Dominus Ghaul

Line 141:

On the battlefield, Ghaul is a ruthless and domineering 15 foot tall warlord, taller than most of his kind, going as far as to conquer an entire civilization at the behest of his people's benefit, demonstrating a cold lack of care and sympathy for other alien races outside of the [[Cabal]], excluding the [[Psion]] and [[War Beast]] races. Ghaul is also incredibly physically strong for a member of his race, being able to effortlessly send a fully armored [[Titan (class)|Titan]] flying into the air just by kneeing him. Ghaul is able to throw fully armored Guardians around as if they were mere toys, even putting a lone Titan onto the ground in seconds, a physical testament to his might.

Ghaul also views himself with high esteem to the point of arrogance, condescendingly calling [[The Guardian]] a "creature," telling them to not to look at him afterward. In addition, he believes that he alone is worthy of the Traveler's Light and its gifts. Therefore, he feels that the Guardians don't deserve the Traveler's Light as him and his people do, displaying traits of megalomania. Despite this, he originally wanted to prove that he was worthy of the Traveler's Light rather than simply take it. He states to the Speaker that in taking the Light by force, he would be admitting his own failure in proving his own worth. In a cutscene, he speaks about his fascination with the Traveler and how he has studied it and ~~it's~~ movements across the stars. He is intrigued by ~~it's~~ ability to bestow the light upon species and how it gave immortality, through the Ghosts, to the Guardians. He questions the Speaker on how to be deemed worthy by the Traveler and gifted with immortality, wanting to put the knowledge to his own use. He is disappointed however, when the Speaker tells him that the Light can only be given to him through death.

However, Ghaul was not always like this, as Calus' journal revealed that Ghaul was once an innocent orphan, who was adopted by The Consul, meant to be used as a proxy to usurp Calus and the Empire. The Consul instilled ideals of hatred and rage into Ghaul and taught him to become a powerful warrior, one without mercy. However, though Ghaul was intended to be a puppet to the Consul's group, he proved to be far more strong-willed than anticipated. In time, the group that elevated and used him, the Consul included, learned to fear him and follow his creeds.<ref>https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/6xjp7j/spoiler_destiny_2_collectors_edition_and_cabal/</ref>
