- "Dude's been dead and not more times than I can track. "Died" twice by my hand alone. Second time I even looked to deliver some insurance, but he was hauled off by his goons."
- — Cayde-6
Taniks' Crew are an unaffiliated gang of Fallen, loyal to the mercenary Taniks, the Scarred.
History
Goons of the Bogeyman
Early mention of the Crew is told by Cayde-6 as he retells his encounters of Taniks, who sought to claim a large bounty placed on Cayde's group of Hunters by ambushing them.[1] Later, Taniks grew in notoriety with the Last City and fought against its greatest of heroes.
Cayde first succeeded in killing Taniks, but it is later discovered that Taniks was not dead at all. He was killed again by Cayde, however Taniks' body was hauled off by his "goons".[2]
Later, they rebuilt Taniks and he took part in the Battle of Twilight Gap.[3]
Winter Prison Break
Taniks and his crew were paid by Draksis, Winter Kell to free Aksor, Archon Priest from the Prison of Elders.[4] While they succeeded in freeing the Archon by working alongside the House of Winter. However, Aksor was targeted by the Vanguard who coordinated a Strike to bring him down.
The Wolf Pack
The House of Wolves hired Taniks and his Crew to join their Wolf Pack. They ventured into the Hellmouth to steal from the Hive. However, during The Shadow Thief strike, a group of Guardians put their plans to a stop by defeating Taniks.
Taken Incursion
The Crew suffered major losses during the Taken War in the Lost to Light Heroic mission, leading to the demise of Driviks, the Chosen.
Devil Splicer Alliance
Taniks' Crew allied with the Devil Splicers to resurrect their leader through SIVA augmentation, bringing him back as Taniks Perfected. The crew then went on to capture local Hive for experimentation and sought to reclaim lost their territory, but the Vanguard deployed a fireteam that stopped the operation, and Taniks was killed once again.[5]
Legacy
Three years after the supposed final death of Taniks, what became of Tanik's Crew remains a mystery. Those who survived could have joined the House of Dusk, while those who fought on to keep control of their Ketch, Kaliks-Syn, reappared as Nightmares. Alternatively, their disappearance and the crash of their ship could have been due to the Hive. The only remaining vestige of their existence is a ruined Walker that still lies where it was felled a long time ago.
