Yaviks, the Rider: Difference between revisions

Yaviks is a talented Rider well known for being the first to complete the nearly impossible run through the Ragged-Valley, a chaotic space of multiple asteroids strung together. For this she was highly praised by her fellow Barons and even [[Marcus Ren]], who only succeeded after 5 tries.<ref name="RV">[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/the-ragged-valley-sprint?highlight=yaviks The Ragged Valley]</ref>

Her reasons for making the run are unknown, but the legend grew with each telling of the story. From running away with Ether, to making off with Golden Age technology to running away from a vengeful fire team, or being challenged by a [[Kell]] or [[Archon]] as a test of skill or because her relationship with [[Fikrul, the Fanatic|Fikrul]] was complicated.<ref name="RV"/>

Riding atop a upgraded [[Heavy Pike]], Yaviks sought to replace the hierarchy of the [[Fallen]] by spreading anarchy across [[the Reef]]. Releasing deadly toxins along the way. She is responsible for the destruction of eight [[Awoken]] outposts, six [[Techeun]] temples, and hundreds of Awoken lives.  

However her days of riding was cut short when Cayde arrived and caught her after beating her in a race.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/adventure-target-the-rider?highlight=yaviks Adventure: Target: The Rider]</ref> Locked deep within the [[Prison of Elders]], she was freed around a year after the events of the [[Red War]] by [[Uldren Sov]], and was present as he executed [[Cayde-6]].<ref name="GIBarons"/>
