'''Klyfiks''' is an [[Eliksni]] engineer. Originally a member of the [[House of Dusk]], he defected to the [[House of Light]] and followed [[Mithrax, Kell of Light]] to [[The Last City]] after the House was offered shelter there by the [[Vanguard]].

==Biography==
While stationed on [[Nessus]] with the [[House of Dusk]] to scavenge from the wreckage of the ''[[Exodus Black]]'', Klyfiks would often hide during clashes between his fellow [[Fallen]] and the [[Vex]]. During one such battle, he took shelter in a cave known as [[The Rift]]. Within he Klyfiks saw a mysterious creature with a [[Headless One|round bulbous head with flaming eyes]], although it did not attack him.<ref name="N6">'''Bungie (2021/8/25)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Lore]]:[[Lore:Tales of the Forgotten — Vol. 1|Tales of the Forgotten — Vol. 1]], [[Lore:Tales_of_the_Forgotten#Nessus_-_6|Nessus - 6]]''</ref>

After leaving the [[House of Dusk]] for the [[House of Light]], Klyfiks was one of many Eliksni who relocated to the [[Botza District]] of [[The Last City]] during the [[Endless Night]]. He was assigned to repair their [[Shank (House Light)|Shank]], which had been damaged during their evacuation from [[Europa]]. Klyfiks set out to scavenge the needed parts to conduct the repairs and found them within the city. As he set about fashioning the parts into what he needed, a [[Humanity|human]] emerged from a nearby building and began yelling at him. Although he could not recognize the words, Klyfiks realized the human was upset and hostile and fled back to the House of Light's encampment. He sought out [[Eido, Daughter of Misraaks|Eido]] and explained the encounter to her. Working with [[Ikora Rey]], Klyfiks learned that the scrap had been set aside by the human to repair a vintage [[Sparrow]]. This was confusing to Klyfiks, as the Eliksni shared all scrap and did not save it for specific purposes, but the House of Light arranged to repay the man for the materials, and the engineer gained a greater understanding of human motives and culture.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - Item Description: [[Sunstead_Suit#Sunstead_Gauntlets|Sunstead Gauntlets]]''</ref>

Seeking a way to build goodwill and trust with their new human neighbors, Klyfiks spied upon a human woman working on a machine that constantly emitted smoke. He resolved to repair it for the woman and took it during the night as she slept, utilizing scrap metal from the Eliksni camp and working through the night. He placed it back before she woke and hid to watch her reaction as it turned on and began to move without emitting much smoke. To his disappointment, the woman was angry, and he and Eido later discovered that the machine had not been broken but was used to smoke and cure meats. However, the neighborhood children were now utilizing it to ride and play in the street all day, leading the two Eliksni to determine that Klyfiks had done a great thing for them.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - Item Description: [[Sunstead_Suit#Sunstead_Greaves|Sunstead Greaves]]''</ref>

Klyfiks was later approached by Eido and the [[Ghost]] [[Glint]], who learned that the engineer might have information regarding a mystery he was investigating: the Headless Ones. Recognizing the description as the creature he saw on Nessus, Klyfiks agreed to provide information on what he saw in exchange for his own Sparrow. The [[Glint|Ghost]] agreed much to Klyfiks's delight, and he described to Glint what he had seen and where, although he cautioned the Ghost that the [[Headless One]] might be more hostile towards them.<ref name="N6"/>

Klyfiks took an apprentice, the novice engineer [[Ekaask]]. While working together on a Pike, Klyfiks noticed Ekaask had grown distracted and deduced Eido to be the source of his attention. He warned him that he had a lot to learn before he would be worthy of someone else's attention.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/8/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Episode: Revenant]] - Item Description: [[Exuviae#Lore|Exuviae]]''</ref>
