==Trivia==
==Trivia==
*Nixis is the first of the two Taken bosses to replace the usual final boss (in the case of Winter's Run, [[Aksor, Archon Priest]]) at the end of a Taken version of a strike. Other strikes with Taken versions, including [[Dust Palace (strike)|Dust Palace]], [[The Undying Mind (strike)|The Undying Mind]], and [[Cerberus Vae III]], replace most standard enemy encounters with Taken, but retain the same boss. The second boss to do so was [[Sekrion, Subverted Mind]] in [[The Nexus]] redux.

*Nixis's presence indicates the [[House of Winter]] tried to break out a second Archon Priest after both Draksis's and Aksor's deaths, as well as [[Skolas]]'s defeat. This makes them the only recorded House to ever attempt a break in twice, meaning the Prison's security is less than adequate.

*Nixis's House is unknown. However, it can be inferred that they likely were once a [[House of Wolves|Wolf]] noble from their incarceration in the Prison of Elders.
