Dominus Ghaul

"I am Ghaul, and your Light... is mine."

- Dominus Ghaul

Dominus Ghaul is a Cabal warlord and the leader of the Red Legion. Ghaul arrived in the solar system following the Skyburners' distress call with the goal of claiming the Traveler and its Light for himself. He successfully led his forces in a surprise attack against the City, having eliminated the Vanguard satellites prior to attacking the Tower and isolating the Traveler within a restraining shield, leaving the Guardians displaced and powerless. He also has stationed a massive ship outside of the Sun, which siphons Light from it. He is the main antagonist of Destiny 2.

Biography
"Today we know our enemy, his name is—" "Gary! Or Gill; Glenn? Is it—I don't know! It's something with a G!" "Ghaul!"

- Zavala and Cayde-6

From his youth, Ghaul was raised to believe he and the Red Legion should have received the Traveler's power, and that in choosing humanity, it made the wrong choice. In attacking the City, Ghaul sought to show the Traveler the error of its ways and establish a new order of Guardians from within the ranks of his own species.

Ghaul is adorned in large, metallic gunmetal armor, and is often seen without a helmet, sporting a metal facemask instead.
