Fallen

The Fallen are a nomadic race of four-armed bipedal humanoids. They are a species of pirates and mercenaries located on Earth, the Moon, and Venus, and are one of the primary antagonist races in the Destiny series.

Biology and Morphology
The Fallen are an agile six-limbed race (four arms, two legs) capable of scaling walls with ease. The race expresses a complex understanding of technology as they possess advanced armor, weapons, vehicles and space-faring capabilities.

Fallen can survive in a wide range of environments without heavy armor or complex modifications to their physiology. They travel modestly, attack swiftly, and disappear after engagement almost instantly. They are also known to stalk their enemies and use group tactics to overwhelm Guardians.

When killed, Fallen's souls are "ripped out of their body," visually appearing to "lift up and away like wisps."

Geography
While the Fallen often squat in abandoned facilities on various worlds such as Earth, the Moon, and Europa, they are nomadic and therefore have no permanent strongholds in these regions, but instead call their starships home. According to the Fallen themselves, they have claimed every planet and moon that humanity once held.

Technology
Fallen technology is highly advanced, with the possession of energy weapons, advanced armor, automated attack drones, heavy vehicles, and space faring capabilities.

Hierarchy
The Fallen are organized into distinct houses of nobility, some of which are as hostile to each other as they are to Humans, which suggests that there is brutal infighting within the species itself. In combat, Fallen warriors operate in packs led by Captains and sometimes employ small drones called Shanks and/or large spider-like war machines known as Devil Walkers. Fallen Houses are led by Kells, the masters of the massive Fallen Ketches.

Shank
Shanks are airborne drones that possess minimal intelligence, and attack in large numbers. They serve as cannon fodder.

Dreg
Dregs are the lowest ranking Fallen in the chain of command. They are thieves driven by desperation and rage. They are crafty, but tend to forfeit their position with their clattering and hissing. Dregs wield shock daggers and pistols, and can be easily distinguished from other Fallen ranks by only having two arms as opposed to the usual four.

Vandal
Vandals are of a higher rank than Dregs, with weapons capable of long-range attacks and deadlier force. The disadvantage of Vandal's powerful weapons is their requirement of a longer charge time.

Captain
Captains are the fiercest of the Fallen hierarchy, distinguished by their heavy armor, twin swords, and adorned cape. Captains have a sense of nobility about them and consider humanity to be an inferior race.

Servitor
Servitors are floating, spherical Fallen that have powerful attack capabilities, launching Void projectiles from an eye-like structure on their frames.

Kells
Kells are the leaders of the Fallen Houses, according to the Grimoire. It was they who declared that all of Humanity's territories now belong to the Fallen Houses.

Fallen Houses
Currently, five houses within the Fallen army exist. These include:

House of Devils
The House of Devils is a house located on Earth, and it is considered as "the scourge of The City." They led the battle of the Twilight Gap and the destruction of London, and are currently invading Old Russia in search of an object buried below. This house's color is red.

House of Exile
The House of Exile is a house located on the Moon; they consist of mostly outcasts and disgraced castaways, who are galvanized by pride, hate, or the desire for freedom. This house's color is green.

House of Kings
The House of Kings is a house located on Earth, but is hidden away from the eyes of the Guardians. They are the most brutal house of all the fallen, and hold rivalries with the other houses and the City alike. This house's color is yellow.

House of Winter
The House of Winter is a house located on Venus, where the group shows much interest on the ruins of the Academy along the Shattered Coast. They also show some interest in the Vex Citadel. This house's color is blue.

House of Wolves
The House of Wolves is a house located in the Reef, where they operate as royal guards of the Queen. They can be seen standing beside the Queen's throne, defending her from the Guardian while they speak. This house's color is teal.
