Cephesus was one the most revered Chaplains on Caliban during the time of the Heresy; he too took part in the fighting against the Primarch and was hunted by the Dark Angels in order to redeem themselves of their dark secret.  Cephesus was actually captured by the Dark Angels and was tortured by the Interrogator-Chaplains this combined with his prolonged exposure to the warp made him dedicate himself to the Chaos gods.  By an act of fate (or possibly by the Chaos gods) he made his escape.  He searched for others like himself where he could preach his disgust of what the Dark Angels had become.  It was during this time he discovered the Angel of Blades.  His hatred of the Chaplains is far beyond that of his hatred of what the Dark Angels had become, and now he hunts them and takes their torturous blades and uses them against the Interrogator-Chaplains of the Dark Angels so they can learn the error of their ways.
