Archons are part of the triumvirate leadership of a Fallen House, and serve the [[Prime Servitor]]; working as a go between communicating the wills of each to the other. Archons also act as mechanics for their Primes, and take part in some sort of unclear symbiosis, but are still clearly defined as a servant to their Prime.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Servitor|Servitor]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Aksor, Archon Priest|Aksor, Archon Priest]]''</ref> If an Archon were to fall, that House's Prime Servitor becomes vulnerable to attack.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Riksis_Devil_Archon|Riksis, Devil Archon]]''</ref> They are also responsible for overseeing a Fallen ritual know as the [[Archon's Forge]], an ancient rite of passage for Fallen seeking to improve their station.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Rise_of_Iron#Archon's_Forge|Archon's Forge]]''</ref>  

Houses seem to have several high station mechanics called "Rising Archons" ready to assume the role should there be a need to. They themselves appear to be skilled mechanics, eager to prove their worth.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#S.A.B.E.R.-2|S.A.B.E.R-2]]''</ref> How new Archons are selected is unclear, but during the course of the [[Reef Wars]] the [[House of Wolves]] had no less than two different Archons during the course of the war.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Aksor, Archon Priest|Aksor, Archon Priest]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description, [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/hunt-the-archon?highlight=Keldar Hunt the Archon]''</ref>

Other duties of Archons are unclear, but they do seem to have a role in the ritualistic docking that Fallen [[Dreg]]s are subject to.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_&_Mysteries#Mystery: Fate of Skolas|Mystery: Fate of Skolas]]''</ref> Prime Servitors also play some role in Fallen Star Flight, and it may be the Archon's role in conveying the wishes of the Kell to the Prime on the course.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Servitor|Servitor]]''</ref> In the absence of a Kell, an Archon becomes a notable commander by acting out the wishes of its Prime Servitor and can restore order among the House by caretaking or rebuilding the House Prime. [[Riksis, Devil Archon]] helped [[Sepiks Prime]] rule the [[House of Devils]] after the death of their Kell over one hundred years ago.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_&_Mysteries#Legend:_Saint-14|Legend: Saint-14]]''</ref> But it is possible that an Archon can take leadership if both Prime and Kell are gone, as [[Aksis, Archon Prime]], also used his new authority as Archon to take control of the House of Devils, and lead the Devil Splicers, due to the death of Sepiks and Riksis.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Sepiks Perfected]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Devil_Splicers|Devil Splicers]]''</ref>As well as [[Fikrul]], when he led the [[Scorn]] after the deaths of [[Uldren]] and the Scorned Barons.
