Darkness: Difference between revisions

The [[Scorn]] are a horde of undead [[Fallen]] created through the use of [[Dark Ether|Ether infused with Darkness]]. Originally born from a distorted wish granted to [[Uldren Sov]] by the [[Taken]] [[Ahamkara]] [[Riven]], the scorn display the ability to resurrect, even multiple times, though their minds seemingly degrade with each return. They were originally led by [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]], a heretical [[Archon]] and first in their number, but since his disappearance they have been seen under the control of other powerful Darkness entitites, like the [[Disciples of the Witness]] and [[Xivu Arath, God of War]]. The Witness itself seems capable of resurrecting dead eliksni into more scorn, which has been used as punishment for Eramis's repeated failures.

Scorn under this new leadership enjoy access to powerful Pyramid technology, which allows many of them to rise to the power of their deceased [[Baron]]s, and perhaps even surpass them. However, despite their power, all scorn are often fully enslaved to the entity controlling them, incapable of expressing original thoughts. When abandoned without a guide, they follow whatever order was given to them last, which usually brings them to repeat their violence on others in an endless loop.
