The Taken Fallen
While there are no Taken Dregs, Taken Shanks or Taken Servitors, There are Taken Vandals and Taken Captains.
The Taken Vandals can create bubbles where no shots, grenades etc can enter, similar to the Defender Titan's Ward of Dawn super and the Taken Captains launch large bubbles of darkness which temporarily blind the player and deals high damage.
