"By pleasing their gods, the Hive carve scars on the fabric of our realm."

— Toland, the Shattered

Urzok, the Hated is a Hive Knight who is honored by the lesser Hive as an executor that ritualistically sacrifices The Forsaken to fuel the Wizards' ritualistic tribute to their patrons, namely Crota and Oryx. While his primary role is that of an executioner, Urzok also has distinguished himself as a brutal warrior with none having faced the Hated lived to tell the tale.

Urzok reappears in the Warmind expansion in Taken form as Urzok, Aspect of Hate. He serves as one of the Taken bosses of The Whisper, also appearing in Lost Oasis to trigger the mission start upon death.

Gameplay

Urzok only appears during Public Events and occasionally in skirmishes between the Blood of Oryx and the House of Devils at Skywatch. Being a Level 31 Ultra enemy, he is difficult to kill as he also comes with a regenerating Arc shield and is typically in the company of other Major Hive enemies.

Urzok also serves as a target for the Urn of Sacrifice Quest for Eris Morn.

Trivia

• Because of his immense difficulty to kill and his Arc shield's near immediate regen, Urzok's title is particularly apt among the Destiny community.
