Stationed on Molech, the House was the most technologically backwards on the planet and only possessed six Knight suits. They were based in the under-realms of Molech, hundreds of kilometers beneath the surface of the planet from the Pyros Mountain. These realms were built during the Dark Age of Technology and by the time of the Great Crusade were filled with many savage beasts. Thus Kaushik dedicated themselves to fighting these creatures for both sport and food. Over time Kaushik became incredibly insular, only leaving their fortress to hunt and occasionally visit Molech's capital of Lupercalia. Their Sacristans have little idea how their Knight armor works and rely heavily on religious rituals to awaken their machines. However their pilot bonds with their suits are some of the closest scene, with a condition of stripped emotions known as the Great Quiet affecting many of House Kaushik's nobles.[2]
The House was ultimately destroyed in the Traitor Invasion of Molech.[1]
