Ruva'ak, Sun Eater is an Ascendant Hive Darkblade of the Shrouded Swarm. During his time as a part of the Blood of Oryx, Ruva'ak made a name for himself as a fierce and merciless warrior, toppling many civilizations in the name of Oryx.

Biography

Ruva'ak was born to a Wizard of unknown origin along with his two brothers, Qahna'ar and Zahkri'i. While the two brothers were fine on their own, Ruva'ak was born without a Worm to consume, leading to premature incapacitation. The brothers would be discovered by Ecthar, Sword of Oryx; Ecthar supplied Ruva'ak with a worm, allowing him to awaken and spring to life. Ecthar took note of their "evolved morphs" and brought them back to Oryx under the assumption that they were born from an ascendant mother.

Once the brothers were taken before Oryx, the king became attentive to the brother's bond and swore them in as members of the Blood of Oryx. When Savathûn and Xivu Arath requested to take in one of the brothers, Oryx refused, instead allowing them to name one each. Oryx named Ruva'ak after the Perfect Raven, the empress of the extinct Taishibethi. The king gave Ruva'ak a weapon and a name, telling him that he must earn everything else through triumph.

Fighting for Power

Ruva'ak battled his way through the Court of Oryx, fighting many formidable opponents such as Thalnok, Hashladûn, and Lokaar. Ruva'ak made his way up the hierarchy of the Hive pantheon through combat, earning a small amount of Hive to his name to control. When asked where the Knight came from by Savathûn, the young champion refused to talk to her, knowing of her trickery and cunning. Ruva'ak would go to Oryx and demand that he reprimand her for distracting him. The king mocked him for such a silly request, forcing him to battle another member of the court, Sotrec. Ruva'ak beat Sotrec with relative ease, impressing Oryx, allowing him to become a true member of the court.

Fall of the Astrius

"On the ninth day, the Imperfect Raven arrived, his gaze shook the entire planet. It took but one strike to sever the arm of the Celestial Effigy, the end of Inyria."
— Ancient hymn describing the Inyria Infection.

After becoming a powerful member of Oryx's court, Ruva'ak and his hive would be dispatched to explore and conquer worlds beyond the Hive's current reach. Ruva'ak boarded his new ship, the Blackstone Vasa, and began to explore the cosmos in search of life.


Trivia

  • The name "Ruva'ak" originates from a word in the Dragon Language from The Elder Scrolls V:Skyrim; Ruvaak, meaning raven (formerly meaning black, in reference to death).[1]
