The House of Winter are a house of the Fallen,[1] distinguishable by their pale blue cloaks. There is evidence they were present at Caracas during the Collapse.[1]
House Winter is led by their Kell, Draksis. Their Prime Servitor, Simiks Prime, is believed to have been destroyed some time ago. Their lair is in Venus, and is part of the Winter's Run Strike. With the aid of Taniks, the Scarred, House Winter has the distinction of being the only group to have successfully broken into the Prison of Elders, a maximum-security Reef prison for members of the House of Wolves.[2] The House of Winter also has interest in The Archive of the Ishtar Academy, seeking to plunder the Golden Age technology within, as well as towards the nearby Vex Citadel.[3]
History
Arriving in our system during the Collapse, Winter set about plundering the ruins of Venus and harassing surviving human settlements under their Kell, Draksis. When the Kell of Kings sent out the call to attack the City, Draksis answered, uniting with the House of Devils and Kings. In the ensuing carnage that was the Twilight Gap, the united Fallen were smashed against the City walls and forced into retreat.
Reeling from the Gap, Winter once again was forced into scavenging Venusian ruins and coming into conflict with the Vex. It is believed that some time after the battle, Winter's Servitor God, Simiks Prime, is believed to have been destroyed, though proof of its demise remains elusive.
