Gjallarhorn

"If there is beauty in destruction, why not also in its delivery?"

- Feizel Crux

Gjallarhorn is an exotic rocket launcher featured in Destiny.

Gameplay
Gjallarhorn's special upgrade ability is "Wolfpack Rounds", wherein rounds fired from this weapon split into tracking cluster missiles upon detonation of the main warhead.

Trivia
"The Gjallarhorn shoulder-mounted rocket system was designed and personally crafted by Feizel Crux as a gift to the Guardians who fought the Battle of the Twilight Gap. Forged from the armor of the thousands who fell, to wield Gjallarhorn is to wield honor against any attempt at our extermination."

- Art Book Description


 * In Norse mythology, the god Heimdall is the bearer of Gjallarhorn, "whose blast can be heard in all worlds". The Eddas depict him blowing into the horn to signal the beginning of Ragnarök".
 * In the E3 "Closed Doors Demo", when naming the rocket launcher, the Titan's player called the weapon "It Was Raised By Wolves" . It should be noted that there are no links between Gjallarhorn and wolves found in either the Poetic or Prose Eddas. However, Mowgli, the protagonist of Rudyard Kipling's The Jungle Book, was raised by wolves. In fact, the decision to add the wolves came from the designers' desire to "infuse this horn of destruction with a beastly spirit."
 * Bungie 3-D Modeller, Mark Van Haitsma, Gjallarhorn's designer, added a wolf onto the weapon for each day he spent working on it. A total of 16 wolves thus far can be seen in in the various images of the weapon.
 * Crusader knights and gladiators inspired the design of the Gjallarhorn.
 * The design of the largest wolf on the weapon resembles the Crest of Alpha Lupi.
