The '''House of Devils''' is a noble [[House]] of [[Eliksni]] who originated from their homeworld of [[Riis]]. They were once a peaceful House who experienced a time of prosperity when Eliksni society was graced by the [[Traveler]], who they worshipped as the "Great Machine". The various noble [[Fallen]] Houses controlled multiple star systems and coordinated themselves into societal roles such as builders, caretakers, physicians, negotiators, weavers and warriors.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], PlayStation 4, [https://youtu.be/yvwGdfOlEXQ| Variks Dialogue]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2016/4/12)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] PlayStation 4, [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/last-battle Last Battle]''</ref> While their counterparts the [[House of Wolves]] were once known as Gentle Weavers,<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], PlayStation 4, [[Lord_of_Wolves#Lore_(Destiny_2)|Lord of Wolves'']]</ref> the House of Devils were once known as the "House of Dancers", and were renowned for their skill with machines and their generosity to those in need.<ref>'''Bungie (2022/8/30)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Plunder]], PlayStation 4, [[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/i-the-long-drift?highlight=house+of+dancers|Above all Else: I - The Long Drift'']]</ref> | The '''House of Devils''' is a noble [[House]] of [[Eliksni]] who originated from their homeworld of [[Riis]], who where then known as the "House of Dancers."<ref>'''Bungie (2022/8/23)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Plunder]] - [[Lore:Above All Else#I._The_Long_Drift|Above All Else I: The Long Drift]]''</ref> They were once a peaceful House who experienced a time of prosperity when Eliksni society was graced by the [[Traveler]], who they worshipped as the "Great Machine".

The Devils were among those involved in a period of rising tensions and infighting between the Houses, which culminated in a conflict known as the [[Edge Wars]], eventually ended by the [[House of Kings]] and [[House of Judgement]] to usher in a new age of prosperity for the Eliksni. However, peace ended once again with the arrival of the [[Darkness]] in their system, which destroyed their society in a cataclysmic event known as the [[Whirlwind]].<ref name= "Whirl">'''Bungie (2015/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]], PlayStation 4, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/The_Queen#Variks,_The_Loyal|Variks, The Loyal]]''</ref> In the wake of this catastrophy, the [[Traveler]] fled their homeworld of Riis.[[Eramis, the Shipstealer]], a member of the House of Devils, was among the Eliksni that watched helplessly as the Great Machine abandoned them in their time of need.<ref>'''Bungie (2020/11/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Beyond Light]], PlayStation4, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Once-Shipstealer#VI._The_Herald|The Herald]]</ref><ref> '''YouTube (2020/11/10)''', ''[https://youtu.be/-j_6bTbkLYw The Whirlwind Cutscene]''</ref> | The Devils were among those involved in a period of rising tensions and infighting between the Houses, which culminated in a conflict known as the [[Edge Wars]], eventually ended by the [[House of Kings]] and [[House of Judgement]] to usher in a new age of prosperity for the Eliksni.
