'''Eramis, Kell of Darkness''' (formerly known as '''Eramis, the Shipstealer''') is the [[Fallen]] [[Kell]] of the [[House of Salvation]] and the first Eliksni to wield the power of [[Stasis]] from [[The Witness]] and the [[Black Fleet]].

During this time, she and her mate [[Athrys]] were both members of the [[House of Devils|House of Dancers]] and had many hatchlings together, in addition to being a close friend of the scribe [[Variks]] of [[House of Judgement|House Judgement]]. However, their world's prosperity ended with the arrival of the Witness and the [[Black Fleet]], which brought about a cataclysmic event called the [[Whirlwind]] that destroyed Eliksni civilization. Eramis was one of the few Eliksni who witnessed the Traveler abandoning her people as it left [[Riis]] to its own destruction. | ||
Eramis survived the Whirlwind consumed with rage toward the Great Machine. Starting a new life as a nomadic Fallen of the [[House of Devils]], she elevated herself to the position of [[Baroness]] and earned the moniker of "Shipstealer". She would later lead the Fallen charge against the [[Guardian]]s of the [[Last City]] during the climactic battle of [[Twilight Gap]], slaughtering hundreds of Lightbearers in their final deaths. | Eramis survived the Whirlwind consumed with rage toward the Great Machine.

Following the failed attempt to steal Outbreak Prime and the SIVA it contained, Eramis abandoned the House of Devils banner and united former members of the Devils, Wolves and Dusk Houses under the [[House of Salvation]], with Eramis proclaiming herself as Kell. They began utilizing the [[Darkness]] as a means to destroy the [[Guardian]]s and [[The Last City]], going against the Fallen's traditional rules and ideals by willingly using and harnessing the very thing that [[Whirlwind|destroyed]] their [[Riis|home]].

Further, despite her attempts to hide, Eramis continued to serve the Witness, even as her forces were corrupted and those she once knew would be raised from death. Praksis, for example, was raised as The Defiled and made to guard the Nexus Control of the Seraph Station, the central control hub of the Warsat Network. However, Eramis's tone showed that the Shipstealer was beginning to doubt her cause and grow tired with the fighting. After the Guardians succeeded in infiltrating Seraph Station and slayed Praksis once again, Eramis made a brief correspondence with Mara Sov herself. The Reef Queen attempted to appeal to Eramis on what she used to be, how they can't get back what they lost and that they have only become tired with all that has happened. Despite Mara's efforts, Eramis merely sighed and cut communications. | Further, despite her attempts to hide, Eramis continued to serve the Witness, even as her forces were corrupted and those she once knew would be raised from death.

Unfortunately for the Shipstealer, her woes would only grow as more of her forces failed against the Guardians.

As a result, Eliskni traffic to House Light would rise sharply, as Rasputin would notice, leading the Warmind to believe that many Eliskni have come to think that following Eramis is no longer beneficial.

===Strange Situations=== | |||
Following the destruction of the Warsat Network, Eramis went into hiding along with the majority of her House but still continued to serve The Witness. The Black Fleet and its master would soon arrive near Earth, igniting a large battle between the Vanguard Coalition and Pyramids but were ultimately overwhelmed by The Witness's power, even as the Traveler retaliated with a terraforming beam of Light. Subduing the Traveler and sending its Disciple Calus to locate [[The Veil]] on [[Neptune]], the Guardians led efforts to prevent Calus from claiming the Veil on Neptune and rescuing civilians and pilots who have been taken prisoner by the [[Shadow Legion]] on Earth. The Shipstealer would largely and silently observe as the Guardians worked with Queen Mara, Crow, [[Devrim Kay]], [[Amanda Holliday]] and Mithrax in infiltrating the Pyramid Outposts the Shadow Legion had built and housed the prisoners within, rescuing a great many. | |||
However, after locating the largest and most heavily fortified prison, Eramis contacted Mithrax as the team began their rescue mission, warning him that the prison is different than the others they dealt with. The Light Kell however angrily refused to hear what Eramis had to say, having not forgotten that she still pulled the trigger for the Warsat's to fire despite his pleas. Despite this, Mithrax is aware that Eramis doesn't lie and thus advises his comrades to be cautious. As the Guardians took out the guards and Amanda reached the command center, Mithrax reached the prisoners but discovered that a powerful [[Tormentor]] was leading the prison and summons a powerful force of Taken. Despite the Tormentors power and use of the Taken, the Guardians slays them, allowing Amanda to hotwire the command console to release the prisoners, thereby allowing Mithrax to lead them to safety. Tragically, however, the base began to self-destruct as the group attempted to leave, killing Amanda but at the last second, Eramis entered the scene and saved Mithrax with her Stasis powers. The Shipstealer only gave the Light Kell a stern reminder that she warned him before going her own way, leaving the Light Kell at a loss for words. Since then, Eramis went back into hiding, not being heard from since, Mithrax doubts Eramis had a change a heart regarding her allegiance to The Witness. | |||

However she tends to move around less frequently, tending to stay near the back center of her arena. Instead, she tends to not be the focus of the fight, but to be a support to her subordinates, periodically attempting to hinder the player with her Freezing Bolts, Crystal Wave attacks, and [[Duskfield Grenade]]s, all the while softening the Guardian and preventing regeneration with her shrapnel launcher. | ||
However Eramis can be outsmarted as she tends to fire her Stasis where the Guardian is instead of where they will be. This can be used to outsmart her by jumping and rapidly changing directions. A Warlock's healing rift can protect themselves if they're frozen, a Titan's barricade can negate her attacks, and a Hunter's dodge usually can avoid it outright. Her shrapnel launcher tends to not do enough damage to be a threat due to how far away she tends to be, but it shouldn't be forgotten as it can clean up a kill one of her [[Wretch | However Eramis can be outsmarted as she tends to fire her Stasis where the Guardian is instead of where they will be.

Eramis is also easy to stun, a precision shotgun shell or Stasis super attack to the head can stun her long enough to get some breathing room, but don't overestimate how long she's stunned, as her slam can easily knock the opponent into more danger or off the arena outright to certain doom. | Eramis is also easy to stun, a precision shotgun shell or Stasis super attack to the head can stun her long enough to get some breathing room, but don't overestimate how long she's stunned, as her slam can easily knock the opponent into more danger or off the arena outright to certain doom. | ||
Eramis is fought twice, first at the end of [[The Kell of Darkness]], and again midway through the [[ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE (mission)|ABHORRENT IMPERATIVE]] [[Mission]]. The first time, the player has access to unlimited Stasis powers, while the second time she has to be fought with their normal arsenal. In both cases, the fight will end before Eramis' health reaches zero. | |||
