The '''Scorn''' are a faction of undead [[Fallen]] spawned by [[Dark Ether|Darkness-tainted Ether]]. Formerly led by [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]], and [[Uldren Sov]], they orchestrated a massive breakout from the [[Prison of Elders]] and murdered [[Cayde-6]] in the process, and have since spread throughout much of the [[Reef]] and the [[Dreaming City]]. Most recently, they have come under the sway of the [[The Witness|Witness]] and its [[Disciples of the Witness|followers]], using them as pawns against the [[Guardian]]s and the turncoat [[Hive]] God, [[Savathûn]].

At some point following the [[Taken War]], [[Prince Uldren]], who had been corrupted by Darkness and was working with the [[House of Kings]], discovered a mortally wounded [[Fikrul]]. Uldren wished to save him, attracting the attention of the [[Taken]] [[Ahamkara]] [[Riven]]. Riven granted Uldren's wish, and part of Uldren's Darkness transferred into Fikrul's Ether, transmutating into [[Dark Ether]] which raised him as the first of the Scorn.
At some point prior to the [[Hunt for the Scorn|Scorn Breakout]], [[Prince Uldren]], who had been corrupted by Darkness and was working with the [[House of Kings]], discovered a mortally wounded [[Fikrul]]. Uldren wished to save him, attracting the attention of the [[Taken]] [[Ahamkara]] [[Riven]]. Riven granted Uldren's wish, and part of Uldren's Darkness transferred into Fikrul's Ether, transmutating into [[Dark Ether]] which raised him as the first of the Scorn.


Fikrul and Uldren became allies and worked together to usurp [[Craask, Kell of Kings]], immediately taking over the House of Kings; Fikrul docked the latter of his arms and demoted Craask to Dreg status before slaughtering the House in a grand betrayal as Uldren decides that the Kings are too bothersome for his ambitions. With the use of [[Dark Ether]], Fikrul raised the deceased Kings as a new army of undead Fallen to lead, which became known collectively as the Scorn.

Despite the return of Elykris and Fikrul, the Scorn's power and numbers appear to be unknown as [[The Drifter]] mentions that Scorn are all over the place and that they must be breeding and have appeared in places like [[Titan (moon)|Titan]] and [[Nessus]] and other places in the system.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/scorned-bow?highlight=Scorn Scorned Bow]</ref>

Even after the events of the Tangled Shore, they still managed to keep their numbers up with newly risen Scorn. There are also a considerable number of them that are revealed on the [[Moon]] as the [[Pyramid (Luna)|Lunar Pyramid]] would utilize several Scorn Nightmares when the Guardians went in pursuit of the [[Nightmare of the Fanatic]].<ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmX5DNPDfOE&t Scorn on the Moon]</ref>

===Assaulting the Blind Well===
===Assaulting the Ley Lines===
After the [[Endless Night]], a large number of Scorn would attack the Ley Lines situated in and around the Dreaming City. Led by [[Kruutiks, Reefbane]], they would also attack the Blind Well directly. Even worse, they seem to have made a pact of nonaggression with the Hive and Taken, if not an outright alliance. They would also somehow gain access to the Ascendant Realm and take over the [[Shattered Realm|Debris of Dreams]] located in the Shattered Realm. After multiple expeditions to the Shattered Realm, it was learned the Scorn seemed to be evolving. They were seen to have been mining Ascendent energy from the Realm, as well as engaging in a fighting pit that appeared to run on Sword Logic rules. The latter of which heavily suggests the Scorn are developing their own culture. Eventually, when the day of the [[Exorcism]] arrived, the Scorn participated in the final assault alongside the Hive and Taken but were ultimately driven off.

===In the Witch Queen's Realm===
===In the Witch Queen's Realm===
Following the Scorn's failure to seize control over the Dreaming City or capture [[Savathûn]], the Scorn were driven out of the Reef, but would soon reappear in [[Savathûn's Throne World]], looking to claim the Witch Queen's realm as their own. As the Guardian conducted their missions within the Throne World, looking to find out how Savathûn managed to control the Light, they noticed that the Scorn operated much more organized than previously encountered, leading Ikora to believe that the Scorn serve a new [[Rhulk, Disciple of the Witness|master]]. Throughout their missions against the [[Lucent Brood]], the Scorn would attempt to impede the Guardian or clash with the Lightbearing Hive in their attempts to claim territory but ultimately failed in their efforts.

After the Guardian succeeded in defeating Savathûn and thwarting her attempt in sealing the Traveler away within her Throne World, her Ghost, [[Immaru]], managed to escape and would lead the Lucent Brood in her stead, organizing the Hive in combating the Scorn who are looking to take advantage of the loss of their queen. This forces the Guardians to intervene before either faction could gain any significant ground. However, during their investigations in Savathûn's Throne World, the Guardians discover a Sunken Pyramid in the outskirts, with legions of Scorn guarding it. They soon learn that the Scorn's master: [[Rhulk]], one of the first [[Disciples]] of the [[Witness]], lies trapped within by the Witch Queen herself. However, with Savathûn gone, Rhulk was poised to break free but Mara Sov became aware of this and warned the Guardians of the danger he posed. The Guardians would form a [[Raid]] [[fireteam]] and storm the [[Sunken Pyramid]], facing heavy resistance from empowered Scorn, including one notable Scorn Abomination called [[The Caretaker]]. Despite their efforts to protect their master, the Guardians managed to traverse deeper into the Pyramid even as the Scorn fought alongside the Taken. Ultimately confronting Rhulk at the center of the Pyramid armed with immense power and the Scorn's support, the Guardians slew the imprisoned Disciple, leading the Pyramid to fracture and the Scorn to retreat.

Despite the Guardian's victory against the Disciple of the Witness, the Scorn were unwilling to abandon the Sunken Pyramid, hoping to claim it for their own and continue Rhulk's experiments in infusing Hive Worms on other living beings. Mara Sov became aware of this and informed the Guardians, leading them to [[Preservation|enter the Pyramid]] again and clear out the Scorn's presence, as well as gather any useful secrets within.

===Salvation's Punishment===
===Salvation's Punishment===
Though the Scorn failed in aiding Calus in seizing control over the Lunar Pyramid, the Scorn would in time serve a new master in preparing for the Witness's return, the Hive God of War, Xivu Arath. To supplement her forces, Xivu Arath consolidated her Wrathborn forces in seizing control over the Warsat Network as [[Rasputin]] remained incapacitated since its failed effort to stop the Black Fleet's initial arrival. To aid her efforts, Xivu Arath assumed control over most of what was left of the [[House of Salvation]], after their leader, [[Eramis]], failed in her mission to claim the relics containing the pieces of the dead Disciple, [[Nezarec]] before the Guardians. To further punish Eramis for her failure, Xivu Arath killed a number of Salvation Fallen and resurrected them as Scorn, some of whom Eramis had known personally.

To further punish Eramis for her failure, Xivu Arath killed a number of Salvation Fallen and resurrected them as Scorn, some of whom Eramis had known personally.


Fighting alongside the War God's Wrathborn forces, the Scorn would seek out one of the Warmind's creators, [[Clovis Bray I]], and subjugate him to grant Xivu Arath full control over the Warsat Network and turn its arsenal on the Last City. However, the Guardians, Ana Bray and Osiris also sought out Clovis to conscript his aid in restoring Rasputin. After rescuing the scientist, Clovis would direct the Guardians to locate the [[submind]]s that have the data needed to repair Rasputin and regain his control over the network. One submind, [[Malahayati]], was located on Luna, within a Seraph vault and it was guarded by the Scorn, led by [[Once-Phyris, the Exhumed Tether]], a Captain and Marksmen that once served under Eramis. Despite Phyris' efforts, the Guardians slayed her and recovered the submind's data. Further, Mara theorizes that without Phyris acting as a nexus of control, her hold over the Scorn on Luna will weaken for now.

Another former lieutenant of Eramis' would be resurrected as Scorn to serve Xivu Arath and the Witness's plans: [[Praksis, the Technocrat]] now dubbed as the Defiled, much to the Shipstealer's dismay. Praksis would be charged with guarding the Nexus Control hub of the Seraph Station, clashing with the Guardians as they infiltrated the space station to plant a virus and gather intel regarding a Clovis Bray weapon. Despite Praksis's efforts and Stasis powers, the Guardians would slay him again.

Despite Praksis's efforts and Stasis powers, the Guardians would slay him again.
===Experiments of Light===
During the aeons, Savathûn had amassed several specimens within her [[Savathûn's Spire|Spire]] and [[Altars of Summoning]], including several powerful Scorn, to study their ability of resurrection to see if it was similar to the Necromantic powers [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|Nokris]] wielded. She would also conduct various experiments, which continued even in her absence. Vanguard forces would [[Savathûn's Spire (activity)|storm]] these [[Altars of Summoning (activity)|areas]] to harvest the Scorn as tithes to [[Clash of the Hive Gods|empower]] [[Eris Morn]] into a God of Vengeance to rival Xivu Arath.
===Hunting Riven's eggs===
After Xivu Arath was banished from her [[Black Terrace|throne world]], the Scorn would continue to spread corruption in the Dreaming City. Managing to find a way into [[Riven's Lair]], the [[Locus of Subjugation]] would lead Scorn in an attempt to steal an egg of Riven. But, they would be killed by a Guardian fireteam.
During the Dark Age, a castle belonging to a [[Warlord]] named [[Naeem]] was attacked by the House of Kings, with the Warlord herself being killed in the process. With her dying breath, she wished for vengeance. Many years later, after the Witness entered the Traveler and Xivu Arath was banished from her throne world, the remains of the [[Ahamkara]] [[Hefnd]] would grant this wish after luring the now leaderless Taken to the castle. He fed on their desire for a purpose to corrupt the dead House of Kings into Scorn. Those resurrected in the castle seemed to develop a culture surrounding Hefnd's bones, placing them in shrines across the castle and worshipping Chieftain Totems that held bone fragments within Taken Blights.
The news of these Scorn on Earth would eventually catch the attention of Fikrul, who has been leading a crew of his own Scorn independent from the Witness after fleeing the Tangled Shore. Aboard a stolen Ketch, he tasked five powerful Chieftains dubbed Knights to bring the Scorn to them before the Witness could claim them. However, the Knights would be broken and fall under the control of Hefnd. They would fight alongside the Dragon's Scorn and the Taken, only to be cut down by a Guardian fireteam sent to investigate the ruins.
When the Techeuns pulled the final egg out of the Ley Lines and into the [[Caliginous Expanse]] within the court of Mara Sov, the Scorn would infiltrate the Awoken Queen's court with the purpose of retrieving it. However they would quickly come into conflict with the Guardian, who would slay the Plaguewielders and enter the portal into the Catacombs. It becomes apparent that tho most of these Scorn were raised by the Witness, some of them bear Fikrul's mark. Upon arriving at the Caliginous Expanse, the Guardian engages with [[Elikaa, the Pale Rot]], who was attempting to make a wish using the final egg. Despite it's resilience, it is unable to defeat the Guardian and is slain in a fearsome battle. Successfully retrieving the final egg, the Guardian makes the fifteenth wish to pursue the Witness. Despite their failure to make the wish, the Scorn would continue their assault within Riven's Lair, now being directed by the agents of Fikrul.
