They are identified by their dark red armor and red-orange cloaks.

They also desired to destroy the [[Guardian]]s, along with any other faction that greatly crippled the Fallen. | ||

He and his crew relocated to the ruins of London, establishing territory there and building the foundation for what would become a new Fallen House, one unburdened by the repeated failures of the old. Dreviks’ crew remained in hiding while scouting for and salvaging anything they found that could prove of use to them. Dreviks sought to build their numbers, and after the end of the [[SIVA Crisis]], began broadcasting a transmission on almost all Eliksni channels to rally the crippled Fallen under him. As a result the numbers of his crew would multiply as deserters of the [[House of Devils]] and [[House of Kings|Kings]] joined his ranks. | ||
Dreviks then declared that his band would be a new House, known as the House of Dragons, with the goal to forcefully retake the Great Machine. | Dreviks then declared that his band would be a new House, known as the House of Dragons, with the goal to forcefully retake the Great Machine. | ||

Through the House of Ash’s activities, the Dragons were able to continue their efforts of salvaging while they plotted and built their armies. In exchange the House of Dragons would supply Ash with the necessary weapons and [[Ether]] to continue operating efficiently. They had also performed operations to steal weapons and technology from the [[Cabal]] and [[Vex]]. | ||

Some time after the death of Dreviks, the House of Dragons came under attack by the [[Forum:Shadowkeepers (Paradox)|Shadowkeepers]]. Upon hearing that their leaders Kirito and Asuna killed [[Zavala]] and brought the [[Darkness]] upon the entire [[Solar System]], most of the members pledged their loyalties to them for survival; while the fates of those loyal to their deceased Kell were unknown, it is certain that Karviks and his crew were the only survivors as they escaped this brutal onslaught despite being wounded and ended up on the Chinese Dead Zone within the [[Unknown Space]]. The remnants of the House of Dragons have recently begun trying to establish a proper foothold there, with the Archon seeking to reform the House from the ground-up as its new Kell. | |||
===Fractured Worlds=== | |||
{{Quote|Contact the City. Let them know it’s time we help protect them instead of conquering them.|Karviks, Dragon Archon}} | |||
During the [[Forum:Battle of Verses|Battle of Verses]], the House of Dragons were one of the first to strike back against the forces invading from beyond the rift. They engaged Scavengers all across the system, and did their best to fight back against the Drovalis despite sustaining many casualties. Later on, they would come to the aid of the Last City, defending it from an onslaught of Scavengers led by [[Forum:Sinturoth, City-Breaker|Sinturoth, City-Breaker]] and assisted in the destruction of the [[Forum:The Mayhem Machine|Mayhem Machine]] that was used in said attack. | |||
====Wrath of the Imperium==== | |||
Sometime later on, the House of Dragons would be attacked by the Gornix Imperium, a xenophobic alien faction from beyond the rift, who used their dimensional travel technology to enter and invade the Unknown Space en masse. They fell into brutal skirmishes with the Fallen House as they encroached upon the Chinese Dead Zone, with a majority of the Dragons either being killed or captured. The Guardians and Iriksi Syndicate would quickly come to the aid of the Gornix, and with their combined efforts managed to push them back, but by then the damage was done as the Imperium had abducted many Dragons, including several of their Servitors. | |||
The Guardian would later work with Karviks to infiltrate the Gornix vessel on the other side of the rift where the captive Eliksni were being held, and organize a mass prison break to free them. As they made their escape, they were confronted by a Gornix war machine, the [[Forum:Reaper Lotus|Reaper Lotus]], and managed to destroy it after a hectic battle. The House of Dragons would reclaim the members that had been stolen from them and the Gornix repelled from Unknown Space. | |||

The structure of the House of Dragons remain true to traditional Fallen organization, with a single [[Kell]]. However, they have multiple [[Prime Servitor]]s in case one were to be destroyed, and each Prime is tended to by an [[Archon]]. The Dragons also use House Enforcers to ensure that troops remain loyal to the house through force, especially when the | The structure of the House of Dragons remain true to traditional Fallen organization, with a single [[Kell]]. However, they have multiple [[Prime Servitor]]s in case one were to be destroyed, and each Prime is tended to by an [[Archon]]. The Dragons also use House Enforcers to ensure that troops remain loyal to the house through force, especially when the Kell’s power begins to weaken. House Enforcers rank higher than Barons but lower than Archons. [[Wretch]]es are considered by the Dragons to be of even lower rank than [[Dreg]]s and are treated as such, as Dregs also serve as scouts and manual laborers within their house, and are given the liberty of riding [[Pike]]s, while Wretches are only meant to be sent into battle and die as worthless canon fodder. | ||
The Dragons also have another additional rank, such as Machinists, who oversee all of their technology as well as their production and usage of SIVA, and are equal in rank to Archons. Similarly to the Wolves, the Dragons also have certain elite groups or posts with special functions, who are also given a certain amount of autonomy, such as the [[Forum: | The Dragons also have another additional rank, such as Machinists, who oversee all of their technology as well as their production and usage of SIVA, and are equal in rank to Archons. Similarly to the Wolves, the Dragons also have certain elite groups or posts with special functions, who are also given a certain amount of autonomy, such as the [[Forum:Serpent’s Fang|Serpent’s Fang]], a special group of highly-trained assassins that answer directly to Dreviks himself, usually meant to take out high priority targets. Another good example of elite groups in service of the house would be the [[Forum:Searing Claw|Searing Claws]], who serve as bodyguards of some of the Dragons’ more high-ranking and important members. | ||
In addition, they also employ specialized squads or forces that are given specific tasks, although this is not the same as the elite groups within the House mentioned above. Such tasks would include raiding enemy fortifications, scavenging crews to explore ruins and plunder whatever they can, Pike-riding gangs to harass enemy forces, teams led to jam enemy signals or intercept enemy transports, and so on. | In addition, they also employ specialized squads or forces that are given specific tasks, although this is not the same as the elite groups within the House mentioned above.

The same holds true for SIVA, which is not seen by the Dragons as a means of apotheosis, but simply to make them more powerful. A large part of the House of Dragons is also focused on Ether production in general, partly to sustain the Dragons themselves, but mostly to keep the subordinate House of Ash in line. They also have several Barons and Rising Archons dedicated to controlling the House of Ash, either directly or through some sort of proxy. | ||
The House of Dragons also focus on experimenting with their technologies to develop new forms of weapons, vehicles, devices and automata never before seen in any other House. | The House of Dragons also focus on experimenting with their technologies to develop new forms of weapons, vehicles, devices and automata never before seen in any other House. | ||
