| ===Goons of the Boogeyman===
| | Taniks and his crew were paid by the [[House of Winter]] to free [[Aksor, Archon Priest]] from the [[Prison of Elders]]. While they were successful in their raid, Aksor was pinned as a target in the [[Winter's Run]] [[Strike]]. When a fireteam of [[Guardian]]s infiltrated [[Winter's Lair]], they brought him down, leaving the House of Winter broken. |
| Early mention of the Crew is told by [[Cayde-6]] as he retells his encounters of Taniks, who sought to claim a large bounty placed on Cayde's group of [[Hunters]] by ambushing them.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Raise|Raise]]''</ref> Later, Taniks grew in notoriety with the Last City and fought against its greatest of heroes.

| ===The Wolf Pack=== | | ===''[[Shadowkeep]]''=== |
| The [[House of Wolves]] hired Taniks and his Crew to join their Wolf Pack and gifted them [[Kaliks-Syn]] and renamed it as the '''Traitor's Ketch'''.
| | Three years after the supposed final death of Taniks, what became of Tanik's Crew remains a mystery. Those who survived could have joined the [[House of Dusk]], while those who fought on to keep control of their [[Ketch]], [[Kaliks-Syn]], reappared as [[Nightmare]]s. Alternatively, their disappearance and the crash of their ship could have been due to the Hive. The only remaining vestige of their existence is a ruined [[Walker]] that still lies where it was felled a long time ago. |

|
| They ventured into the [[Hellmouth]] to steal from the [[Hive]]. However, during [[The Shadow Thief]] strike, a group of Guardians put their plans to a stop by defeating Taniks.

| ===Taken Incursion=== | | ===Notable Members=== |
| The Crew suffered major losses during the Taken War. Their Ketch became overrun by [[Taken]] forces leading to the corruption of [[Driviks, the Chosen]]. Out of desparation, the crew left an active distress signal that [[Variks]] and the [[The Guardian|Guardian]] would both intercept simultaneously during a [[Lost to Light|mission]]. Variks orders the Guardian to keep the Ketch from falling into Taken hands and prevent a countdown to detonation. This leads to a final conflict with the now-Taken Driviks which puts an end to the Taken incursion.

| A year following the Taken War, remnants of Taniks' crew allied with the [[Devil Splicers]] to rebuilt their leader through [[SIVA]] augmentation, bringing him back as [[Taniks Perfected]]. Taniks would lead the leaderless Splicers to capture local Hive and conduct experimentations, but the [[Vanguard]] deployed a fireteam that stopped the operation, and Taniks was killed once again.<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Strikes#The_Shadow_Thief:_Revisited|The Shadow Thief: Revisited]]''</ref>

| ===Legacy===
| |
| Years after the supposed final death of Taniks, the whereabouts of Tanik's Crew became a mystery. His crew however struggled to keep control of their [[Ketch]], [[Kaliks-Syn]] and it crash landed near [[Anchor of Light]]. The only remaining vestige of their existence is a ruined [[Walker]] that lies in the same spot it felled long ago.
| |
| | |
| It is unknown if the Crew joined the [[House of Salvation]] since the newly formed House located the body of Taniks and reawaken him in the [[Deep Stone Crypt (raid)|Deep Stone Crypt]]. Taniks however fell to the Guardians as it morphed into the [[Heavy Shank]] monstrosity, '''Taniks, the Abomination.'''
