Cayde-6: Difference between revisions

{{quote|Cayde is a cunning hunter, with years of experience in staying alive in the wilds. But, um, fighting a war isn't his strong suit. I'm not sure the 'shoot them all to death' strategy is going to be enough.|[[Ghost]]}}

Like most [[Exo]], Cayde remembers little about his past before the [[Collapse]]. However, he remembers enough to provide substantial information, albeit he admits the order is out of sync. Cayde used to be a [[human]] soldier with a large debt over his head, when he was approached by [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]] to have his debt removed. The job offer itself isn't explicitly stated, but what Cayde remembers next is coming to [[Europa]] where he was converted into an Exo. Cayde's Letter Fragments in ''Destiny 2'' reveal that Cayde had a wife and a son whom he nicknamed "Ace", he threw his life away gambling, and that his only means of escape was to sell himself to Clovis Bray's Exo program. Next, he remembers being assigned as a security officer to the [[Ishtar Collective]], where his job was to look after Dr. [[Maya Sundaresh]]. Though he wished to get to know her better, she barely noticed him. Afterwards, he remembers being restrained by a shadowy creature on a destroyed world, followed by another memory which he describes as not his own.<ref>Bungie (2015-9-17) Destiny: The Taken King Collector's Edition, [[Cayde's Treasure Island Book|Modified Treasure Island Book]].</ref> He was found with a journal containing Ace's name on his person after being revived by his [[Ghost]] [[Sundance]], and that Cayde kept writing to him despite not remembering him and that his son was long dead.
