Sand Eaters are a legion of the Cabal. It is the largest and most commonly encountered Legion on Mars before the Red Legion, fighting on the front lines against the Vex. They have weaker tactics and morale than the other legions, but they still press on with fierce determination. They can be identified by their white, green and orange armor. The Dust Giants, another Cabal Legion are known to be a subdivisions of Sand Eaters.

Trivia

• The Sand Eaters were originally described as guarding the Dust Palace in early promotional material.
• The Sand Eaters are the first Legion (and 1 of 5 Legions) that operates without a Primus, the other 4 are Dust Giants, Ice Reapers, Siege Dancers, and the Broken Legion.
  • However, Umun'arath is the Primus of All Legions, meaning she's possibly the Primus of Sand Eaters, Dust Giants, Ice Reapers, and Siege Dancers
• The Sand Eaters and the Dust Giants are the only two legions in which their legionaries wear re-breathers on their helmets. Given that the rest of the scout legions also operate in the same harsh environments of Mars, it is unknown why they require extra filtration.
