Biography
Commander Dracus served as a Cabal Legionaire during the Red War under Ghaul and became known as a "butcher" for the numerous count of lightless Guardians he had executed at the behest of the War. In the ensuring aftermath after Ghaul's defeat, Dracus went onwards to create a name for himself and became known amongst the Red Legion's remnants as a warlord. Stationed on Nessus in the aftermath, Dracus hunted the small birds of Nessus along with his comrades for sustenance, taking enjoyment in the birds' challenge and satisfaction in being trapped.
When Caiatl's call radioed across the Sol system, Dracus was one of many to hear her call yet did not regard the Empress as his leader, instead maintaining an utter devotion to the now deceased Dominus even after death. Dracus is shown to have a disgust to the new grunts of the Empire, explaining the Rite of Proving to a Legionary who asked him. When offered challenge by said Legionary, Dracus pondered for a moment the possible prospects in proving himself to Caiatl and shot the Legionary dead mockingly. Dracus would later be deployed to defend the Imperial Land Tank in Watcher's Grave on Nessus against Guardians. He would fall in his own Rite of Proving to the Guardians.[2]
Gameplay
Commander Dracus is a large Legionary whose primary method of attack is a heavily modified Cabal Slug Shotgun. Dracus will fire his Slug shotgun at immense speeds as if the weapon were automatic, summoning waves of Cabal. At every third of his health depleted, Dracus will call upon and summon a Shieldbearer Centurion as his champion to shield him. Killing said champion will disable Dracus' immunity shield. At random intervals, often upon half his health depleted, Dracus will summon a portable shield that will act similarly to shields deployed by Injection Rigs. These shields cannot be shot into but shot out from and can be disabled by repeated damage to the core. Repeated blows to Dracus' Shieldbearer Champions and damage to himself will end up killing him.
Trivia
- Commander Dracus is referred to as Commander Dravus in the lore tab "The Hopeful Legion" of the "From the Front" Lorebook. This is likely a discrepancy.
