'''Kalliks, Baron of House Dusk''' is a [[Fallen]] [[Captain]] and [[Baron]] of the [[House of Dusk]]. He is encountered in [[Battleground: Delve]] where he led his forces into the depths of Nessus in search for the [[Echo (object)|Echo]] that had crashed into the planet's core 

==Biography==
When an Echo exited the Pale Heart and crashed down into Nessus, Kalliks and his crew aboard his Ketch would look down at the planet. The Baron would recognize that there was something in the core of Nessus due to both the planet and Vex's response. Turning to the consul beside him, Kalliks would hear the older Eliksni speak of the "[[The Traveler|Great Machine]]" in disgust and how something has erupted from it. Furthermore they had intercepted the [[Vanguard]] comms that referred to the object as an anomaly. Looking at his console's screen, Kalliks would discover that [[Failsafe]] had been sending [[Guardian]]s into Vex territory to uncover information. Desiring to retrieve the Echo for themselves, Kalliks would order his forces to ready the cages and to arm the mines. When the Vandal at his side asked him what his plan was, Kalliks would proclaim they would capture the Vex to receive the information they desire in order to retrieve the Echo for themselves.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Echoes]], [[Weapon|Weapon Lore]]: [[Aberrant Action]]''</ref>

Penetrating the [[Well of Flame]], Kalliks and his forces would capture the Vex units within to extract the intel they possess. However Kalliks and his crew would be confronted by a fireteam of Guardians outside of the well. Engaging with the Guardian forces, Kalliks would choose to retreat into the Well. After deactivating the barrier blocking the entrance, the Guardians confront Kalliks within a room with imprisoned Vex. To halt the Guardians efforts, Kalliks releases the Vex before transmatting away from the battle. Within a cavern containing imprisoned Vex, Kalliks is ambushed by the fireteam, causing the Baron to retreat once more. Eventually the Guardians arrive at a large cavern where Kalliks and his crew had were containing a [[Hypolydron, Captive Mind|Vex Mind]]. Despite his strength and uncountable reinforcements, Kalliks is defeated by the fireteam who go on to destroy the Vex Mind shortly after.

==Gameplay==
Kalliks is first encountered at the stairs leading to the Well of Flame alongside his forces, including [[Resilient Captain]]s. Upon losing half of his health, Kalliks will retreat further up the stairway where he will fire at the Guardians from above. After losing around one third of his health, Kalliks will teleport away. To lower the barrier leading into the well, the Guardians must defeat receive nine pieces of Fallen data by skay8ng [[Data Safeguard]]s, which can be spawned by killing swarms of Fallen. The first and second set of Data Safeguards will consist of a Servitor and two Tracer Shanks. While the third set will consist of two Heavy Shanks and a [[Data Safeguard Servitor]]. Eliminating them will lower the barrier and allow the Guardian to delve in the well.

Within the well, Kalliks will be confronted by the Guardians once more before teleporting away shortly after and releasing Vex forces. The fireteam must defeat the Vex to open the trapdoor leading into a Vex portal. Upon entering, the Guardians will engage with Kalliks who will teleport away shortly after being confronted and will leave behind a [[Unrelenting Servitor]]. Finally, the Guardians will confront Kalliks within a large Vex cavern, where he stands above the cage containing [[Hypolydron, Captive Mind]]. When Kalliks loses a small portion of its health, it will gain an Immunity Shield and summon forth three [[Siphon Servitor]]s. To dispel Kalliks's shield, the fireteam must destroy the Siphon Servitors. Kalliks will then teleport off the cage while Vex units begin to appear around the cavern. Once Kalliks is slain, the Fallen barrier containing Hypolydron will be lowered, allowing the Guardians to slay the Hydra and complete the activity.
