Cra'adug is a Taken Knight that appears as a boss in the Court of Oryx alongside their comrade Mengoor. The Knights possess an invincible shield that is only nullified when they are near each other.
Biography[edit]
The Books of Sorrow briefly describe them as being partially responsible for the extermination of the Taishibethi species, standing upon the Raven Bridge and killing Taishibethi for a decade.[1] They also participated in the Hive's war against the Harmony and, while they succeeded in taking down the Gift Mast, they were punished for tithing their kills to one another instead of Oryx. Cra'dug was Taken by the God King of the Hive, their shape reformed and gifted with fire. Mengoor was then tasked with directing both their comrade and their own blade in accordance to the wishes of the Taken King.[2]
When the Taken King brought the Dreadnaught into the Sol System, Mengoor and Cra'adug would be summoned into the Court of Oryx and defeated by Guardians looking to extinguish Oryx's power.[3]
Gameplay[edit]
Mengoor and Cra'adug appear together in the Court of Oryx Public Event when summoned with a Tier 1 offering, or with another member of the Court in Tier 2. Cra'adug prefers to stand away from battle, only rarely punching a foe, and instead pelts them with Boomer shots and fiery breath. The two summon Taken Phalanxes to force foes away from themselves. To make the dyad Knights vulnerable, players have to trick them into staying close to each other, which will make them lose their shields. Once one of the Knights is dead, the other will remain vulnerable until slain.
Trivia[edit]
- Cra'adug wields a regular Hive Boomer instead of a corrupted Taken one, or the Shredder they instead wield in their Grimoire card.
