Elected as military commander and chief science officer, Praksis was christened the Technocrat. Unlike the [[Splicers]] who specialised in cybernetics and bio-engineering, Praksis pioneered as an inventor who most notably created the gauntlets to allow his House to harness the power of Stasis through the use of [[Splinter of Darkness|Splinters]]. His technology helped shift the balance of power to Eramis’s favour who was able gain more authority by selecting who she gifted the new powers to. Stasis became a political recruitment campaign to enlist other Eliksni to join their movement. Praksis also guarded his secrets close and did not allow other council members such as the traitorous Variks to grasp an understanding of how his inventions worked. Variks was also unaware of their discovery of the [[Deep Stone Crypt]]. Praksis had an early involvement with the secret facility and attempted to learn its secrets and was able to foresee problems associated with Eliksni [[Exo]] conversions.

Following the betrayal of Variks, the Technocrat halted his experiments and attended a ceremony organised by Eramis to address their newly formed House. Held within the main chambers of [[Riis-Reborn Approach]], Praksis stood alongside other Devil-born council members and listened attentively to Eramis. She spoke out against the chains that slaved the Eliksni race as they became servants to the [[Great Machine]] that abandoned them. Eramis then destroyed a [[Servitor]] in a symbolic move to usher in their freedom. Its destruction signified that the Eliksni had now updated their approach. Praksis also watched the veteran warrior, Phylaks, wield the ability Stasis by retrieving a [[Splinter of Darkness|Splinter]] from a [[Crux of Darkness|Crux]] and inserting it into the Stasis gauntlets created by him. However the assembly is interrupted by the [[Guardians]] and Praksis left the scene to allow Phylaks chase them with her new found powers.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], PlayStation 5, [[The New Kell]]''</ref>
