Years later, he would be commanded again to steal the tithes created by the Guardian in order to empower Eris Morn to stop Xivu Arath.

The Leviathan-Eater, Bane of the Ammonites (formerly known as Ir Uulxal) is a Knight and the most powerful champion of the Hive God Xivu Arath in her brood. Known for killing the Leviathan that once graced the Ammonites, he would later be tasked with stealing the tithes to Eris Morn and to kill the Guardian in the process.

Biography

Once known as the Knight Ir Uulxal, the Knight was present during the Hive's war against the Ammonites, which climaxed in a final confrontation to escape Fundament's atmosphere. As the Ammonites' champion Chroma-Admiral Rafriit was cast down by a million sacrificed Hive and subsequently torn to pieces, Xivu Arath commands Ir Uulxal to slaughter the now exposed Leviathan. He would succeed in killing it and devour its flesh; spilling its massive viscera to the Ammonites below. He would be commended by the God of War herself and be renamed to the Leviathan-Eater, earning the title of Bane of the Ammonites.[1]

Recently, Xivu Arath would actively besiege her sister's throne world, attempting to steal the bounty of tithes Savathûn had hoarded in secret for centuries in her oubliette. She would also size up the Guardians tithed towards Eris Morn, whom had recently evolved into the Hive God of Vengeance, and calls upon the Leviathan-Eater to interrupt their tithes and to test their strength against his as a challenge worthy of proving. After a major skirmish, the Leviathan-Eater retreated from the oubliette to prepare for their true confrontation yet to come.[2]

Upon the final tithe to Eris Morn, Xivu Arath would call forth the Leviathan-Eater within the Altar of the Sword to combat them once again. Calling forth hordes of Hive along with a bombardment from Tomb Ships, he would eventually fall at the Guardian's hands and his death would be tithed Eris Morn before her final tithe. [3]
