===Early history===
Eramis was an Eliksni born of the planet [[Riis]] during an era of peace and prosperity when the [[Traveler|Great Machine]] uplifted their civilization much like the [[Golden Age]] of [[Humanity]]. During this time, she and her mate [[Athrys]] had many hatchlings together, and she was a friend of [[Variks]]. However, their prosperity ended with the arrival of the [[Black Fleet]] which brought the [[Darkness]] upon the Eliksni in a massive extinction event called the [[Whirlwind]]. With the Great Machine having fled during the ongoing chaos, Eramis was one of the few Eliksni having witness it abandoning her people and left [[Riis]] to its own destruction.  
Eramis was born on [[Riis]] during the era of peace and prosperity brought about when the [[Traveler|Great Machine]] uplifted their civilization, much like the [[Golden Age]] of [[Humanity]]. During this time, she and her mate [[Athrys]] had many hatchlings together, and she was a friend of [[Variks]]. However, their world's prosperity ended with the arrival of the [[Black Fleet]], which brought about a cataclysmic event called the [[Whirlwind]] that destroyed Eliksni civilization. Eramis was one of the few Eliksni who witnessed the Traveler abandoning her people as it left [[Riis]] to its own destruction.  


Eramis survived the Whirlwind consumed with rage for the Great Machine. Starting a new life as a nomadic Fallen of the [[House of Devils]], Eramis elevated herself to the position of [[Baroness]] and earned the moniker of the Shipstealer. She would later lead the Fallen charge against the [[Light]]-bearing [[Guardian]]s of the [[Last City]] during the climactic battle of [[Twilight Gap]], slaughtering hundreds of Lightbearers in their final deaths.

===Reuniting the Devils===
===Reuniting the Devils===
Vanguard intelligence on Eramis considered her the most likely candidate for Fallen reunification, describing her as trying to rally together a new House of Devils. Seven months after escaping from the Prison of Elders, a large amount of Fallen united under Eramis attempted to enter the old [[Tower]] and steal [[Outbreak Prime|an old weapon forged two years ago]] by [[The Guardian]], presumably to use the [[SIVA]] within. They were thwarted, however, thanks to a [[Zero Hour|joint effort]] between the Guardian and [[Mithrax, the Forsaken]]. Due to the failure, she abandoned the House of Devils banner and united the Fallen under the [[House of Salvation]].

She would later abandon the Devil banner, proclaiming herself as the [[Kell]] of the [[House of Salvation]] in the shadow of a [[Pyramids|Pyramid]] in [[Europa]]. This empire consists of the former Houses of Devils, Wolves and Dusk. They began utilizing the [[Darkness]] as a means to destroy the [[Guardian]]s and [[The Last City]], going against the Fallen's traditional rules and ideals by willingly using and harnessing the very thing that [[Whirlwind|destroyed]] their [[Riis|home]].

Following the failed attempt to steal Outbreak Prime and the SIVA it contained, Eramis abandoned the House of Devils banner and united former members of the Devils, Wolves and Dusk Houses under the [[House of Salvation]], with Eramis proclaiming herself as Kell.

Unfortunately for Eramis, Variks would learn of her hateful plans, disappointed that Eramis had turned their shared dream of rebuilding elisksni civilization in peace on Europa into an opportunity to forge an empire for herself. Desperate to save his people, Variks had stolen one of Eramis's Splinters of Darkness and sought a means to contact the Guardians to warn them of Eramis's threat. Though nearly killed with the Dark Kell caught him to him, Variks was successful in getting the Guardian to aid him in combating Eramis and her House of Salvation. However, Eramis's use of Stasis. along with that of her lieutenants, proved too much for the Guardians to handle, forcing them to agree to work with the [[Exo Stranger]] in wielding Stasis themselves.
