like a shard of him. The watchers seem to live there with him. Explains how cypher disappears and escapes. He just goes into the warp forest.
Cypher is the imperium greatest hope or its greatest threat
I still like to believe that he's Zahariel.
The lion laid eyes on Cypher and exclaimed "Holy hell, Gary is that you!? You remember where we stashed the weed? It's been 10,000 years" To which Cypher replied "Yes gene-father... As a matter of fact I have an ounce left of Lemon Sororitas Haze, would you like to hit this bong I integrated into my plasma pistol? The mechanicus integrated a triple percolator"😎😎😎
an interesting thing GR seems to recognize the sword.

The theory of Cypher being alpharius/Oregon isn't likely, primarchs can sense each other, so when he was in the presence of guilliman, guilliman would have known.

Correct. Corswain was missing
Cypher fills the same role as Alpharius Omegon, where thier actions are so mysterious and seeminly nonsensical from an outside perspective that the logical leaps and theories become increasingly more detached from reality simply by virtue of trying to make sense of their actions.
8:06 is this true and verifiable Remebrancer? Is so I knew it!!! There was no other named dark angles left at the end of heresy that was more than capable of filling the lions shoes. Corswain is such a badass who better to serve as the first supreme grandmaster of the chapter as lord seneschal of the dark angels legion Corswain knew his gene father would never have allowed Gulliman to break up his legion so enshrined that the unforgiven chapters would be a legion in all but name.
Hay I would like to know did the lion meet Cypher
Is it omegon?
I think Cypher is operating under the direct orders of the Emperor.
Me"man.... who is this guy"? Cypher"yeah..to be honest..even I myself am not sure at this point"?
Can Cipher please just accidentally let loose one of the lost primarchs as he wrecks his way out of the palace? Then we find out that theres 10000 year old space marines loyal to said lost primarch and the watchers in the dark work for for the lost legion
What are the watchers?
so the lion did forgive some of the fallen angels (and they are still alive?) That the dark angels were hunting?
some say he is the third brother primarch of the alpha legion Omegon any one know if thats true. seeking forgivness just like the fallen? if the 1st forgives the fallen why not him?
Who's gonna break the cipher for cypher?
Cypher no cyphing.
Farith Redloss took over the Legion after Caliban. Corswain was missing.
Cypher’s armor is black, not dark green. The Inquisition is on its way.
I say he is either Alpharius or an Alpha Legion plant!
What if he is The Hero
Cypher is Omegon
I think cypher can forest walk like the lion
Zahariel?
Just one suggestion. I think for future videos it would be great if you got all facts before recording. Zahariel wasn't Lord Cypher until much much later. In fact, only after Zahariel fell to Chaos, he killed the original Cypher and assumed the mantle. In your video you make it sound as if he was Cypher from the start, which simply isn't the case. What is true thou that the identity of the current Cypher is shrouded in mystery, and Zahariel is a hot contender (for the aforementioned reason), although he was presumably killed by Corswain, which would mean it cannot be him (other candidates are Corswain, or if you want to go all tinfoil mode Omegon from the Alpha Legion)
Zahariel El'Zurias? I thought this was Cypher
👍👍.
Ah yes lord Cypher, the guy known for pulling chaos cults and greater Deamons out of his booty hole, man was a real problem a few months ago
Ω
I don't think Cypher is traitor his circular path leads to terra and his ability to escape I believe comes from the wmperor
Maybe He's a eldar
Luther did nothing wrong. The destruction of Caliban's natural forests was the foulest crime.
