Variks witnessed the Uprising on Cybele under [[Skolas]]. Unable to abide the attack on civilians, he contacted the [[crow]]s and helped put an end to the uprising, with Skolas being captured (It's likely that Variks already hated Skolas, as he claims he is responsible for the removal of his arms). From that day, Variks served the Queen, in an effort to keep the House of Judgment and its ancient traditions alive in the face of increasing degradation under the rule of the Kells.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', | Variks witnessed the Uprising on Cybele under [[Skolas]].

During the opening of the [[Red War]], Variks was in the prison of elders and was forced to watch as the [[Red Legion]] cut a swath into the [[Solar System]].

Variks wishes to see the Fallen restored to lawful, peaceful rule. He harbors some lingering jealousy for the other races, especially humanity, as the [[Traveler]] had chosen them for its patronage and left the Fallen with nothing, not even memories of former glory. But, despite this opaque behavior towards the Guardians, Variks respects them by the reciprocal ethic of honor, bravery and sacrifice which he would revise for his brethren.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', | Variks wishes to see the Fallen restored to lawful, peaceful rule.
