==Biography==
==Biography==
Ixel was an ambitious, high-ranking Psion stationed on Nessus under an "uncreative" [[Valus]]. Believing her potential was being stifled by her Valus's refusal to investigate Vex technology that could augment her natural powers, Ixel slew him and deserted, taking the best soldiers from their unit with her.<ref name = "THL">'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:From_the_Front#I._The_Hopeful_Legion|From the Front I: The Hopeful Legion]]''</ref>

Despite being a traitor to the Cabal and considering Empress Caiatl a fool, Ixel's ambition drove her to pursue a seat on Caiatl's [[War Council]] by harnessing a Vex prediction engine to predict any and every way to kill [[Zavala|Commander Zavala]] and cripple the [[Last City]]'s command.<ref name = "THL"/> Caiatl did not reject Ixel's claim, and her desire to kill the [[Vanguard]] reached the ears of Caiatl's champion [[Ignovun, Chosen of Caiatl|Ignovun]].<ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Weapon|Weapon Lore]]: [[Threaded Needle]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2021/2/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Chosen]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:From_the_Front#VII._The_Imperial_Throne|From the Front VII: The Imperial Throne]]''</ref> However, thanks to the [[The Crow|Crow]], her plans were revealed to [[Saladin Forge]].

Even though Ixel fell to the [[Lightbearer]]s in the Rite of Proving, her findings in the prediction engine found their way to the rebel, [[Yirix]], and her [[Psion conclave]]. They used them to further their plans of vengeance against the Guardians in the name of [[Amtec]], attempting to act on the predictions of Zavala's final death.
==Gameplay==
Ixel fights like many of her Psion predecessors, tending to stay up close to make the most out of her Slug Launcher and melee abilities. Upon reaching each third of her health bar, Ixel creates an unbreachable shield around herself and summons special white glowing enemies who power her shield. Kill these enemies and her shield will drop, allowing for the fight to continue.


==Gameplay==
It's best to keep Ixel on the back of your mind and focus on her squad, as they will quickly overwhelm your Fireteam if you don't keep their numbers low, only beginning to target Ixel once the herd as been thinned a substantial amount.
Ixel fights like many of her Psion predecessors, tending to stay up close to make the most out of her melee attack and [[Cabal Slug Launcher]]. Only focus Ixel once the herd has been thinned by a substantial amount. The boss also possesses an ability of the late Red Legion [[Psion Flayer|Flayer]]: [[Ozletc, the Sky Piercer]]. That being the power to bombard the surrounding area with pillars of [[Arc]] energy that will deal serious damage if you are hit by one. These are telegraphed by her levitating off the ground when charging the attack, as well as blue circles on the ground that designate where the blasts are going to land, so it is important to keep an eye out for any of these signs. However, it is best to keep Ixel in the back of your mind and focus on her reinforcements, as they will quickly overwhelm your [[Fireteam]] if you do not keep their numbers low. Upon reaching each third of her health bar, the Psion will create an immunity shield around herself and summon special enemies, distinguished by their glowing, white aura, who power her defenses. They must be killed in order to disable her shield and continue the fight. Once the Ixel has been taken care of, the activity will come to an end.
 
==Trivia==
*Ixel's appearance looks remarkably similar to one of [[Inotam, Oblivion's Triune]]'s concept art, where she had more bulky armor and a fabric cape.
