The desperation of modern Fallen Houses can be seen in the state they keep their Servitors, as the [[House of Dusk]] and [[House of Salvation]] have reduced the amount of plating dedicated to their protection, leaving more of the Servitor's circuitry exposed. In the case of Salvation, this is intentional, degrading their appearance as a manifestation of their House's hatred for the Great Machine. | The desperation of modern Fallen Houses can be seen in the state they keep their Servitors, as the [[House of Dusk]] and [[House of Salvation]] have reduced the amount of plating dedicated to their protection, leaving more of the Servitor's circuitry exposed.

While they support the Fallen in battle, shielding and healing allies, facilitating communications and transmitting tactical data between one another, the Servitors' main function is to process matter and energy into [[Ether]] for the Fallen as a hormonal substance to grow into their final forms, [[Captain]]s.

Servitors possess extremely sophisticated and valuable technology, such as Servitor plugs, filters and Ether circulators, to the extent that their artificial intelligence gives them a limited degree of sentience.{{Citation needed}} Despite this, they are vulnerable to being overloaded and shorting out.{{Citation needed}} Not only do they generate Ether, but they also can extract or store it until they are drained of it.{{Citation needed}} The communication network that a Servitor is connected to can be accessed by a [[Ghost]], through which those connected to the network become locatable.{{Citation needed}} | Servitors possess extremely sophisticated and valuable technology, such as Servitor plugs, filters and Ether circulators, to the extent that their artificial intelligence gives them a limited degree of sentience.{{Citation needed}} Despite this, they are vulnerable to being overloaded and shorting out.{{Citation needed}} Not only do they generate Ether, but they also can extract or store it until they are drained of it.{{Citation needed}} The communication network that a Servitor is connected to can be accessed by a [[Ghost]], through which those connected to the network become locatable.{{Citation needed}} | ||
There are more powerful Servitors known as [[High Servitor]]s, capable of jamming signals. Above High Servitors are [[Prime Servitor]]s, the largest known form of Servitor. Prime Servitors are potentially integral to Fallen space travel, offer logistical support, and the Fallen worship and revere them as if they were gods, presumably given their symbolic relevance to Great Machine, as well as the fact that they produce major tons of Ether and are an integral part of the leadership of most Houses, alongside an [[Archon]] and a [[Kell]]. For these reasons, almost every Fallen House has its own Prime Servitor; if it is destroyed, the House becomes extremely vulnerable.{{Citation needed}} Certain Servitors function as pilots, and are called [[Pilot Servitor]]s.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves - Grimoire:Enemies:[[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership|Fallen Leadership]], [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen Leadership#Pilot Servitor|Pilot Servitor]]''</ref> | There are more powerful Servitors known as [[High Servitor]]s, capable of jamming signals.

*In [[Destiny 2]], new death animations were added to the Servitors including elemental deaths and [[Major]] Servitors now share the [[Ultra]] Servitor death animation, however, it is much faster and there is no death screech. | *In [[Destiny 2]], new death animations were added to the Servitors including elemental deaths and [[Major]] Servitors now share the [[Ultra]] Servitor death animation, however, it is much faster and there is no death screech. | ||
