Vex

The Vex are time-traveling robots who are hostile to the Guardians. Located on Venus, their fortress is known as the Citadel.

Description
Their heads are cone-shaped, with a red photoreceptor at the center. They arrive in the solar system via warp gates, likely from another time in the past or future. Their robotic bodies still carry a hint of organic components, and individual bodies might be humanoid, creature-shaped, or in-between, but often with long, vicious clawed fingers. The seemingly illogical geometric designs of their structures come together like giant ant hills. Headshots do not do much damage, but shooting their abdomen power cores causes them to explode.

The Vex appear to be mass-produced units, constructed of an unknown metal alloy. All attempts by Guardians to communicate with them failed.
