Heavy Shanks were first created by the rising [[Archons]] of the [[House of Devils]] from Cosmodrome debris and cannibalised [[Servitor]] parts to infiltrate the vault of the [[Warmind]] [[Rasputin]] during the [[Taken War]].<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[The Taken King]], [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#S.A.B.E.R.-2|S.A.B.E.R.-2]]''</ref>

A year later, amidst the [[SIVA Crisis]], the [[Devil Splicers]] created a variant called [[Voltage Eater]]s to defend [[Vosik, the Archpriest]] in their [[Wrath of the Machine|lair]].<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]], [[Rise of Iron]], [[Wrath of the Machine]]''</ref> By the time of the [[Red War]] the following year, the [[House of Dusk]] began mass-producing Heavy Shanks to provide fire support for scavenger crews. These Heavy Shanks use the same model as [[S.A.B.E.R.-2]], but are armed only with void turrets. Since then, Heavy Shanks have appeared across many Houses and other Fallen syndacates.
