History
The Scorn
Capitalizing on the lack of leadership in the post-Taken War Reef, a group of Dregs who collectively titled themselves the Scorned Barons banded together after being 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 within the Reef, degrading the once-prosperous civilization into a lawless frontier. They drove the remnants of the House of Wolves to extinction by destroying all of their remaining Servitors, and even managed to take control of a local Hive brood, with Hiraks, the Mindbender taking In Anânh, Brood Queen as his consort. Sometime before the Red War, acting Regent-Commander Petra Venj enlisted the support of the Hunter Vanguard Cayde-6, and with the assistance of a small group of his most trusted Guardians hunted down the Scorned Barons. After a final standoff, the Barons were defeated and thrown deep into the Prison of Elders, with their Archon leader, Fikrul, the Fanatic, seemingly having been killed in the conflict. The Barons bonded together here in their shared situation. At some point before the Scorn Breakout, Prince Uldren, who had been corrupted by Darkness and was working with the House of Kings, discovered the mortally wounded Fikrul. Uldren wished to save him, attracting the attention of the Taken Ahamkara Riven. Riven granted Uldren's wish, causing part of the Awoken Prince's Darkness to transfer into Fikrul's Ether, transmuting it into Dark Ether and raising Fikrul 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 would dock the King Kell of his arms and demoted Craask to Dreg status before slaughtering the entire House in a grand betrayal, as Uldren decided that the Kings were too bothersome to keep around. 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.
Overview
The Scorn are created from deceased Fallen, either recently or after repeated deaths, reanimated by Fikrul, the Fanatic and later the Witness through the use of Dark Ether and transformed into warped, undead monstrosities. They were described as being frenzied, bloodthirsty puppets that were unwaveringly loyal to the will of their master and throw themselves into combat with little care for self-preservation. This abandonment of personal safety is likely down to their capacity to resurrect from defeat unless their corpses are burned beyond recognition.

Fikrul believes that the Scorn are the natural evolution of the Fallen, and that through his leadership, the race can find immortality.

She also had a role in the Siege of Arran, where she hijacked the ship and stole its contents.
