'''Yaviks, the Rider''' is a [[Baron]] of the [[Scorn]] and leader of a personal gang of [[Pike]] riders.
'''Yaviks, the Rider'''<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken (expansion)|Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore entry]]'', [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/the-ragged-valley-sprint The Ragged Valley Sprint]</ref> is a [[Scorn]] [[Baron]] who leads a personal gang of [[Pike]] riders.  


==Biography==
==Biography==
Yaviks is a talented Rider, well known for being the first to complete the nearly impossible run through the Ragged Valley, a chaotic space of multiple asteroids strung together. For this, she was highly praised by her fellow Barons and even by [[Marcus Ren]], who only succeeded after five tries.<ref name="RV">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]] - [[Lore:The Lawless Frontier|The Lawless Frontier]]: [[Lore:The Lawless Frontier#The Ragged Valley Sprint|The Ragged Valley Sprint]]''</ref>
Yaviks is a very talented Rider, though many would want to discredit her because of her infamous actions, though she is known for making the nigh-impossible run through the [[Ragged-Valley]], though not a literal valley in the traditional or poetic sense, it is a chaotic space of which multiple asteroids strung together, ever shifting and flowing that no one has mad it through, however, Yaviks managed to do it, though the reason for it is based on speculation, from running Ether, killing a Guardian and running from it's fireteam, or a challenge from a [[Fallen]] [[Captain]] or [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]] himself, for their relationship was "Complicated", regardless, with a fresh pike and at full throttle, she made it through, given credit by fellow Barons and even legendary Sparrow Racing Champion [[Marcus Ren]] after 5 tries and only the last successful run.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/the-ragged-valley-sprint?highlight=yaviks The Ragged Valley]</ref> Riding atop a heavily upgraded [[Heavy Pike]], Yaviks seeks to replace the hierarchy of the [[Fallen]] with anarchy throughout [[the Reef]] along with deadly toxics. She is responsible for the destruction of eight [[Awoken]] outposts, six [[Techeun]] temples, and hundreds of Awoken lives. However her days of riding was cut short when Cayde arrived and caught her after beating her in a race.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/adventure-target-the-rider?highlight=yaviks Adventure: Target: The Rider]</ref> Locked deep within the [[Prison of Elders]], she was freed around a year after the events of the [[Red War]] by [[Uldren Sov]], and was present as he executed [[Cayde-6]].<ref name="GIBarons"/> She is an [[Enforcer]]-class [[Baron]].
 
Her reasons for making the run are unknown, but the legend grew with each telling of the story. Stories such as running away with Ether, making off with Golden Age technology to fleeing from a vengeful fireteam. Others include her being challenged by a [[Kell]] or [[Archon]] as a test of skill or because her relationship with [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fikrul]] was complicated.<ref name="RV"/>
 
Riding atop an upgraded [[Heavy Pike]], Yaviks sought to replace the hierarchy of the [[Fallen]] by spreading anarchy across [[the Reef]]. Through her various cruises, she released deadly toxins along the way. She is also responsible for the destruction of eight [[Awoken]] outposts, six [[Techeun]] temples, and hundreds of Awoken lives.<ref name="GIBarons"/>

Yaviks' [[Pike]] is a more heavily modified version of its standard counterpart. Its nose-mounted turrets now deal [[Void]] damage instead of [[Arc]], and its shots travel in a slightly more winded trajectory in order to better track their targets; it also comes equipped with launchers that periodically fire a barrage of [[Scorn Rocket]]s, which can seriously damage or even destroy a [[Guardian]]-controlled Pike. When boosting, Yaviks' Pike emits a flaming trail which burns everything in its wake, and an energy barrier appears on the front of the vehicle to both protect it from damage as well as knock enemy vehicles around by ramming into them. To deal the most damage and take the least damage in return, it is recommended to flank Yaviks from all possible angles.
