Taniks

==Biography==
Taniks was a mercenary among the Fallen and is not directly affiliated with any one House, instead offering his services to the highest bidder. He is responsible for the release of Aksor from the Prison of Elders, as well as the murder of Andal Brask, the Hunter Vanguard preceding Cayde-6.List of Grimoire Cards/Taniks, the Scarred
It is believed by the Fallen that he is undying, a living huntsman whose physical self is joined with a mix of technologies, each pilfered from legendary treasure troves. But treasure is not the only currency of value to Taniks. His true ambitions rest in the challenge of the feats in front of him, and the rewards simply allow him to exist free of any Kell’s rule.
