{{Quote|[[Dominus Ghaul|Ghaul]] sought a power too weak to jumpstart a broken, dead empire. Which is why he failed. And which is why we will succeed. Seek us out, and you will conceive true power. Then, the [[Guardian|Lightbearers]] will truly know death.|[[Forum:Dominus Xaruun (reworked)|Dominus Xaruun]]}}
The '''Neon Wraiths''' is a research and development detachment distinguishable by their black armor and cyan painting and lights, with a few bearing an icy appearance thanks to the effects of Stasis. Commanded by former [[Primus]] [[Forum:Dominus Xaruun (reworked)|Xaruun]], the weapons development group splintered off the [[Red Legion]] prior to the [[Red War]] to freely conduct research on hostile weaponry and tactics to repurpose for themselves. Following the events of [[Beyond Light]], the Legion would utilize some intercepted [[House of Salvation]] tech, comms and abducted engineers and begin researching the [[Darkness]] and it's paracausal abilities, eventually developing a means of harnessing [[Stasis]] much like their [[Fallen]] prisoners. They serve as the main antagonists of the [[Forum:Season of Strife|Season of Strife]].
==History==
===Creation===
{{Quote|The [[Red Legion]], even with its numerous resources and advanced tech, simply does not allow innovation to flourish. Even if this [[Red War|plan]] was successful, pride will get in the way of actual progress. It's time we act on our accord. It's time we make a real change for our people. For the better.|Former Red Legion [[Primus]] [[Forum:Dominus Xaruun|Xaruun]]}}
Before the [[Red War]], the once esteemed [[Primus]] of the [[Red Legion]], [[Forum:Dominus Xaruun (reworked)|Xaruun]] would begin to question the current technological power and standing of his group as well as the potential and inevitable future of his army were they to go through with the plan to harvest the [[Traveler]]'s Light. Over time, the Primus would begin to rally a bunch of his most loyal followers, trusted lieutenants and most brilliant minds technological and scientific minds before finally splintering off from the legion to form their very own, taking with them a good deal of the fleet, including an experimental planet-cracker ship, [[Forum:The Indomitable|The Indomitable]]. Despite becoming traitors of the Cabal Empire, the Red Legion would ignore the mutiny and would continue with their plan to assault Humanity's [[The Last City|Last City]]. Without the threat of the undoubtedly larger Legion they came from, the Wraiths would finally begin work on new weapons, tactics and vehicle designs in peace, utilizing scrap metal and circuitry from extra weaponry and extraneous Warships and their reserves of vehicles. At the time, such accomplishments included Hoplite, Vilicus, Argonaut and Aestus infantry, the different [[Scorpius|Scorpius]] turret variants, Slug Repeater, Excavation Rifle and Drill Launcher weaponry and Imperator dropships.

===Rise of Opportunities and the Seizing of Them===
====A Shattered Legion====
{{Quote|[[Thumos, the Unbroken|Thumos]], old friend, it's not like you for this to happen to you." <br> "Xaruun? Wh-where am I? What... happened to my people?" <br> "Exactly what I feared, good friend.|Xaruun conversing to a hospitalized Thumos}}
As curiously foreseen by the still-Primus Xaruun, the [[Red War]] would ensue, resulting in a catastrophic defeat for the Red Legion. Now scattered and headless, many Red Legion soldiers would find themselves under the banner of the Neon Wraiths and would offer up much more of their equipment and ships to help with the cause, including some of Xaruun's former colleagues such as a then-Valus [[Forum:Primus Thru'urn|Thru'urn]], [[Forum:Kabratos, the Destroyer|Kabratos]] and a recovering [[Forum:Thumos, Blood of Phantoms|Thumos]], who was recovered by Xaruun's agents. While the Wraith's forces continued to grow in size and might, it was only after the death of [[Val Ca'uor]] when Xaruun took up the mantle of [[Dominus]] for the sake of his allies and to possibly unite more of his forces. With more and more deserters joining his cause, and more clever minds filling his ranks, more technologies rolled in including the highly advanced Desolator and Accipiter drones taken from interrogated [[Fallen]] engineers. Despite that, they would continue to build their forces around the extraterrestrial planetary moons and dwarf planets such as Callisto, Oberon and Pluto, keeping a close eye on the exploits of the Red Legion remnants and even encouraging much of their actions, such as covertly guiding the [[Almighty]] towards the [[Last City]].

===Dark Temptations===
{{Quote|[[Black Fleet|They]] have finally reared their ugly head. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing is Xaruun's decision. Me? As long as it gets our enemies more at each other's throats, I'm more than happy.|[[Forum:Bracus Paraquos, the Entrusted|Bracus Paraquos]]}}
After the failed attempt to eradicate the Last City with the Almighty, the Neon Wraiths would observe as the [[Black Fleet]] would pass them by and begin to root themselves on some of the key planets and moons of the [[Sol System]]. Remaining ever vigilant, the Neon Wraiths would continue to remain in the shadows as the [[Pyramid]]s attempted to commune with the Guardians in spite of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]]'s interference. While the forces of the Last City were engaged with all matters of Interference, the Neon Wraiths would begin to study more closely the Pyramids, still superstitious of their power. After intercepting communications on the intent of the Pyramids, the many covert research operations of the Neon Wraiths would evacuate and avoid disappearing with the worlds themselves and begin a search for the whereabouts of the disappeared ships in an effort to continue their research on their quaint technologies and powers.

====One Empire to Another====
{{Quote|The [[House of Salvation|Fallen]] on the moon they call "[[Europa]]" seemed have begun weaponizing and utilizing the powers of these [[Pyramids]]. Perhaps, if we were to get them to talk, we could learn a thing or two from them. Then we will finally achieve what [[Dominus Ghaul|Ghaul]] childishly pursued: Godhood.|[[Forum:Primus Pro'taul|Primus Pro'taul]]}}
Shortly after the disappearance of the worlds, the Neon Wraiths would renew their research with the discovery of the [[Europan Pyramid]] and the heightened activity of the [[Fallen]] around it. Uncovering the new powers of the rising [[House of Salvation]], many of the Wraith's scientists would attempt to extract as much of the new dark technologies for themselves and abduct many of the House of Salvation's engineers to assist in their weapons development, even recruiting the ambitious Fallen [[Baron]] [[Forum:Crataks, Fallen Partisan|Crataks]] to their cause at the hesitant behest of Primus Thru'urn. As such, their forces now found [[Stasis]] in their arsenal and began to practice it's capabilities extensively in secret.

With the arrival of the [[Imperial Cabal]] and the discovery of the loss of their homeworld of [[Torobatl]] to the [[Hive]], some Wraiths would run off to the promise of the [[Rite of Proving]] in an effort to fight for their Empire. Despite that, many, Xaruun included, would find the defeat at the hand of the Hive as embarrassing and as a troubling omen to the decline of the Cabal as they are now, further cementing their loyalty to the plan of ambitious vengeance against the Last City, fighting now for their own personal glory and for a chance to rally the Cabal behind them.

===Season of Strife===
====The Initial Invasion====
{{Quote|Alright troops, listen up! Now we are finally making our move within this [[Acrius]]-forsaken system. We are going to establish a foothold on each and every one of these worlds and push back any hostile entrenched there. Remember: push, box, corner, kill. That's how we win. Here's your objectives-|Intercepted comms from a Neon Wraith [[Centurion]]}}
Following the [[Season of the Chosen]], now armed with the powers and weaponry of [[Stasis]], [[Forum:Dominus Xaruun (reworked)|Xaruun]] finally ordered the Wraiths out of the shadows and into war. With all of the factions in a weakened state and the Vanguard still deciding a plan of confrontation with the [[Pyramids]], the Wraiths easily overwhelmed their opponents and laid claim to the various corners of the [[Solar System]] and established their strongholds and research operations all over. Although the Legion, with all of it's might, has yet to make their move against the Last City, the [[Vanguard]] would organize a plan of counterassault against the Legion, calling all Guardians to do everything in their power to sabotage their operations and take out their leadership, most notable of which was one of the Legion's [[Primus]]'s who was currently scouting and overseeing most of the Legion's current operations, [[Forum:Primus Pro'taul|Primus Pro'taul]].

====Pro'taul's Tour====
{{Quote|Pro'taul is a smart boy. He can guess the gravity of his situation. Hopefully, he finds out the answer before he idiotically gets himself killed in the process.|Dominus Xaruun}}

====Dark, Buried Secrets====
{{Quote|I gave her the moniker, Entrusted, for a reason. I have no doubt Paraquos will pull through for Project Black Horizons. Even if it costs her her own life. She knows that. But I know she doesn't care. And that's why she is a Bracus.|Dominus Xaruun}}

====Ploy of the Vengeful Bloodguard====
{{Quote|Sure, I'm loyal to my good friend and commander, but I don't fight for the Wraiths for honor and glory. I don't fight to finally go home. I fight because I'm going to ensure that, this time, I break [[The Guardian|someone]] who broke me.|[[Forum:Thumos, Blood of Phantoms|Thumos, Blood of Phantoms]]}}

====Wrath of the Shattered Tusk====
{{Quote|The [[Guardian]]s keep making us look like fools. Like the [[Sand Eaters]]. Time to actually make a difference. Get my team on the line. Tell them simply to get to work. They'll know what I'm talking about. They always do.|[[Forum:Primus Thru'urn|Primus Thru'urn]]}}

====The Long Slow Whisper====
{{Quote|In my travel to the [[Deep Stone Crypt|Crypt]], not only did I accomplish evolution as the [[Fallen]] did, but I also found a means to cripple [[Humanity]] without utterly destroying them. And I'm on my way to see to it myself.|[[Forum:Primus Lho'tam-1|Primus Lho'tam-1]]}}

====Last Gasp====
{{Quote|I know you were probably expecting some big old dramatic and climactic battle for the fate of your home with some big old gun pointed straight at your friends. In truth, however, you mistake me for that kind of Cabal and, well, I think we both know I wouldn't survive that. As a matter of fact, I left this message as a gesture of good faith and a reminder that we are allies bound against unconventional enemies... you know who I'm talking about. At first, I thought it, this... power, was our means to return to glory, our chance at seizing vengeance for what you stole from us. It blinded me. I was lucky I realized it before it was too late. I heard the [[The Witness|voice]] behind it and how it encouraged things even I would consider... vile. I will not be a servant to it. But redemption among the Cabal is a very fickle matter as you'll soon learn and [[Empress Caiatl|Caiatl]] wouldn't be so enthusiastic about me returning to her ranks and have me killed on the spot. So, I'm going to do the only thing I can do: bring the fight to it. This will probably be the final words you will hear from me and that's fine for the both of us, I presume. War is coming my friend, and your world happens to have the unfortunate fate of being stuck right between the battle lines. I can't explain the gravity of what is to come, so all I can say is, be ready. If, by miracle, I survive, I do hope to see you again. I owe you the battle you deserve.|Dominus Xaruun's final message to the Guardian before leaving}}
