The exact origins of Kaniks' madness are unknown, but the horrors he witnessed within the Fallen House system may have driven his mind to crack. Some speculate that it was his harsh life within the [[Tangled Shore]] that drove him to insanity or he was always just mad and revelled in spreading destruction and chaos as he scattered vast minefields throughout the [[Reef]].

His madness cost the lives of many [[Awoken]] as he bombed various institutions such as the Origin Libraries to fuel his adrenaline high. His tyranny would end when he was captured alongside his fellow Barons and imprisoned deep within the [[Prison of Elders]].
