There is evidence of Fallen giving themselves to technology... The mercenary Taniks is one example—more machine than Fallen now, an abomination in the eyes of traditional Fallen belief.

Taniks, the Scorned (formerly Taniks, the Scarred) is an infamous Fallen mercenary unaffiliated with any House, loyal only to those who pay him. He gained notoriety within the Last City for murdering Guardians, including the Hunter Vanguard Andal Brask, and became infamous for cheating death on numerous occasions, due in part to his cyborg physiology.

Taniks has been fought and defeated by the Guardian no less than three times during present day. He was first seen working with the House of Wolves during the Wolf Rebellion before being killed by a Guardian Strike team, only to be resurrected using SIVA as Taniks Perfected by the Devil Splicers during the SIVA Crisis. After being defeated a second time, his body was retrieved and rebuilt by the House of Salvation inside the Deep Stone Crypt on Europa, where he was revived as Taniks, Reborn and set loose by Atraks-1. He followed the Guardians aboard the Morning Star space station orbiting Europa, and survived its subsequent crash into the surface by grafting his torso onto a Heavy Shank and becoming Taniks, the Abomination.

After his presumed final death at the Crypt, he would be resurrected as a Scorn by Kuldax and be infused with the powers of Stasis, serving as the Disciple's Scorn general.
