- "Never heard of the Mindbender? Surprise. That’s just how he likes it."
- — Cayde-6[1]
Hiraks, the Mindbender, is a Baron of the Scorn, and an Ascendant Eliksni. A year after the events of the Red War, Uldren Sov freed him along with six other Scorn Barons, and worked together to orchestrate a massive breakout from the Prison of Elders. After the murder of Cayde-6 at Uldren's hands, Hiraks fled the scene alongside the prince and his fellow barons to the Tangled Shore. He has the ability to summon Hive combatants and wields a Knight's Boomer in battle. He reigns over a throne world, which is identified only as "Ascendant Plane".
Biography
As a Dreg, Hiraks fell into the Hellmouth on the Moon. He emerged obsessed with the Hive and incomprehensible in his speech (possibly having adopted the Hive's language) and began to study them. Years later, Hiraks found a way to form his own throne world within the Ascendant realm and gained a reputation for his ability to unravel his enemies' minds, along with his command over the Hive.
As the mastermind of the Great Crow Heist, Hiraks trapped and converted Prince Uldren's Crows with his powers, using them to help engineer mistrust between the Reef and Earth. He was also responsible for experiments on Asteroid 128 Nemesis, where his actions caused the asteroid to shift between our dimension and the Ascendant realm.[1]
Trivia
- The Mindbender is the first enemy observed working with a race they are at war with.
- He is the first Fallen ever seen to have mastered the power of the Ascendant realm and carved his own throne world from it.
- His past of being forced to survive amongst the Hive for years within the Hellmouth is very similar to that of Eris Morn. They both also were physically changed, with Eris having to steal an Acolytes' eyes, while Hiraks appears to have either grown or grafted Hive-like horns onto his armor.
- Hiraks is the only Scorn Baron that does not speak English.
- It is unknown if the Hangman and the Rider speak English as they have only been heard roaring and growling.
- Hiraks is the largest and tallest of the Scorn Barons, easily towering over them and even Hive Ogres.
