Keksis, the Betrayed is a Taken Captain that was captured and imprisoned within the Prison of Elders.
Formerly a Captain to the House of Devils, Keksis was Taken but unlike other powerful Taken, Keksis is lost, especially since Oryx's death, and unable to free himself. Now all he can do is fight without purpose.
Gameplay
Like any Taken Captain, Keksis is armed with an Arc Shrapnel Launcher and can both teleport erratically and rapidly hurl Darkness Bolts that blind Guardians. However, in Challenge of the Elders, he will gain the ability to summon explosives that will temporarily suppress a Guardian's abilities if left unchecked. The explosive will be floating around in the middle of the arena, and players must stand in it and channel its Corrupted Light to avoid getting the "Suppressed" debuff.
Trivia
- Keksis is the only Taken in the entire game whose Grimoire card is conveyed in the first person.
- Unlike most Taken, Keksis doesn't have a glowing central eye. His face remains pitch black.
- Keksis is one of the few bosses that doesn't have a slam ability should the player get close.
- The "many voices" mentioned in Keksis' Grimoire card seems to reference Riven taking control of the Taken after Oryx's death. This would be the earliest reference to Riven in the Destiny series.
