'''Zulmak, Instrument of Torment''' is a very powerful [[Hive]] [[Knight]] and a former champion of the [[Hidden Swarm]], having been reanimated by the surviving Daughters of [[Crota, Son of Oryx]] to serve as a puppet warrior for the Hive and a pawn for their schemes.  He is encountered as the final boss of [[Pit of Heresy]] dungeon within the [[Cradle of Damnation]], accompanied by several Hive, many of his great lieutenants, under the rally of Zulmak.

{{Quote|Their grandfather would not approve—cunning and deception were the path of another—but the Daughters were alone, and the Swarm was flailing. It was Kinox who urged her sisters to act. It was Hashladûn who offered the primordial essence of terror as their guide. And it was Besurith and Voshyr who gathered the husk of a shattered champion—a ravager to stand against all who would oppose their rule. A new breed of destroyer.|Lore text from [[Heretic]]}}

With the deaths of [[Hashladûn, Daughter of Crota|Hashladûn]] and [[Besurith, Daughter of Crota|Besurith]] at the hands of the [[Guardians]], the remaining daughters, [[Kinox]] and [[Voshyr]], went into hiding in the Pit beneath the [[Scarlet Keep]]. Out of desperation, the Hive began [[Altars of Sorrow|sacrificing]] [[Nightmare]]s to harvest their phantasmal [[Darkness]] into a crystal for a [[necromancy|necromantic]] revival of Zulmak, bringing the former champion back as an undead weapon empowered with the Darkness of the  Nightmares to face the Guardians. Their actions created seismic activity however, that drew the [[Guardians]]' attention into the Pit, where they confronted the undead Zulmak. Though he was met with death a second time, Kinox and Voshyr would remain to continuously revive the fallen Zulmak in their rejection of the [[Sword Logic]].
