Osiris
From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki
- "Oryx-Dead-King. Oryx Dead King, 3 words, 9 word bursts over and over. Osiris?"
- — Master Rahool[1]
Osiris is an old Warlock and former Vanguard who was exiled from the City. A veteran of Six Fronts, he was a well respected warrior who's desire for truth about the purpose of guardians and the nature of darkness drove him to madness.[2] He studied the Hive, in particular prophesying the coming of Oryx, and is also rumored to have come "too close to understanding the Vex".[3][4] He is described as having a cult of personality, and has a number of disciples, such as Brother Vance, who attempt to see how far the Light can be bent before it can be broken.[5]
Osiris holds a Crucible tournament called the Trials of Osiris, where he seeks to recruit the toughest Guardians to his cause.

Trivia
