Forum:Vulpis, the Dracobane

"We are Weapon Smiths and Assassins who strike with fear and precision. We are the nightmares that our enemies deny exist. We are missionaries seeking the great machine. We will succeed where all other Eliksni have failed. We are Dragon's Breath. Join us and prosper!"

- Vulpis rallying her new followers

Vulpis, the Dracobane is the Fallen Kell of the secretive Dragon's Breath Order. She is known for many feats, mostly considered myths, most notably the slaying of an Ahamkara Dragon.

Devil Baroness
"Once, I was a Baroness of the House of Devils. Oh, what a mess they were in. The the power vacuum you Guardians left. You might as well say they were fighting a Three Front War"

- Vulpis addressing her days as a Devil Vulpis was born into the House of Devils slightly after the Battle of the Twilight Gap. She quickly ascended the ranks from Dreg to Vandal to Captain. Making enemies along the way and eliminating them before they become a threat. By 15 Earth years, young for the Fallen, she was allowed access to a fleet of Skiffs and Ketches. Cleverly, she tended to avoid Vanguard attention by leaving Vanguard convoys alone, avoiding important Human ruins and even taking prisoners. Rarely did she and her fleet attack any Vanguard or Guardian operatives. Although, against other Houses and races, she was brutal. Reports have stated that she personally docks other or disobedient Fallen with her bare hands before throwing them with the Thralls.

As a Baroness, she tended to deploy shock squads to manage Glimmer excavation all around the Solar System. At her peak, it was said she had accumulated 402 tons of Glimmer. Some were gained through the ransoms she demanded from prisoners, others from ransacking other Houses, and, sometimes, trade deals with the aforementioned Houses. Her fellow Barons some times referred to her fleet as The Priceless Armada. Coincidentally, she stowed all of her findings before she was exiled, before others could claim it.

It was until one fateful day, that a certain Guardian and some others uncovered one of their operations in The Divide in the Cosmodrome, it was then a Fallen Walker and a Glimmer Drill were destroyed. It was then her first loss. She, for the first time, lost. Due to this failure, and other failures such as failing to join in and save Sepiks Prime, she was exiled. Although she prospered the House of Devils and razed many Houses over, her legacy was almost entirely forgotten.

Exile to Exiles
"What I respect about the House of Exile is that they respect me. They've heard what I can do... and what I will do. They knew that wronging me would've been the greatest mistake of their life."

- Vulpis addressing her days as an Exile

After she was deposed from the Devils, she went to the Moon in search of the House of Exiles. She was first found by Frigoris, Exiled Baron, and was quickly brought into the Exiles. She regained her rightful spot as Baroness in the Exiles, as they have heard of her skills and cunning and hoped they would prove fruitful among them.

First, she lead a successful mining operation, fending off the hoards of Hidden Swarm Hive. Second, she personally assassinated a Blade of Crota. Third, she lead a successful heist in the Temple of Crota. And on the fourth attempt, Vulpis lead a massive mining operation with her sister, Srikes, Exile Veteran, where Srikes killed a major Hive Abomination. After the battle, Vulpis demanded Srikes receive a promotion.

She stayed with the House of Exile until the end of the SIVA Crisis, where the members of the Exiles went to join the House of Dusk. However, even with all of her lackeys leaving to join Dusk, even Srikes, Vulpis left to wander the Solar System to start a house all her own.
