- "No, no, they’re supposed to be dead! Why are they here! You don’t understand, they’re different. They don’t have ethics and they won’t just kill, they’ll torture and enslave. We need to stop them, Guardian"
- — Mithrax
The House of Fear are a House of Fallen Splicers and slavers. They are mainly known for their unorthodox experiments and unique views on The Traveler and The Darkness. They were a late player in the War for Sol as they were pillaging other systems. They first take up lair in Riis-Reborn, stealing it from Salvation fallen and repurposing it. The House of Fear made the remaining House Salvation on Europa their slave vassal and often mistreated them. They are also infamous for their large amount of Splicers, cruelty, war crimes, and willingness to enslave other species including their own. The House of Fear also uses a unique SIVA blade to eliminate Guardians permanently, however these are only given to high ranking lieutenants. More recently, they have come under the command of the Xavias, Kell of Fear, who seeks to use every single unique power of Sol: including the light and darkness.
History[edit]
Early History[edit]
War against the Vex[edit]
Taking Control of Europa[edit]
Their skiffs arrived at the Gale's Watch exterior landing pad, the area where Eramis used to be frozen. Then a team of Fallen were dispelled from the Skiff and secured Gale's Watch, taking the House Salvation members prisoner and saying they'd explain later. The team continued on, striking a deal with a Captain who used comms to tell his men to stand down. The Salvation members shut off the cannons protecting the air space of Riis Reborn and the Fear Skiffs entered the base. The team arrived in Kell's Rising and eliminated all of the Vex units using a Splicer in the team. Securing Ether Caches and sending them away on Skiffs. As the team and skiffs arrived in Technocrat's Iron they quickly secured the military factory and loaded in more of their troops. Finally a small recon squad secured Riis-Reborn Approach. Calling in all of the Salvation Fallen to the large meeting room of Riis-Reborn, the House of Fear gave them an announcement. They enslaved House Salvation, subjecting them as their workers and test subjects. As well as that they would force some to fight, killing all deserters. But there was a chance for Salvation here, those that proved themselves had a chance at becoming part of House Fear itself. The next months were devoted to the settling of Fear troops and the work of Salvation Fallen. When House Salvation tried to rebel, House Fear would quickly put it down, even hosting public executions. Salvation eventually lost hope, giving in to Fear's strict punishments. Evix, the Investigator served as a strict warden and leader of the house while Koliks seemed to command them. When a guardian patrol, however, encountered these new Fallen, a war that would be remembered in both Fallen and Human history would begin.
First Guardian Encounter[edit]
Pretty much having no idea what the Guardians were, the House of Fear initially underestimated them. That lead to a devastating first battle. The Guardian Patrol managed to eliminate a whole entire unit of House of Fear troops before they understood what they were dealing with. Then they sent their Light-Nullifying Splicers in. These Splicers could crush Ghosts just like Guardians did to Hive. Many guardians died and the rest of the patrol gathered their dead and ran. When The Guardian was deployed to investigate the patrol's findings, Mithrax, Kell of Light originally believed House Salvation was under their control like the House of Wolves, willingly. But when House Salvation Dregs tried to run to the Guardian with their hands raised, unarmed, and were shot down by House of Fear snipers, the horrifying truth was brought to light. The Guardian quickly passed through Riis-Reborn, noticing changes. They arrived in an unseen before area, a Fallen neighborhood deeper in Riis Reborn. However there was lots of watchtowers for the House of Fear to watch over the Salvation and the Guardian even witnessed from afar a Vandal beat a Dreg down. The Guardian finally arrived in the command center of Gale's Watch to a horrifying sight. Fallen Vandals and Dregs attached to glowing tubes in these strange pods. The Guardian watched through the glass door as a Dreg was shoved into one of the pods and attached to the tubes. Then a captain was about to be shoved in but freed itself and killed its captors. It opened the door to the Guardian, letting them in and getting them. He announces himself as Arriks. You and Arriks fight together against a wave of House Fear troops and enslaved House Salvation. But then a new Splicer arrives. Mithrax notes he has never seen this kind of power before and The Guardian fights them. After a difficult and laborious fight, the Guardian eliminates the Splicer.
Attack on The Reef[edit]
A House of Fear contingent led by Orathiks, the Archangel arrived in The Dreaming City’s orbit with a Ketch. They deployed a few skiffs and a team secured one of the buildings in the city as well as the place where Riven was killed. When The Vanguard discovered their operations, the Guardian was dispatched to bring them down. When Orathiks and his men finally arrived at Riven’s Corpse to try and loot it, The Guardian was already on site. Eliminating the defense force that had holed in the tower, they destroyed the four skiffs launching back up to the force inside the tower and then continued on. Now trapped, Orathiks sent in his only remaining lieutenant to the front line. Though the lieutenant had enough time to set up traps and turrets, they were still defeated by the Guardian. Finally, the Guardian confronted Orathiks, now a second time. Eliminating the Baron, they managed to secure the area from the Fallen.
Rebirth of Orathiks[edit]
Orathiks’ corpse was recovered by a small team of Splicers lead by Joriks who managed to get in undetected. From there, they took Orathiks to a nearby safehouse in the Dreaming City and put him within cyro. As the Splicers awaited the extraction skiff, they held off a few waves of Taken. They were eventually extracted and made it back safely without interference. The contingent who brought Orathiks back took him to Riis-Reborn.
War against the Vanguard[edit]
After hunting down a powerful Captain of the House, the Guardian returned on foot to the Bunker with their head. Evix, the House Enforcer for Fear and leader of its intelligence division, tracked The Guardian to the bunker. Gathering his forces, Evix lead a brutal attack on the bunker. After capturing House of Light and House of Spider residents of the Bunker, he tested their combat skills. He enslaved Spider’s Associates, and found the House of Light members weak. So he sent a video recording to Mithrax and The Vanguard of him executing the prisoners. In retaliation, The Guardian hunted down Periks, Fear Baroness. She was leading an expedition to Nessus. Arriving on Nessus, Empress Caiatl briefed the Guardian on the House of Fear's attack on Halphas Electus. They had somehow made it inside and eliminated most of Caiatl's skeleton crew. The Guardian heads inside, eliminating Periks' lieutenant and more of their soldiers. Making it to the arena area, they fight Periks, who transmats in the last second to her Ketch. Fighting to reach the Ketch, they secretly hijack one of the Skiffs to reach the ship. Inside, they find Periks and eliminate her. Evix, Koliks, and Reniks all got into an argument and Koliks stormed off. A few days of silence reign in between, but it's clear something big is coming. The Coalition's Fallen and the Vanguard prepare their troops, and it seems the Vex have also been gathering. The House of Fear prepare their defenses. Meanwhile, Koliks and Reniks were called to the operation room on the Ketch where they studied the Darkness. Confused as to why Evix called them there, they notice him near the door. Evix locks them into the operation room and takes over the House before declaring martial law. Evix then moves to meet Mithrax, Eramis, Variks and The Guardian while Koliks attempts to fix his broken transmat system. The meeting with Evix is a fiasco, as Evix just insulted them and told the Guardian he was working with a bunch of cowards. So the Coalition prepares their attack and while they prepare on a House of Light Ketch, Koliks transmats to them abruptly with his hotwired system. He explains everything and then agrees that if they bring down Evix, he will make a truce.
The Battle for Riis-Reborn[edit]
The Vex had recognized the Fallen intruders and had hence activated a return protocol for the Sol Infiltrative. The Hunting Mind had returned. They gathered up their forces near the outskirts of Riis Reborn and launched their attack from the tunnels. Meanwhile, The Coalition's invasion force readied up in the Eventide Ruins. From there, the Guardian and Mithrax headed the attack. The battle was brutal, with deaths on both sides as the Guardian cleared passed through Riis-Reborn approach. He couldn't stop to help those fighting in the battle at Approach because he had an Enforcer to kill. So he passed through as quickly as possible and eventually reached
The New Kell[edit]
It had been a while until anyone had seen the House of Fear, after the Rise of Fear, but safe to say: they were back. Recently the House of Dusk on the moon sent out a distress signal to Mithrax and when a House of Light group lead by the Light Kell himself arrived on the moon: they found a horrific sight. The House of Dusk on the moon had been mostly massacred, and their territory had been heavily changed. The House of Fear had fortified the Traitor's Ketch and also the surrounding area, building up more territory.
Structure[edit]
Overall[edit]
The main house leader depends on what time period you're looking at, but it's more unique than other Houses. Any current Archon usually spends their time with the Splicers only, and are ordered to focus on tech production. At some points, the archon Mirks was forcefully locked away by both the old Kell and Xavias to make sure they focused on work. The Prime Servitors serve as gods still, as the House of Fear tend to act more like traditional fallen. Then below the Archons is a unique group known as House Enforcer. These are important Fallen that rank above Barons. At most there have been three Enforcers at one time. Barons serve as generals, lead slavers, and are promoted by Enforcers to serve the House, which is a great honor. Then there are the Fearkeepers who serve as bodyguards, elite soldiers, and deadly assassins. Below that they have standard Fallen command system and have enslaved Salvation troops as soldiers. They will shoot deserting troops. The house has an entire fleet of Ketches, at least three main Prime Servitors, and are the current most powerful house in Sol.
Under Mirks[edit]
The House of Fear is led by their two Archons, an enforcer named Evix, and two Barons. Reniks doesn't actually interact much with the house other than the Splicers and stay locked in their vault on the Ketch. However, the archon Koliks leads the house. The Enforcer pretty much leads the battles and serves as a direct subordinate to the Archons. The Barons on the other hand interact with the house a bit more. Mirks actually does stuff like recruiting new members but he is often away from most of the House due to his crusades to become a liaison with other houses or even species. Also he just kind of does his own thing but he’ll visit the house every now and then when they need someone to command it. Orathiks is really just a mercenary and leads a hit squad but other than that doesn’t actually lead the House. Below them are a group of Splicers who pretty much command the house because the high-ranking guys don’t.
Under Xavias[edit]
Due to Xavias interacting with the darkness, he now has a hunger for every individual power in the system: including light. When he took power, he didn't kill Reniks but just locked her away in the ketch and forced her to develop ways to contain the various abilities of sol. Reniks kept things mostly the same but after the death of Evix, he appointed a new House Enforcer.
