==Biography== | ==Biography== | ||
She is known as the Scourge, the Bandit. Her reign of terror is well known to the Reef people, though not to [[The Last City|City-Dweller]]s, before her position as the second-in-command of the Scorned Barons. She works as the group's expert in munitions and weapon crafting. Elykris has become infamous for her raids on ships and settlements near [[Mars]], as well as for her role in the Siege of Arran, where she hijacked the ship, stole it's contents and it's [[Guardian]] protectors were lost or captured at the Scorn's hands, as well as the in the heists after the Solis Descent, more Guardians dead and the armory stripped of it's cache.<ref name=GIBarons/> even stole [[Cabal]] Telemetry and Gravity Traps to further help sabotage vessels, relieve more cargo and hull the husks off to the shipyard to be turned to scraps.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/roll-call?highlight=Elykris Roll Call]</ref> | |||
She was a lowly Dreg who challenged the traditions of the Fallen Houses, and was cast aside for that, she would find strength in the bond with others like her, an outcast, she would then find meaning in the guidance of [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]].<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/truth-tinkered?highlight=Elykris Truth Tinkered]</ref> | |||
After being captured alongside most of her allies, she was imprisoned deep within the [[Prison of Elders]]. However, a year after the events of the [[Red War]] she was freed by [[Uldren Sov]], and played a role in the murder of [[Cayde-6]] at Sov's hand.<ref name=GIBarons/> She later took up residence in [[Salvage Zone QX]]. Where as the Guardian would come to face her, though she fought in order to give Uldren and Fikrul time to enact their plan. | |||
She can reappear as a boss if a player activates the Heroic version of the Ether Ritual [[Public Event]], where she wields a [[Scorn Mine Launcher]] and is titled "Reanimated Machinist". | |||

Elykris has shown herself to be quite avaricious, as whatever technology and weaponry she doesn't give to the Scorn, she keeps for herself. She seems to share Fikrul's sentiment on the Scorn being a family, or at least a close-knit brotherhood, as her lines about the Barons always standing together and the Scorn standing together forever are similar to some of Fikrul's own dialogue on the Scorn. She also seems to be wrathful, as she venomously calls Cayde-6's death "pathetic" and continuously growls at the Guardian about how their attempt at revenge is futile. | Elykris has shown herself to be quite avaricious, as whatever technology and weaponry she doesn't give to the Scorn, she keeps for herself.

Elykris seemed to initially have a tumultuous relationship with fellow Baron [[Reksis Vahn, the Hangman]] as the latter would frequently sneak into her hoard to destroy her captured [[Servitors]]. | Elykris seemed to initially have a tumultuous relationship with fellow Baron [[Reksis Vahn, the Hangman]] as the latter would frequently sneak into her hoard to destroy her captured [[Servitors]]. | ||

Elykris possesses multiple weapons in her arsenal, all of which have devastating consequences. In hand, she wields a [[Scorn Cannon]], which fires explosive molten [[Ether]] fumes from long range, constantly blasting the player down and pounding away at their shield. She will also occasionally crouch and use her back-mounted munitions device to fire Scorn Rockets one after another, each of which deals high blast damage; every time her health reaches a certain threshold, she will duck down on the ground, surround herself with [[Void]] energy to negate all incoming damage akin to an Ether-Shield, and rapidly fire [[Solar]] orbital strikes from her munitions device before | |||

This means the player has to contend with both direct combat and evasion simultaneously. Additionally, there are poisonous liquid pools littered throughout the arena, which can prove to be a deadly environmental hazard. The arena itself, however, is fairly large, and thus it is easy to space oneself from Elykris in order to safely and reliably damage her. Her movement is rather slow, so the player can continue to stay at an extended range for an easier engagement. | |||
