"They call me a madman, freak, evil they call me. EVIL. But no no no. I am the one who shall pave the way to the Eliksni’s evolution, I am. If we are to survive, we will become MORE and there is nothing that YOU can do to stop me. No, you will not stop me you are powerless. And now, you will watch as we ascend, they ALL will, as they become nothing but DUST."
— Kovik


Kovik is a major antagonist of the Rise of Iron questline of Destiny: Twisted Fate. Once an aspiring Archon of the House of Devils, Kovik would then serve as the High Priest of the Devil Splicers as well as one of its founding members alongside his colleagues Vosik and Aksis. Through his twisted experiments with SIVA, the Splicers continue to grow in power, and he has even began experimenting on Hive specimens to create the Splicer Swarm, a slave army of SIVA-augmented Hive of which he has total control over.

Biography

Life in the House of Devils

"I remember Kovik. He was one of our best minds in House Devils. A genius when it came to tech and body augmentation. Problem was, everyone was afraid of him. He was mad, and they all saw it. What caused his depravity I don’t know, but I’ll remember it. I’ll remember how it even scared me."
Phylaks, the Warrior about Kovik.

Kovik was once a Baron of the House of Devils and a member of its Splicer sect, where he often experimented with technologies and cybernetics to improve the House, working closely with two others known as Aksis and Vosik. When Vosik was wounded during the Final Attempt it was Kovik who replaced his severed arms with a single large cannon arm. The rest of the Devils often feared Kovik for the unstable tendencies he had, but he hardly cared as long as he could work.

At some later point in time, Kovik was one of the many who aspired become the next Archon of the Devils following the power struggle left behind by Riksis’s demise, alongside his two colleagues, however they would face opposition in the form of Kridis who had a greater following.

As time went on the House of Devils would only grow more desperate following the Hope-Eater Crisis, and the three searched wherever they could for anything at all that may turn their situation around. What they found was Rasputin, and it was Aksis who suggested using his technology to aid the Fallen. Kovik worked with Vosik to aid Aksis in the construction of the S.A.B.E.R.-2 to hack the Warmind’s systems and gain control. Thanks to the quick response time of the Guardians however this attempt would inevitably fail with the Devourer Shank’s destruction. Despite this, the three managed to obtain scraps of useful information they obtained while the SABER was still breaching Rasputin’s systems: a bit about a Golden Age technology known as SIVA, and a set of coordinates leading to the Dust Palace on Mars.
