The '''Kell's Scourge''' | The '''Kell's Scourge''' are a crime syndicate of anarchist [[Fallen]] led by [[Siviks, Lost to None]], the deranged brother of the [[Spider]]. They are hellbent on sowing chaos wherever they go and actively sought to use the technology of the [[Black Armory]] to gain power and control. | ||
==History== | ==History== | ||
Before the events of ''[[Forsaken]]'', Siviks previously fell out with his brother over his affable relationship with [[humanity]] and was imprisoned in the [[Prison of Elders]], only to escape during its [[Hunt_for_the_Scorn|mass breakout]] and formed the Kell's Scourge as a rival syndicate against his brother's.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, Transcript:[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/the-new-syndicates-identity The New Syndicate's Identity]''</ref><ref name="Anarchy"/> Siviks and his crew uncovered the lost [[Gofannon Forge]] from the [[Exodus Black]] on [[Nessus]], to which they use to upgrade their weaponry with [[Black Armory]] technology.<ref name="Gofannon">'''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, Transcript: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/scourge-of-the-armory Scourge of the Armory]''</ref> | |||
Forming holdouts all across the [[EDZ]], the Scourge began smuggling their tainted Black Armory contraband to [[House of Dusk]] deserters whilst making a push into the Spider's [[Tangled Shore|territory]] as his competition. When the Fallen-manufactured Black Armory gear made its way to the Guardians, [[Ada-1]] immediately enlists them in recovering said gear as evidence presented to the Spider. Taken notice of his growing competition in the Tangled Shore, the Fallen mob boss had Guardians scavenge the local Fallen for information regarding Siviks' newly-uncovered syndicate and tasks them to put his brother down.<ref> '''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, Transcript: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-the-new-syndicates-identity-the-spiders-competition Spider's Competition]''</ref> | |||

Attempts at tracking Siviks and his tainted Black Armory caches across the European Dead Zone lead to a delivery note yielding the Scourge's [[The Conflux|hideout]] on Nessus. There the Guardians disrupted an exchange between Siviks and [[Telksis the Pillager, Kell's Scourge|Telksis, the Pillager]]. Killing the latter, the Guardians successfully recovered the caches and secured the Gofannon Forge from [[Serekis-9, Kell's Scourge|Serekis-9]].<ref name=Gofannon/> | |||
With sections of it ruined and still recovering from the [[Red War]], the Kell's Scourge had infiltrated their forces into the Botza District of the [[Last City]] and locate the Armory's lost [[Vault Ebisu]], creating their [[Prime Servitor]], [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge|Insurrection Prime]] as a massive war mech from the vault's stolen phase technology after plundering it of its powerful weapons. In retaliation, Ada and the [[Vanguard]] issued a six manned [[raid]] into Scourge territory and secure the vault at all costs. Insurrection Prime was destroyed, but not before the Scourge stole pages from the private log of the Armory's founder [[Henriette Meyrin]]; to which the Guardians would retrieve from the Fallen.<ref> '''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, [[Scourge of the Past]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/7)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/the-black-armory-papers?highlight=Black+armory+pages The Black Armory Pages]''</ref> | |||
[[ | In a final bid to gain an edge over the Guardians and competition, Siviks sought the secrets of [[Obsidian Accelerator|Project Niobe]], an initiative to develop and produce enhanced Black Armory prototypes. Following up on clues to its whereabouts in the stolen pages of Meyrin's journal, Siviks lead the Scourge to take over the restricted [[Niobe Labs]], attaining control over its security protocols and the Bergusia Forge hidden within. Their victory was however short-lived with the arrival of the Guardians thwarting their efforts to secure the forge, causing Siviks to retreat and leaving the Guardians to claim their prize.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/1/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/niobes-torment?highlight=Niobe%27s Niobe's Torment]''</ref> | ||
Siviks was ultimately killed in a final standoff against the [[Guardian]]; who helped Ada-1 to reclaim the Black Armory's last remaining secrets and technology whilst leaving the Kell's Scourge leaderless and utterly crippled.<ref> '''Bungie (2018/1/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-not-a-weapon-lock-and-key Lock and Key]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2018/1/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-the-obsidian-accelerator?highlight=Obsidian+accelerator The Obsidian Accelerator]''</ref> | |||
A few years after their assault on the Last City and Siviks's death, remnants of the Kell's Scourge would pledge their allegiance to [[Eramis, Kell of Darkness]] and her [[House of Salvation]]. Using their technology, the House of Salvation was able to create weaker but mass produced versions of Insurrection Prime called [[Brig]]s, giving them powerful artillery support on the battlefield. Larger variants were also constructed known as Commodores, however they still lacked the Black Armory technology Insurrection wielded.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]]'', ''[[Variks, the Loyal]]: [[Variks, the Loyal#Quotes|Technology taken from the Kell's Scourge.

The Kell's Scourge is similar to the [[House of Spider]] | The Kell's Scourge is similar to that of the [[House of Spider]], with both groups being criminal syndicates that are working for their own interests. However, the Scourge are considerably more advanced with their technology than the average house of Fallen as they developed a new type of [[Brig|war machine]] with their repurposed [[Black Armory]] tech. With only a [[Berserker, Kell's Scourge|handful]] of Fallen fully equipped with Black Armory-enhanced tech, the rank-and-file members are mostly [[House of Dusk]] deserters whom had rallied to their cause. The Syndicate, as observed by their servitors and likely a product of Siviks' cowardice and haste, exhibits patchwork designs with their servitors which is odd considering the Scourge's technological prowess - especially in that of Insurrection Prime. | ||
They are also similar to the [[Devil Splicers]], with both groups having harnessed [[Golden Age]] technology for their own nefarious purposes. | |||
