House of Winds

"Winds unbound. Drift wherever they want with freedom. This is why we are named House Winds."

— Zephyr

The House of Winds are a nomadic Fallen House, identified by their white armor and mint-green cloaks. Unlike most Houses, they are non-hostile towards the Last City and are relatively neutral. They currently occupy the Mumbai Push on Earth.

History

Origins

"House Winds? Heh...now that’s one I haven’t heard since the golden days back home. I thought they were all destroyed. Just what have they been up to this whole time....?"

— Iriksi, Monsoon Baroness

The House of Winds had existed ever since the Eliksni Golden Age on their homeworld of Riis. They first formed after the end of the Edge Wars, and for a long time were always one of the smaller, less noteworthy Houses. They were described to be firm believers in following your own path and making your own destiny, and were one of the few Houses that didn’t worship the Great Machine.

During the Whirlwind, their Kell Methis was slain, along with thousands of other members of the House of Winds. The devastation they suffered was so great that they were presumed to be wiped out completely, and gradually faded to legends and myth.

However, they were not all destroyed, and instead migrated to the solar system along with all of the other surviving Eliksni. Methis would be succeeded by a new Kell: Koliks, the Tempest.

Reign of Koliks

During the Dark Age, the House of Wind settled on Earth to loot and plunder from the remains of humanity’s Golden Age. They conducted numerous raids on settlements all across the globe. Koliks ruled the House with an iron fist, doing everything he could to ensure the survival of his people, including attacking and stealing from other Houses such as the Devils and Kings. Despite their small presence and numbers compared to other Houses they were still quite a menace to face.

The House of Winds would later launch an assault on a particularly large settlement being presided over by the Lightbearer Amaru, who was then a Warlord. Powerless to stand against him, the Fallen would crumble before Amaru’s Light and be forced to retreat. The House of Winds would continue to terrorize his settlement however alone with several others nearby, causing Amaru to take it upon himself to personally track down their Kell Koliks to his lair and slay him after a lengthy battle before destroying their Prime Servitor Roxius Prime as well.
