In terms of environmental hazards, Fundament was hostile to the point of being almost uninhabitable. The Fundament ocean was toxic, freak lightning storms constantly ravaged the skies, the rain was poisonous and sometimes corrosive, lightning had enough energy to vaporize anyone it struck, "living clouds" called [[Stormjoy]]s would prey on the populace, and the Krill were frequently in conflict.<ref name="Predators">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#I:_Predators|I: Predators]]''</ref>
