'''Master Ives''' was the [[Cryptarch]] of the [[Vestian Outpost]]. In ''[[Destiny]]'', he shares the same reputation level as [[Master Rahool]], so he doesn't need to be leveled up independently. He will also purchase any artifacts from players, as well as any [[Royal Amethyst]] they've recovered.

In ''[[Destiny 2]]'', sometime around the events of ''[[Forsaken]]'', Master Ives was found murdered and [[the Guardian]] pursues his killers during the events of the [[Festival of the Lost]]. <ref>[https://www.bungie.net/en/News/Article/47315 '''Bungie.net''' - ''Festival of the Lost – 2018'']</ref>

==Biography==
After Queen [[Mara Sov]] granted the [[Vanguard]] access to the [[Vestian Outpost]], Ives was assigned to assist [[Guardian]]s there with decrypting engrams. Ives was introduced to a [[The Guardian|Guardian]] who had been aided by the Queen, and whom he had heard much of from [[Master Rahool]]. He informed the Guardian he was looking forward to doing business with them and hoped not to disappoint them too much.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard'', [[House of Wolves (quest)]]</ref>

Sometime later after the events of [[Forsaken]], Ives was found murdered by an unknown killer. [[Petra Venj]] contacted [[Amanda Holliday]] during that year's [[Festival of the Lost]], who brought in [[The Guardian]] to help solve the mystery. Given a lead by Holliday, the Guardian found through some of Ives' lost journal pages and a collection of sources left unidentified by Amanda that the [[Fallen]] were somehow responsible. After scouring the [[European Dead Zone]] for clues, the Guardian came across a Fallen teleporter with Ives' Cryptarch robes hanging next to it in the [[Whispered Falls]]. After being told to follow by Holliday, the Guardian was taken back to the [[Cosmodrome]] for the first time since the [[SIVA Crisis]] years ago, as it was quarantined by [[Zavala]]. The Guardian explored [[the Breach]], fighting off waves of Fallen, and slayed the one responsible for Ives' death: [[Kikliss, Murderer]], a Fallen captain of the [[House of Dusk]], accompanied by the [[Servitor]] [[Rudriks-9]]. Following this, the Guardian left the Cosmodrome and returned to Holliday, where they acquired Master Ives' Last Engram, which, when decrypted, awarded the [[Thunderlord]]. However, it is also mentioned by Amanda while in the Cosmodrome that the Fallen did not seem to have any apparent motive and that this event was most likely part of something larger.

==Personality and Traits==
Reef Cryptarchs believe that their job is to encrypt matter and secrets, rather than discover them. They are often at odds with the [[City]]'s Cryptarchy on matters of philosophy.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-5-19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/The_Queen#Master Ives, Cryptarch|Master Ives, Cryptarch]]''</ref> Ives, in particular, has a rivalry with Rahool.
