He also an ego, as he frequently taunts the Guardian and continuously boasts about his kill count, Cayde-6 in particular. He also appears to see Ghosts as trophies, as he remarks on how he'll either sell the Ghost's shell to the Spider, a keen collector, or mount them on his wall as decoration. | ||
