At an unknown date, a [[Warlock]] named [[Jana-14]] obsessively researching the Thorn and other parts of Yor's knowledge managed to reverse-engineer the Mark of the Devourer and create an explosive, contagious version of the poison, applying it to a pair of gauntlets named the [[Necrotic Grip]]. Sometime during the war against the [[House of Salvation]], the Guardian would obtain the Grips, and would discover its ability to synergize with the Thorn itself, enabling the gun's rounds to take on the traits of the Grips' poison. | At an unknown date, a [[Warlock]] named [[Jana-14]] obsessively researching the Thorn and other parts of Yor's knowledge managed to reverse-engineer the Mark of the Devourer and create an explosive, contagious version of the poison, applying it to a pair of gauntlets named the [[Necrotic Grip]].

Thorn, like every exotic in Destiny, has a "signature perk". Thorn's is called "Mark of the Devourer", which allows rounds fired from the weapon to pierce the target and cause lingering damage over time, <ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/inventory/item/3164616404 '''DestinyDB''' : ''Thorn'']</ref> which, in PvP, could potentially prevent a fleeing Guardian's shield from regenerating quickly enough for a kill-shot to be delivered. This perk has since been nerfed from its [[Year 1]] iteration. | Thorn, like every exotic in Destiny, has a "signature perk".

Augmented through dark practices, Thorn was once a hero's weapon. Its jagged frame hints at a sinister truth: a powerful connection to the unutterable sorceries of the Hive. | |||
The legend of Thorn is bound to the rise and fall of Dredgen Yor, a Guardian whose name is remembered with disgust and shame. The weapon was thought destroyed... but rumors of its existence still haunt the wilds. | |||

*'''Soul Devourer:''' Absorbing a Remnant strengthens Mark of the Devourer and partially refills the magazine. | |||

===Lore=== | |||
"The [[Weapons of Sorrow]] are not the endgame, but a road map. Each evolution, every advance in the delivery of pain and the mastery of destruction feeds the Hive's hateful weapons research. They will map every scream, harness every aggression, until they understand every method by which to ravage the hearts, minds, and flesh of man. And in doing so, they will turn us against ourselves—feeding our lust, our greed, our fear, until we become a threat unto ourselves like none we could imagine. So, wield these, angry reaper. Strive to know the darkness in your own heart. Walk in the shadows of fallen heroes. And know that you are an enemy of hope." | |||
