A

#### Alomar

"Wolf Kell Reborn" - Created by Alloknax35756. Alomar (aka Alokirasks) is an Ancient Riis-born Eliksni. Kell of the House of Reborn Wolves and a wielder of Stasis, he is stubborn but honorable. Wielding the exotic greatsword **Raiju's Fang**, he is known throughout the system as being one of the most fair of Kells, an Eliksni of his word. He has never broken an oath. He bears a special hatred of the Hive and Taken, as his father was Taken by Oryx. As a Kell, he is fully capable of battling a Lightbearer or Darkbearer and winning, utilizing Stasis in a deadly combination with his Arc greatsword.

#### Anax

"The Dragonfly" - Created by Jay2KWinger. A Hunter known for rocking the Dragonfly Regalia armor set, Anax has a fondness for exploration, but it's as much for personal glory as for scouting purposes; Anax wants to be known as "the one who got there first." She will find the most hard-to-reach places and leave a sign or marker bearing a stylized dragonfly design, often with the words "Anax Was Here." She and her Ghost Cyrano frequently run through the Shattered Throne after the curse resets, so as to try to put down Dûl Incaru as soon as possible. Anax is the proud owner of an **Izanagi's Burden**.

#### Arion-5

*Trailblazing Hunter* - Created by Aerd\_Gander. An open-minded Exo Hunter who was resurrected in the Cosmodrome just days before the start of the Endless Night. Arion-5 is a charitable Guardian, known to always go to bat for those he calls friends. He always pays his dues, and earning his loyalty means you will always have a man in your corner, no matter what. Some see him as naive or reckless, and he'll often relent that point, but the results speak for themselves: Arion-5 is adaptable, forward-thinking, and tenacious. He lacks the prejudices most other Guardians struggle with when it comes to the Eliksni and counts some among his friends.

B

#### Berkris

*Armless Mother* - Created by Aerd\_Gander. A Riis-born Eliksni of House Light, Berkris remembers the pink skies of their homeworld. Docked of all four arms by a cruel captain, Berkris is still recovering, having been catatonic until only recently. Her daughter Dythrys and son Tarrikhs often accompany her in the medical ward of the Eliksni Quarter. She remains wary of Guardians, especially those who flout the mark of the Iron Banner, oftentimes projecting her own guilt for her actions during the Dark Age onto them, though she is attempting to learn to forgive. With the help of a young City girl, Trish Nguyen, Berkris is on a path toward peace with humanity, and with herself.

#### Boltzmann

*Reclusive Sniper* - Created by Iron-Tiger. In his first life, he was a sniper. One of the best in his unit until the Russian Army eviscerated the Austro-Hungarian Army in the Brusilov offensive of 1916. He spent 10 years along in the wilderness of Galicia, dying dozens of times to the elements. He was eventually able to reach the City, but that lifestyle does not appeal to him. He returned to the place he had made his home for a decade and resumed where he left off. A bit eccentric, he has no sense of humor, almost never talks, gets hyper-fixated on tasks, and apart from his Ghost, he actively seeks out complete isolation from others.

The creator says writers may add whatever traits they want.

#### Bracus Gaal'matel

*Imperial Ally* - Created by Jay2KWinger. Gaal'matel-- "**Galm**" to most Guardians and Tower-workers-- has become a more frequent sight about the Tower in the City, one of various Imperial liaisons that have worked alongside Guardians in recent operations. Galm respects what the Light can do and holds no ill-will toward Guardians in spite of losses they've inflicted on his people. He holds Lord Saladin (Valus Forge, as Cabal call him) in high esteem. Prior to arrival in the system, Bracus Galm had participated in many campaigns and operations in the name of the Cabal Empire, ribbons and markings of which adorn his breastplate and left shoulder pauldron; however, all but three have been struck through with black slash-marks, indicating personal dis-acknowledgment of these due to their association with the regimes of Calus or Ghaul. The remaining three were all undertaken under Empress Caiatl's reign, in their clashes with the forces of Xivu Arath, the Lucent Hive, and Calus's Loyalists.

C

#### Charlie Tango

*Mercenary, Thief, Smuggler* - Created by Jay2KWinger. If you want to get your hands on something, you contact Charlie Tango. That's not his real name, but Charlie cheerfully disregards complaints. He is very good at what he does, and his natural charm has gotten him out of some trouble-- after he stole a shipment from The Spider and sold it back to him, he impressed the Fallen crime boss enough to be spared. His skill is great enough that the Vanguard suspects that he is secretly a Lightbearer.

D

#### Deputy Commander Hammon

*Wall Security Chief* - Created by OverAcanthocephala95. Hammon is a 205 year old man of Slavic descent, with a stark white mustache high and tight haircut, muscular build, and a height of 6 feet. Hammon works with Titans and 99-40 frames to keep the City safe day in and day out. He has stood watch over the wall for over 160 years, seeing it fall briefly to the Cabal, but this did not deter him from his watch! Hammon is a very serious man (with a heart of gold) who never settled down to have a family. He tried once, but a Fallen raiding party had other plans. He has taken a surprising approach of open arms to the House of Light, giving up his hatred with his older age.

E

#### Eurys & Kriksis

*Facets of Light* - Created by Aerd\_Gander. Risen on Europa from the victims of a Vex attack, these two Eliksni Guardians share a single Ghost between them. Their anomalous resurrection has led to much controversy regarding the nature of Guardian selection. Some still claim their existence is mere hearsay and Vanguard propaganda. Attempts to recreate their unique Prismatic Archon maneuver among Lightbearing humanoids has borne no result, perhaps linked to their usage of a single Ghost. In life, they were the young daughters of Berkris; as Guardians, they've inherited their mother's fearsome will to fight. They are strongly bonded with the Guardian Arion-5, who retrieved them from Europa and unquestioningly guided them back to the Last City.

Eurys is capable of using Charged Melee abilities. Kriksis is able to use Grenade abilities. Both can cast Rifts independently, but have to be together to form the Prismatic Archon super, a large projection of whatever elemental Light they are wielding in the shape of an Archon Priest. Both are classified as "Warlock," despite their unique abilities. For some reason, they cannot access their super while using Stasis, so they usually stick to Light subclasses.

F

#### Finch Roger

*Crucible Showboat* - Created by Cheetahofthewind13. A human Hunter known for knife tricks and his for-show rivalry among Titans, especially the Titan Jackal, Rhino-3. A showboat in the Crucible, Roger is a skilled tracker out in the wilds. The last member of his fireteam, his best friend Grey went MIA and his lover Quinn was RTL. His optimistic outlook keeps him going as to keep hope for the citizens of the Last City.

H

#### Hecate

*The Dark Warlock* - Created by Polaris328. Previously a Hidden agent and best friend of Aunor Mahal, and her boyfriend Polaris, Hecate has since been corrupted by the Darkness and is currently seeking allies to help her eradicate every intelligent species from Sol besides humans, Exos, and Awoken. She is an extremely adept Stasis user and is currently on the record as dead. Only Polaris, Aunor, and their closest allies know the truth, though some eye-witnesses have reported seeing her around Sol. If you see her, escape is your best and arguably only options.

The creator has the following restrictions on this character: Do not redeem or capture.

K

#### Kirtriks & Tommy

*Precocious Children* - Created by Samus159. This pair became best friends after the Endless Night. Bonded through a mutual love of tinkering with machinery and exploring, these two are often spotted together, trying out their newest invention/toy, or crawling through areas they probably shouldn't be, looking for secrets and adventure. They can be a nuisance, but they're good kids at heart, just trying to have some fun.

L

#### Loveks, the Light-Hunter

*Fallen Assassin* - Created by Jay2KWinger. Loveks' past remains something of a mystery-- it is unclear which House he belonged to prior to the consolidation of House Dusk-- but he is renowned for killing several Guardians across the system. He wears Ghost shell fragments on a cord around his neck, as trophies. Loveks wields a polearm with a spear on one end, and a hook on the other. He joined the House of Salvation and is a Stasis user.

#### Luna

*The Prophesized Flower* - Created by RewsterSause. An Awoken Hunter of unknown origins and Revenant-19's adoptive daughter, Luna was found near the Shard of the Traveler in the EDZ, in the same place Guardians found Hawkmoon. She was found by Revenant-19 and was merely a child at the time. It is still unknown if she was resurrected as a child, as Shin Malphur was, or if there is something deeper at play. She's received visions from the Traveler in the form of dreams, guiding her to Old Seattle to find her Ghost by showing her a dream of a stag (representing Revenant-19) guiding her to a flower (her Ghost). She considers Eris Morn a "mother figure," and wields Sai Mota's knife.

M

#### Millicent "Millie" Walden

*Vanguard Transcriber* - Created by Jay2KWinger. Millie is a Lightless civilian worker for the Vanguard and Praxic Order. She works as a general clerk and secretary, and does transcripts for various intercepted communications and other audio recordings. Her ID tag in transcripts and internal communications is MIL-921.

N

#### Nora

*Teenager with a Heart of Gold* - Created by Polaris328. Another of Polaris's friends, Nora is a 15 year old girl living in the Last City alongside her mother and father. After the Red War, they fell on hard times, and the family was homeless for years, with Nora's older brother taking his own life during that time. Nora was kidnapped by a Dark Guardian named Jacen shortly before the Traveler's reformation. Since then, the Vanguard has hooked them up with an apartment and well-paying jobs at Polaris's request. She is a staunch supporter of the Eliksni refugees that arrived recently and dreams of helping the City's people someday. She's also a frequent patron of Brask's Keep, though of course she doesn't have any alcoholic drinks. She just goes because she's nosy and likes to hear stories and secrets from drunk Guardians.

P

#### **Polaris**

*The Prince of the Sky -* Created by Polaris328. A popular Hunter and the only risen Ahamkara on record, though his true species is kept secret, only being known by himself, his closest allies, and the Vanguard. Polaris is the Young Wolf of Iteration-8646, but is a normal (albeit powerful and famous) Guardian in other continuities. He's an unofficial captain of House Light, having wrested control of a Ketch later named the *Northstar* from House Salvation and the old crews*.* Well-known for a variety of reasons, Polaris is a man of many talents, including his mastery of both the Light and Darkness. His feats include many campaigns against the Hive, Vex, and Taken, as well as being one of the first Guardians to adopt Stasis. He is famously associated with the hand cannon known as Hawkmoon.

The creator has the following restrictions on this character: do not (permanently) kill, capture, or corrupt.

R

#### Revenant-19

*Haunted Iron Lord* - Created by RewsterSause. An Exo Warlock hailing from a time long forgotten, Revenant seeks to destroy the Hive and all those responsible for the deaths of his love, Sai Mota. Despite being a former Iron Lord and student of Lord Felwinter, Revenant is on very unstable ground with Lord Saladin. Fewer have seen more events than him, some of which include the Battle of Six Fronts, Site 6, Twilight Gap, and even surviving the Great Disaster. Although his demeanor may be as cold as the Stasis he uses, the very few that are close to him know that he has a certain weakness.

#### Rudra Patel

*Owner of Brask's Keep* - Created by OverAcanthocephala95. Rudra is a 150 year old man (remembering that Human lifespan is now tripled) who comes from indian descent. He himself is a bit of a silver fox rocking the amazing facial hair our brothers from India can produce, large white beard/mustache combo. He is average height and build. Rudra has been living in the City all of his life. Being born in the City he grew up seeing all the amazing feats the Guardians had pulled off. He was crushed when Andal Brask was killed by Taniks. Being stricken with heart ache, being saved by Brask when he was out hunting in the wilds when he was younger, he decided to do the best thing he could do, open a bar! He now lives his life serving both Guardian, Humanity, and now Eliksni with his frames. He lives happily married to Binit, 80 years short, and is the father of Estaa and Darsh, daughter and son.

##### Ein & Steign

*Workers of Brask's Keep* - Created by OverAcanthocephala95. These two 99-40's where picked up by Rudra a long time ago, they have been modified and "updated" many times over. Rudra relies on these frames to keep up the day to day duties of running the bar. Guardians often bring in spare parts for Rudra to work on upkeep for them, Ein and Steign greatly appreciate this, only because Rudra does!

S

#### Shikar, the Patient Eye

*Red Legion Sniper* - Created by Jay2KWinger. A Cabal Psion, Shikar earned infamy during the Red War for hunting Lightless Guardians in the Last City, credited for at least ten final deaths during that time. Making Shikar visually distinct is tattoo work around his eye. Since the downfall of the Red Legion, Shikar has become something of a mercenary, and has not sworn allegiance to either Caiatl's Cabal Ascendency or Calus' Loyalist Legion.

#### Stella Ivankova

*Bizarre Captain* - Created by Aerd\_Gander. A human Hunter with a tendency toward the eccentric, Stella is known around the tower for her odd behavior. She's always willing to help out New Lights, and has a soft spot for the Crow, who she views as a student in the ways of the Hunter. Young Guardians be warned, her methods of instruction are unpredictable, and you're just as likely to get a lesson on how powerful the Tower fans are as you are to find out how to maintain a good sight picture. More often than not she bears the cloak of a Nightstalker, but has embraced Stasis as well. She is often seen walking the Eliksni quarter and offering aid to the alien residents.

T

#### Tajiri Yoshitsune

*Peddler of Shady Wares* - Created by Jay2KWinger. There are many places to get contraband of any stripe in the system. The Spider is obviously the most successful, but if one doesn't want to deal with him, then Tajiri is probably your next best go-to. He collects his wares from various different sources, usually thieves that need to unload their stolen goods before the authorities catch up. If you need something that you can't acquire through legitimate means, Tajiri's a good middleman as well. He will strike a hard bargain-- "if you're coming to me, it's because you've tried everywhere else"-- but he is adamant about never revealing who sold him his goods. Tajiri operates mainly out of an old cargo freighter that he usually keeps out at the Sol-Earth L2 point, but he'll move around as necessary to avoid notice.

#### Tarl Hauer

*Warlock with Regrets* - Created by KhazemiDulkana. Alcoholic to an absurd degree. Kind of older, but not elderly (in modern lifespan terms he'd be like 55). Was once a Crucible superstar, but was power-crept by the younger set and now is a bit of a bitter troublemaker.

#### Thornton-13

*Exo on a Mission* - Created by TapeStealer. It's unclear how old Thornton-13 is, he's quite tight-lipped about it, though he freely admits to being active during the Red War, fighting Eliksni raiders in his presumed homeland of Lochaber. He's been known to dabble with all elements of the light, and even used Stasis briefly, but has an affinity for Solar, which goes well with his preference for long range weapons. He's known for being extremely jovial and charismatic, able to rally a crowd on a moment's notice, when asked about the origin of this talent, he brushes it off with comments about "old habits" and changes the subject. Recently he's gained notoriety for his exploits in the hunt for Mara Sov's lost tech witches, which have caught the attention of many.

V

#### Varison, the Stalking Mind

*Strange Hobgoblin* - Created by Jay2KWinger. A unique Hobgoblin Vex frame, Varison has only been sighted a handful of times, usually in the vicinity of important Vex installations, manifesting to defend them from the conflicts of other races. Varison has a camouflage of sorts, in that its frame tends to blend in with Vex architecture, making it difficult to spot until it moves.

#### Viper-7

"Scorn's Bane" - Created by YinToYang. An Exo Hunter well known among all who is often seen in the Hangar of the Tower when off mission feeding the Colonel and chatting with Amanda Holliday and Saint-14. He's close friends with Revenant-19 and trained Luna. His most famous exploit has landed him the title Scorn's Bane where he went dark shortly after the announced death of Cayde-6 and went on a one man massacre in both the Tangled Shore and Dreaming City silently hunting and killing over 10,000 Scorn(some possibly revived repeatedly by Fikrul) with his Subtle Calamity Bow. Personality wise he's very jovial and fun but carries a lot of weight personally trying to fill in Cayde's shoes with the Hunter's lacking a proper Vanguard Leader. Despite his humorous personality when push comes to shove, in the heat of any moment Viper can be trusted to strike with lethal precision. He's trained in all Hunter Light Styles and has been seen wielding Stasis as well. His ghost is Aria. He holds a preference for precision weaponry and Swords.

Z

#### Zela Tatu, the Huntmaster

*Wrathborn Hunter* - Created by Jay2KWinger. A Hive Knight of pale coloration, Zela Tatu is one of Savathûn's brood, and had served as her Huntmaster for aeons. He has hunted various targets that she has set before him, killing them from afar using his modified Hive Boomer, a sleek long-barreled piece called the Longbore. Zela Tatu does not care who or what he is set to hunt, as long as it provides him with a worthy hunt. Recently, with Savathûn's betrayal of the Darkness, Zela Tatu has sworn allegiance to Xivu Arath, who has set him to hunt his former queen.
