Taniks was once born into the [[Fallen]] House system, but quickly despised its traditions after experiencing the humiliating docking from his [[Kell]]. Like many others, he grew cold from the cruelty and became a bannerless renegade who followed the footsteps of [[Sekris]]. As a mercenary, he only served himself and sought the rewards of bounties to live a life free of Kell rule. He is absent of moral code or ethics, however he will place payment above his pride as he once refrained himself from attacking the [[Draksis, Winter Kell|Kell of Winter]] who insulted him. | Taniks was once born into the [[Fallen]] House system, but quickly despised its traditions after experiencing the humiliating docking from his [[Kell]].

Taniks is relentless in his effort to fulfil a contract and will employ any means necessary. He is motivated by challenge and a cunning tactician who once ambushed [[Cayde]]'s crew by surprise. His notable achievements include orchestrating a breakout from the [[Prison of Elders]] and murdering the Hunter Vanguard [[Andal]] in cold blood. Although he sells his services to the highest bidder, Taniks is bloodthirsty and seeks payment in blood and was present in many battles such as the [[Battle of Twilight Gap|Twilight Gap]], the [[Reef Wars]] and the [[Wolf Rebellion]]. He also considers the [[Guardians]] to be trophies to collect rather than enemies and loves the thrill of combat by challenging them in the ways of the old. | Taniks is relentless in his effort to fulfil a contract and will employ any means necessary.

Among the Fallen, Taniks is a survivor who enhanced himself with technologies of the Fallen, [[Vex]], and [[Human]] out of necessity. In the eyes of Fallen traditionalists, Taniks is viewed as an abomination and has gained a reputation of being a undying huntsman. Though a renegade, he is capable of praising his kind and recognises the incredible feats of other esteemed warriors such as [[Pirsis]], [[Peekis]], [[Calzar, Scarred Captain|Calzar]], [[Drekthas, Metal Captain|Drekthas]] and [[Eramis]] and holds them in high regard. He marvelled at the prowess of Eramis and hates the customs that guide the Houses and chooses to be Houseless as he believes the Fallen could conquer entire Solar System if they were to organise itself with the greatest of Fallen generals. | Among the Fallen, Taniks is a survivor who enhanced himself with technologies of the Fallen, [[Vex]], and [[Human]] out of necessity.
