The Legion was last deployed in response to the [[Skyburners]]' distress call to attack the [[Last City]] on [[Earth]], launching a successful invasion of Earth and the Last City. Using the [[Traveler Cage]], they managed to cripple the Last City and devastate the [[Guardians]], leaving them vulnerable and displaced.

With their security being lax, and Ghaul being preoccupied by wanting to understand the Traveler, their greatest weapon, ''[[The Almighty]]'', which can destroy suns was under attack by a Guardian and was disabled. This led to a full on attack on the Red Legion occupied city by more Guardians, spearheaded by the Vanguard. With pressure mounting and his temper boiling over, Ghaul murdered the Consul, who criticized his obsession, and went to take the light to become a Guardian himself. For a short while he was successful and combated the Guardian. However, Ghaul was defeated and the Traveler awoken, who ended the Dominus once and for all. Even in it’s aftermath, Red Legion weapons are used in [[Shaxx]]’s [[Crucible]] to help train new Guardians. | With their security being lax, and Ghaul being preoccupied by wanting to understand the Traveler, their greatest weapon, ''[[The Almighty]]'', which can destroy suns was under attack by a Guardian and was disabled.

With the Almighty's crash site no longer in flame and its debris no longer falling from the sky, the Red Legion were reduced to a barren few after countless losses. Despite this, the Legion still operates. Several groups of Cabal interfere with the [[Contact]] public event in hopes of harnessing the phantasmal energy seen utilised in [[Unstoppable Incendior|many]] [[Barrier Colossus|Champions]] brought to the forefront. It is unknown if the Red Legion in their desperation have managed to use the energy to create Champions, or if the champions are derived from another way. It is also unknown whether or not [[Amtec]] still leads the remains of the Legion due to her possible death on the Almighty unconfirmed. As for their current fate, the remaining Cabal in the system will either turn to Calus’ Loyalists or to [[Caiatl, the Princess-Imperial]]’s regime, with the latter seeking to raise the Legion once more.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/contact?highlight=Cabal CONTACT]</ref><ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/heir-apparent?highlight=Heir]</ref> | With the Almighty's crash site no longer in flame and its debris no longer falling from the sky, the Red Legion were reduced to a barren few after countless losses.

Red Legion troops can be primarily identified by their signature gunmetal and red color scheme, with some troops having gold, silver, or orange highlights depending upon their rank. They are also more heavily armored than other [[Cabal]] Legions, wearing metal plates over a bodysuit of [[War Beast]] scales. <ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/73up53/til_the_red_legion_burns_their_insignia_into_the/dntnlgc/</ref> | Red Legion troops can be primarily identified by their signature gunmetal and red color scheme, with some troops having gold, silver, or orange highlights depending upon their rank.
