- "The name is... Nokris."
- — Ghost[1]
Nokris, Herald of Xol is a Hive god[1][2] and the herald of the Worm God, Xol.[3]
Little is known except that a statue can be found in the Dreadnaught near the Altar of Oryx[4] beside similar statues of Crota and Oryx, indicating kinship. The Guardian's Ghost infers it is a Hive god from accompanying Hive glyphs but couldn't recognize the symbol.[1] There is no file associated with this entity from either the World's Grave or the Books of Sorrow.[1] At Eris Morn's request Asher Mir scoured his library for references to Nokris but found none.[5]. In Destiny 2 Nokris features in the Warmind-exclusive strike Strange Terrain.

Trivia
- The word "Nokris" might be derived from "Noctuidae", which is a family of moth, the wing patterns of which resemble the Shroud of Flies Hunter Cloak pattern.[6] Similarly, "Nokri" is a Hebrew word for "alien" or "adulteress".[7] Relatedly, the prefix "Nok" could be a derivation of "Noc", or "Nocturnal", the Greek Goddess of the night; similarly, the Roman translation is "Nox".
