As a simple [[Dreg]] of the [[House of Exile]], Hiraks was weak and timid. He eventually found himself falling into the [[Hellmouth]] on Earth's [[Moon]]. He emerged a changed Eliksni. He became obsessed with the study of the Hive and hasn't spoken a comprehensible word since his aforementioned time in the [[Hellmouth]]. Some say he learnt his ways from [[The World's Grave]] or from the shrines or even through a form of unutterable language. Only Hiraks truly knows. Years later, Hiraks found the means to become Ascendant and form his own throne world within the [[Ascendant Realm]]. He also gained a reputation for his ability to unravel his enemies' minds and take command over the Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - | As a simple [[Dreg]] of the [[House of Exile]], Hiraks was weak and timid.

As the mastermind of the Great Crow Heist, Hiraks trapped and converted Prince Uldren's [[Crow (title)|Crows]] with his mindbending might, using them to help engineer mistrust between the Reef and Earth. Building tension upon the already turbulent relationship the Reef and Earth shared. He was also responsible for experiments on Asteroid 128 Nemesis which resulted in the asteroid shifting between our dimension and the Ascendant realm.<ref name=GIBarons /> | As the mastermind of the Great Crow Heist, Hiraks trapped and converted Prince Uldren's [[Crow (title)|Crows]] with his mindbending might, using them to help engineer mistrust between the Reef and Earth.
