i've always been of the opinion that cypher, in the present, is on a course for the rock. that once he gets there he'll return the sword to jonson (the sword on cypher's back i believe to be jonson's sword), which will facilitate his 'awakening'. ultimately i think cypher is loyal, maybe not to the imperium, fellow astartes, or even emps, but loyal to jonson.

i havn't read any 'post-30k' dark angel novels so maybe my opinion can be refuted, but i don't think he's an agent of chaos: he may be a renegade and loyal to no-one but himself but from what i know of him he doesn't seem to have any chaotic corruption, at least not any physical, or observable, corruption... although he is 10,000 years old so, if he spent considerable time within warpspace dedicated to chaos then surely he would have been subject to some corruption by now (maybe he's got through the last 10 millenia with the use of a stasis chamber or something).

i've no idea what his genuine agenda is but i don't believe he's an agent of chaos.
