Variks, the Loyal: Difference between revisions

Variks observed the [[SIVA Crisis]] in the [[Plaguelands]] on Earth from afar, utilizing the Crows. One of his agents brought him an image of [[Sepiks Prime]] reborn as [[Sepiks Perfected]] by the [[Devil Splicers]] using [[SIVA]]. He noted this was the result of a [[Golden Age]] project, with the Devil Splicers using the technological advancements the Traveler gave to Humanity. Variks complimented the young Crow on her work before instructing her to speak with the other Crows and learn more of the Devil Splicers' plans. Once she left, Variks allowed himself to feel the full horror of what the Splicers had done to Sepiks. He contemplated once more if he could have stopped his people from using such dangerous technology had he remained among them and found a better way to survive. Variks resolved to find a way to prevent his people from falling any further.<ref name="GFF5"/>

Months later during [[The Dawning]], Variks intercepted chatter about an impending alliance between the weakened Devil Splicers and the leaderless crew of the mercenary [[Taniks, the Scarred]]. He discovered that the Devils Splicers used SIVA to resurrect their infamous leader as [[Taniks Perfected]] to cement their alliance. Variks relayed his findings to the [[Vanguard]], leading to a Strike that ended the resurrected Taniks. This once again left the Splicers and Taniks's crew leaderless and in a severely weakened state.<ref>'''Bungie (2016-9-20)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Strikes#The_Shadow_Thief:_Revisited|The
