'''Sepiks Prime''' is the [[Prime Servitor]] for the [[House of Devils]] and served by [[Riksis, Devil Archon]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lwK9qbLFlGQ '''YouTube''' - ''TTL Plays! Destiny Alpha: The Devil's Lair'']</ref>

In the [[Rise of Iron]] expansion, Sepiks returns as '''Sepiks Perfected''' enhanced by [[SIVA]] technology by the [[Devil Splicers]]. It serves as the main boss of remastered version of the Devils Lair strike.

===Early History===

Following the death of the [[Solkis, Devil Kell]], the [[House of Devils]] established a stronghold within the Cosmodrome of Russia. Absent of their Kell and political leader, the Devils Prime Servitor, Sepiks, gained prominence within the House and ruled the Devils alongside [[Riksis, Devil Archon]], who served it as a caretaker and arbiter of its will.<ref name="Riksis">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Riksis, Devil Archon|Riksis, Devil Archon]]''</ref> The lack of political leadership allowed [[Craask, Kell of Kings]] to exert his influence among the techno-worshiping leadership of the Devils and rule them from the shadows.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Paskin.2C_King_Baron|Paskin, King Baron]]''</ref>

At some point, Sepiks authority was challenged when the [[Devil Splicers]], a group of scientists, splintered away from their House as they sought freedom from subsistence on [[Ether]] and evolution by augmenting themselves with technology.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Devil_Splicers|Devil Splicers]]''</ref> Among them was the former disgraced [[Archon Priest]], [[Aksis]] who led the Splicers.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/9/20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Aksis,_Archon_Prime|Aksis, Archon Prime]]''</ref>

The majority of the Devils took residence near a colony ship, named [[Devil's Spire]], and established [[The Devils' Lair]] as a mecca for the zealous worshipers to offer tribute to their machine god in the form of skulls from dead [[Guardians]].<ref name="Riksis"/> Like many other [[Servitor]]s, Sepiks Prime was born in the image of the [[Traveler]] and the Devils went to great lengths to protect their main source of life sustaining [[Ether]].<ref name="Grimoire">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, Grimoire: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Sepiks Prime|Sepiks Prime]]''</ref><ref>'''Gameinformer (2018/7/5)''', [https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/07/05/these-are-the-eight-barons-who-helped-kill-cayde-6-in-destiny-2-forsaken The Eight Barons who killed Cayde-6]</ref> The Prime Servitor also spawned its own line of Sepiks High Servitors, most notably [[Sepiks-23]].

For years the whereabouts of Sepiks remained elusive, but rumours hinted towards the [[Cosmodrome]]. The Devils dominance was uncontested for centuries until a newly risen [[Guardian]] challenged them and slew their Archon, Riksis. This celebrated as the first major victory for the [[Last City]] against the Devils since [[Battle of Twilight Gap]] and the Devils became vulnerable and heightened their security for Sepiks.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], Activision Blizzard, [[Restoration]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire:Activities/Story: Earth, Old Russia#Restoration|Grimoire Restoration]]''</ref> They recruited Fallen nobility such as [[Naksis, Devil Baron]] and a [[Noble Devil Walker]] to deter anyone from attacking Sepiks.  

The Vanguard Commander [[Zavala]] located the High Servitor position underneath a old colony ship and coordinated a [[Strike]] against Sepiks.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], Activision Blizzard, [[The Devils' Lair (strike)#Transcript|Devil's Lair Strike]]''</ref> Upon arrival the Guardians enter a crossfire between the Ascendent [[Hive]] and Noble and Reaver ranking Devils. They disable the Devils security mesh layers, dispose their [[Baron]] and [[Walker]] and reach the Devil's Lair.

The nearby Devils generate a immunity shield to protect Sepiks, only to be dismantled the Guardians. Sepiks enters into battle and continuously blasts them with its Servitor Eye. The Prime Servitor summons more noble reinforcements to fend off the Guardians and teleports around the Lair. Despite its tactical abilities, Sepiks is destroyed by the Guardians and cripples the Devils leadership and ends the biggest immediate threat to the Last City.

In the aftermath, the Guardians sought to acquire a stealth drive hidden in the Devil's Spire and found the destroyed haul of Sepiks still in the Lair.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-sepiks-prime?highlight=Sepiks Sepiks Ghost Scan]''</ref> The Devils also previously tried to replace Riksis with a Rising Archon named, [[Karrhis, Archon Rising|Karrhis]] in hopes of reviving Sepiks, but is also slew.

Sepiks Prime is at first invulnerable but immobile; it will drop its shield and start attacking once all Fallen in the area have been killed. It then attacks in a manner similar to a normal [[Servitor]], firing Void Blasts periodically while teleporting to fixed positions around the area. It may prove to be a hard-to-reach target when at high elevations. If a [[Guardian]] is in close enough proximity, Sepiks will continuously wield a deadly health-draining ability called "Servitor Attack" until the Guardian is dead or moves out of range. Sepiks Prime's weak spot is its eye.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref> Killing Sepiks is a [[Vanguard]] [[bounty]].<ref name = "Companion">[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QJsIY7RrVuY '''Youtube''': ''Destiny Companion App Walkthrough'']</ref>

Sepiks Perfected makes its last stand at [[The Devils' Lair (strike)|The Devils' Lair]] [[Strike]]. It will have all the aforementioned abilities and will behave like [[Sepiks Prime|its predecessor]], but this time around, it has new capabilities. For one, it plants down [[SIVA Node]]s for area denial, some of which cannot be destroyed; if near one of these, you will be inflicted with the "SIVA Swarm" debuff. It will also be significantly more durable than before purely in terms of health count. However, the main mechanic is an elemental shield that can only be taken down using heavy artillery cannons dropped by certain [[Splicer Captain]]s: [[Shock Captain]]s for [[Arc]], [[Splicer Scorch Captain]]s for [[Solar]], and [[Null Captain]]s for [[Void]], in that particular order. It will bring up these shields one after another when the previous one goes down. Beware that each cannon only has one round that can be fired. Once all three shields are brought down, it will become permanently vulnerable, allowing Guardians to unleash all their attacks on it, finally laying waste to Sepiks Perfected for good.

*During the mission [[Cayde's Stash]], Sepiks' chassis is still within [[The Devils' Lair]] and is a scannable object.

**Despite being blown into pieces when first destroyed by Guardians in the Devil's Lair, Sepiks Prime in the mission is still intact.

*Sepiks Prime is resurrected by the [[Devil Splicers]] in ''[[Rise of Iron]]'' as [[Sepiks Perfected]], augmented by [[SIVA]], a technovirus with terrifying capabilities.

**This makes Sepiks the third Servitor to be Reborn and the second to not bear the title of "Reborn," the second and first respectively is [[Orbiks Prime]] while the first Reborn Servitor overall is [[Kaliks Reborn]].

*Sepiks Prime is the first [[Prime Servitor]] to be featured in the [[Destiny]] franchise.

*During the battle against Sepiks Perfected when he puts up his shield, two Cannon [[Splicer Captain]]s one is the default Splicer Captain and the other one is the normal Captain model but with Splicer colors.

**Strangely, when you kill the Captain, their model switches to the Splicer Captain model.

*Sepiks is one of four bosses with more than one encounter at the end of the [[Strike]] , the others being the [[Phogoth]], [[Taniks]], and [[Sekrion, Nexus Mind]].

**This could be due to the transformation it had with [[SIVA]].
