Before the [[Red War]], the once esteemed [[Primus]] of the [[Red Legion]], [[Forum:Dominus Xaruun|Xaruun]] would begin to question the current technological power and standing of his group as well as the potential and inevitable future of his army were they to go through with the plan to harvest the [[Traveler]]'s Light. Over time, the Primus would begin to rally a bunch of his most loyal followers, trusted lieutenants and most brilliant minds technological and scientific minds before finally splintering off from the legion to form their very own. Despite becoming traitors of the Cabal Empire, the Red Legion would ignore the mutiny and would continue with their plan to assault Humanity's [[The Last City|Last City]]. Without the threat of the undoubtedly larger Legion they came from, the Wraiths would finally begin work on new weapons, tactics and vehicle designs in peace, utilizing scrap metal and circuitry from extra weaponry and extraneous Warships and their reserves of vehicles. At the time, such accomplishments included Hoplite, Vilicus, Argonaut and Aestus infantry, the different [[Scorpius|Scorpius]] turret variants, Slug Repeater, Excavation Rifle and Drill Launcher weaponry and Imperator dropships.

===Rise of Opportunities and the Seizing of Them===

====A Shattered Legion====

As curiously foreseen by the still-Primus Xaruun, the [[Red War]] would ensue, resulting in a catastrophic defeat for the Red Legion. Now scattered and headless, many Red Legion soldiers would find themselves under the banner of the Neon Wraiths and would offer up much more of their equipment and ships to help with the cause, including some of Xaruun's former colleagues such as a then-Valus [[Forum:Primus Thru'urn|Thru'urn]], [[Forum:Kabratos, the Destroyer|Kabratos]] and a recovering [[Forum:Thumos, Blood of Phantoms|Thumos]], who was recovered by Xaruun's agents. While the Wraith's forces continued to grow in size and might, it was only after the death of [[Val Ca'uor]] when Xaruun took up the mantle of [[Dominus]] for the sake of his allies and to possibly unite more of his forces. With more and more deserters joining his cause, and more clever minds filling his ranks, more technologies rolled in including the highly advanced Desolator and Accipiter drones taken from interrogated [[Fallen]] engineers. Despite that, they would continue to build their forces around the extrasolar planets moons such as Callisto, Oberon and Pluto, keeping a close eye on the exploits of the Red Legion remnants and even encouraging much of their actions, such as covertly guiding the [[Almighty]] towards the [[Last City]].

====Dark Temptations====

===Dark Temptations===

{{Quote|[[Black Fleet|They]] have finally reared their ugly head. Whether it's a good thing or a bad thing is Xaruun's decision. Me? As long as it gets our enemies more at each other's throats, I'm more than happy.|[[Forum:Bracus Paraquos, the Entrusted|Bracus Paraquos]]}}

After the failed attempt to eradicate the Last City with the Almighty, the Neon Wraiths would observe as the [[Black Fleet]] would pass them by and begin to root themselves on some of the key planets and moons of the [[Sol System]]. Remaining ever vigilant, the Neon Wraiths would continue to remain in the shadows as the [[Pyramid]]s attempted to commune with the Guardians in spite of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen|Savathûn]]'s interference. While the forces of the Last City were engaged with all matters of Interference, the Neon Wraiths would begin to study more closely the Pyramids, still superstitious of their power. After intercepting communications on the intent of the Pyramids, the many covert research operations of the Neon Wraiths would evacuate and avoid disappearing with the worlds themselves and begin a search for the whereabouts of the disappeared ships in an effort to continue their research on their quaint technologies and powers.

====One Empire to Another====

Shortly after the disappearance of the worlds, the Neon Wraiths would renew their research with the discovery of the [[Europan Pyramid]] and the heightened activity of the [[Fallen]] around it. Uncovering the new powers of the rising [[House of Salvation]], many of the Wraith's scientists would attempt to extract as much of the new dark technologies for themselves and abduct many of the House of Salvation's engineers to assist in their weapons development, even recruiting the ambitious Fallen [[Baron]] [[Forum:Crataks, Fallen Partisan|Crataks]] to their cause at the hesitant behest of Primus Thru'urn. As such, their forces now found [[Stasis]] in their arsenal and began to practice it's capabilities extensively in secret.

With the arrival of the [[Imperial Cabal]] and the discovery of the loss of their homeworld of [[Torobatl]] to the [[Hive]], some Wraiths would run off to the promise of the [[Rite of Proving]] in an effort to fight for their Empire. Despite that, many, Xaruun included, would find the defeat at the hand of the Hive as embarrassing and as a troubling omen to the decline of the Cabal as they are now, further cementing their loyalty to the plan of ambitious vengeance against the Last City, fighting now for their own personal glory and for a chance to rally the Cabal behind them.
