The Scorn are a rogue faction of Fallen terrorists led by Uldren Sov and Fikrul, the Fanatic. They recently orchestrated a massive breakout from the Prison of Elders and murdered Cayde-6 in the process. While they were originally Fallen, they have been changed into something else by repeated deaths and resurrections.[1][2] They are former members of the House of Exile who were cast out of the House at some point prior to the Red War.

Overview

The Scorn are a horde of warped, mutated Fallen, changed by repeated deaths and resurrections through unknown means. They vary drastically in size and form, with Mongrels in particular nearly being the size of a Hive Ogre.[1][2]

Appearance

The Scorn can be distinguished by their dark gunmetal colored, chain-adorned armor, and drastic physical differences from other Fallen. Many of them are unnaturally large in stature, wielding an array of weapons stolen from other factions, often seeming to favor the use of fire-based weaponry.[1]

Structure

The Scorn are not affiliated with any House. They are led overall by Uldren Sov and help pursue his goals. Beneath Uldren are seven unique Barons, led by their Archon, Fikrul, the Fanatic, each with their own skills and specialties. Some Scorn pirates make use of non-Fallen technologies, and many of them have docked lower arms as a remnant of their previous status as Dregs.[2]

History

Terror of the Reef

Cast out of the House of Exile, many Dregs grouped together and thrived through mutual ruthlessness and ingenuity. Raiding Fallen settlements and stealing Ether, the Barons grew stronger and bolder. Capitalising on the lack of leadership in the post-Taken War Reef, the Scorn terrorized both Fallen and Awoken settlements, degrading the once prosperous civilization into a lawless frontier.

Sometime after the Red War, Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6 gathered a small group of his most trusted Guardians and, with the assistance of acting-Regent-Commander Petra Venj, hunted down the Scorned Barons. At a final standoff, the Barons were defeated and those not killed were thrown deep within the Prison of Elders. Only one at the scene, their Archon, Fikrul, the Fanatic, managed to escape.[3]

Prison Break

A year after the Red War, the Scorn took advantage of the Reef's disheveled state and broke out en-masse from the Prison of Elders. During the breakout, the Scorn Barons and Uldren Sov killed Cayde-6. After the escape, they fled into the Tangled Shore and Dreaming City, behind the leadership of Prince Uldren and their seven commanding Barons and Archon. [1]

After their release, they entered into a civil war with the House of Dusk. They have also invaded the Spider's territory in the Tangled Shore, and he has enlisted Guardians to assist his men in clearing them out.
