===Terror of the Reef===
Capitalizing on the lack of leadership in the post-[[Taken War]] Reef, a group of [[Dreg]]s who collectively titled themselves the "Scorned Barons" banded together after they were cast out from the [[House of Exile]]. They waged a civil war against the Fallen Houses for practicing the old Eliksni ways and terrorized [[Awoken]] settlements, degrading the once prosperous civilization into a lawless frontier. The terror they unleashed had almost grown as powerful as any Kell even having driven the House of Wolves to extinction through the destruction of all their Servitors. They even successfully allied with a local [[Hive]] brood when [[Hiraks, the Mindbender]] took [[In Anânh, Brood Queen]] as his consort.
Sometime after the [[Red War]], [[Hunter]] [[Vanguard]] [[Cayde-6]] gathered a small group of his most trusted [[Guardians]] and, with the assistance of acting-Regent-Commander [[Petra Venj]], hunted down the Scorned Barons. At a final standoff, the Barons were defeated and those not killed were thrown deep within the [[Prison of Elders]]. Only one at the scene, their Archon, [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]], managed to escape.<ref name="GIBarons">[https://www.gameinformer.com/2018/07/05/these-are-the-eight-barons-who-helped-kill-cayde-6-in-destiny-2-forsaken '''Game Informer''': ''These Are The Eight Barons Who Helped Kill Cayde-6 In Destiny 2: Forsaken'']</ref> The Barons bonded together here in their shared situation.<ref>''Game Informer #104: At the Crossroads''</ref>

===Rise of the Scorn===
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, raising him as the first of the Scorn.

Fikrul and Uldren allied with six Fallen [[Dreg]]s cast out from the House of Exile, who collectively titled themselves the Scorned Barons. With the help of the Barons, Uldren usurped [[Craask, Kell of Kings]] and immediately took 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.
