Malas Dyce was an Inquisitor of the Ordo Xenos, who in the early days of the Achilus Crusade lead a mission to the Space Hulk Charnel Spectre, rumored to contain the remnants of a relic ship of the Great Crusade and which might have once belonged to the fledgling Inquisition. As they entered the Space Hulk, Dyce and his team (which was comprised of his Acolytes and a Deathwatch Kill-Team) came under attack by a nest of Xenos which had been living on the Space Hulk and using it as a base for centuries. Dyce and his team thought at first they were under attack by Genestealers and gave chase, only to begin to be attacked by members of their team. Far too late, they realized they were being attacked by the shape-shifting Xenos known as the Lacrymole, thought to have been wiped out by Inquisitor Parnival Gründvald after being declared Xenos Horrificus. The devious Lacrymole were killing isolated members of the group and assuming their forms to attack the rest of the unsuspecting team.[1]

Soon, only Dyce and a few remaining members of the Kill-Team were all that were left of the team and the Battle-Brothers were deeply suspicious that Dyce was an alien imposter. To save himself and bring back word of what had happened, Dyce slipped away from the Kill-Team during a firefight and made good his escape from the Charnel Spectre, leaving all of his companions behind. Upon his return, Dyce was unable to convince his peers that the fabled Lacrymole still lived and was derided for the loss of the Kill-team. He ended his career as a broken and babbling old man whispering of aliens in the dark.[1]
