- — Variks, the Loyal[1]
The House of Rain was a Fallen House distinguishable by their dark purple cloaks and armor. Regarded as the lowest noble House, they were once believed to have been destroyed in the cataclysmic Whirlwind event, but later revealed they had survived and reached Sol.
The House massacred a Human settlement on Mercury and came into conflict with the Vex, the Titan Saint-14, and The Guardian, who had traveled back in time. Years later, Saint-14 led an offensive against the Rain called the Weapons of Rain, which may have been their the demise.
History
During the height of Elksini culture, House Rain members once prophesied that a Fallen warrior, whose enemies would "flee or fall", would one day rise to "heal the Houses and make them whole" and be christened the “Kell of Kells”.[2] The House was destroyed by the Whirlwind that ruined the Fallen civilization.[3]
During the Dark Age, they encountered a human settlement protected by Saint-14 on Mercury, and destroyed the settlement and killed the survivors, but were unable to kill Saint-14 due to The Guardian's actions.
Legacy
Though the House of Rain may have been destroyed in the Whirlwind, their purple banners were adopted by the newly formed House of Dusk.
Unique Forces
Prophecy
- "Before him, foes will flee or fall. But he will heal the houses, make them whole."[4]
- "The Great Machine will marvel, moved by might, and come to crown him Kell of Kells."[5]
- "What Whirlwind whisked away will be rewrought, and every Kell and Ketch will kneel to the Kell of Kells."[6]
- "In a world without Kells, Dreg strength will breed nothing but chaos."
Trivia
- It is mentioned in the third Season of Dawn Narrative Preview, the House of Rain's colors and sigil is the same as the House of Dusk's, meaning that the Dusk's colors were inspired by the House of Rain.[7]
- Variks claimed that the House was lost in the Whirlwind, but they were around in the Dark Age. This means that either: Variks lied about its destruction, they faked their deaths, or they were simply mistaken as destroyed, perhaps after going into hiding.
- Due to the House of Rain being present on Dark Age Mercury, it's possible that the Fallen simulations, seen in the Infinite Forest, may have been former members of the House of Rain, before being captured, and simulated by the Vex.
