Kagoor

"I compel the loyalty of all new flesh / Huge and furious in its hunger / That which may not otherwise be commanded / My death is hidden in this sport."

- Kagoor

Kagoor is a Taken Wizard that appears as a boss in the Court of Oryx. Regarded as a master in the creation and taming of Hive Ogres, She is accompanied and protected by a Servile Ogre that must be destroyed in order to make her vulnerable to Guardian attacks.

Biography
When Oryx, the Taken King was creating his court, he decided to have room in his court for joy. He spoke with his Worm who showed him a shape that was, "the correct shape of joy." Kagoor was then "created" into his court. She became known for her mastery in taming ogres and how her death was "hidden in this sport." Crota, Son of Oryx became jealous of her power which lead to the creation of the Might of Crota, an ogre that Crota wanted Kagoor to fail at taming.

Kagoor existed throughout Oryx's wars against other species. She along with the rest of the court pulled down the Harmony's Gift Mast and also helped create the Dreadnaught. When Oryx traveled to the Sol System, Kagoor and the Court of Oryx followed. She along with most of the court would be slain by the Guardian when they attacked the ship.

Gameplay
Kagoor is a very difficult boss to tackle. Her Necromantic Gaze is difficult to dodge. She will summon endless waves of Ogres, Malificent Eyes (a stronger variant of Acolyte's Eyes), and Devoured Shadows (a stronger variant of Shadow Thralls). Killing the Maleficent Eyes, however, will grant Guardians a buff called "Ogre's Fury", which will greatly boost damage against Ogres, even the Servile Ogre, which must be killed in order to disable Kagoor's shield. Once the Servile Ogre is down, every Guardian on the battlefield must attack Kagoor with everything they have: weapons, Supers, grenades. Otherwise, another Servile Ogre will reappear, and players will need to repeat the process again. It is possible to defeat Kagoor if the Servile Ogre appears a second time, but Guardians must be quick.

Trivia
