The Neon Wraiths are a small, powerful Cabal legion created as a means to study enemy tech and develop weapons to counter them. After the death of Ca'uor, the presiding commander, Xaruun, decided to exploit what’s left of the Red Legion’s leadership and became Dominus of the Cabal. Sometime later, the Neon Wraiths purchased The Bloodbound to keep the Vex and Hive back while they plot and develop weapons.

Unique Forces

The Neon Wraiths use the same soldiers, weapons and technology as do other Cabal legions. However, some are unique only to them and the Bloodbound, due to the Scout Legions evacuation and the condition of the Red Legion.

  • Modified War Beast—Larger, more resilient War Beasts that can poison a foe for Void damage if the melee connects.
  • Wraith Psion—Larger Psion variant which, rather than running, will crouch down and teleport to where they want to go.
  • VenatorPsions armed with cloaking tech, silenced weaponry, and the Mortem Sword. Utilizes a Solar ability that sends a spray of semi-explosive flechettes.
    • Wraith Venator—Larger Venator armed with a grapple hook for movement and pulling in targets in their Sword phase.

  • Hoplite—Cabal troops armed with a small shield that can be emplaced for other troops.
    • Wraith Hoplite—Larger Hoplite whose Shield also drops a mountable turret only usable by Cabal.
  • Wraith Phalanx—Larger Phalanx who carries a larger, metal shield armed with small lights with the ability to blind targets.
  • Wraith Incendior—Larger Incendior with a secondary attack which can freeze targets. Alternation between weapon types is instant.
  • Venator Prime—Cabal armed with cloaking tech, silenced weaponry, and the Mortem Sword. Hones supreme agility and utilizes thruster packs more often than other Cabal.
    • Wraith Venator Prime—Larger Venator Prime which shares the same ability as a Wraith Venator.
  • Tesserarius—A Cabal combatant with the ability to place down a device that creates an aura that heals Cabal allies. Device can be destroyed or will expire.
    • Wraith Tesserarius—Larger Tesserarius that now places the healing device now armed with a “Bubble Shield”. Bubble Shield works similarly to a Ward of Dawn.
  • BarbarianGladiator variant that hones a pair of claws that double as shields. Faster than Gladiators, but less armored.
    • Wraith Barbarian—Larger Barbarian who can charge at an opponent to knock them back. Getting hit by this attack will cause a target to be disoriented, where the Guardian's view will shake and swirl.
  • Wraith Gladiator—Larger Gladiator who can throw Cleavers and place traps. Traps will lock a target in place and slowly damages them until target is killed or if the trap is broken.
  • Praetorian—Mid-sized Cabal armed with the Aquilla Staff. Extreme aggressive and nimble, they are the fastest of the Cabal. They can deflect bullets and dodge attacks. They come in 3 forms.
    • Leo Praetorian—Praetorian which utilizes Solar attacks. Staff burns a target and it’s heavy attack will leave behind a pool of flame. Can cast a Solar Net on a target, trapping them in place and slowly damaging them. Net dissipates when target is killed or if the Net is destroyed.
    • Taurus Praetorian—Praetorian which utilizes Arc attacks. Staff shocks a target and it’s heavy attack sends a wave of Arc energy. Can place down a Banner for Troops to rally at. Banner increases enemy damage and health. The Banner can be destroyed or dissipate if left alone for long enough.
    • Lupus Praetorian—Praetorian which utilizes Void attacks. Staff slows targets and it’s heavy attack flings shrapnel in different directions. Can throw a Smoke Bomb to cloak itself and it’s allies. Although attacking reveals the attacker’s location, melee damage is 500% stronger.

    • Wraith Vilicus—Larger Vilicus armed with a Missile Launcher which rapidly fires Solar Missiles. More vulnerable when firing.

    • Wraith Optio—Larger Optio which now places more resilient and shielded Turrets. Turrets now explode after death. Explosion is fatal for lower power enemies.

    • Wraith Argonite—Larger Argonite that carries a large Energy Shield that extends for allies to shoot through. Can still move with extended shield. Can also place shields much like a Hoplite.
  • Wraith Colossus—Larger Colossus that can stomp the ground in which opponents will be flung into the air. Those who were just outside the stomping area will get the "Tremor" debuff, grounding them temporarily. Fling area is within 5 meters and Tremor is within 15 meters.
  • Decanus—A Colossus variant that carries a Flechette Launcher and fires Void Missles that, upon impact with the ground, becomes mines that can be shot.
    • Wraith Decanus—Larger Decanus which carries a large arsenal of weaponry. Can deploy Turrets, deploy Roller Mines and carries a rapidly-firing Missile Launcher. Carries a countermeasure to explosive weaponry. Countermeasure quarters the damage of explosives.
