The Black Armory was founded at the end of the [[Golden Age]] by three families: French [[House of Meyrin]], Norse Rasmussen Clan, and Japanese Satou Tribe; each bringing elements of their native heritage to the Armory's designs. The clans' matriarchs, [[Henriette Meyrin]], [[Helga Rasmussen]] and [[Yuki Satou]], believed that the Earth is about to be invaded by some extraterrestrial enemy and agreed to manufacture and stockpile advanced firearms to ensure survival of their families.<ref name="BAP 25">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], Entry 25''</ref> They built several Forges and were selling some weapons to compensate for their expenses; Helga Rasmussen, previously of [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]], ran the business side of things.<ref name="BAP 41">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], Entry 41''</ref>

In addition, the Black Armory possessed a large Vault which contained a large number of their weapons. To prevent their weapons from being misused, they went to great lengths to ensure their secrecy. However, when weapons and technology belonging to the Black Armory were reported stolen by the [[Kell's Scourge]], Ada-1 reluctantly forms a partnership with the Guardians to ensure the safety of her foundry's forges and prevent the Fallen from finding the Vault. Ironically, the Vault is located in the Last City and it is where the Guardians face off against the Kell's Scourge and [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge|Insurrection Prime]] to prevent them from breaching the Vault.

'''Project Niobe''' was a secret Black Armory experiment with the intention to aid [[Humanity]] by combining the Armory's weapon-enhancing phase technology with an artificial frame and digitized consciousness of the [[Exo]]. This in other words would have given an Exo the ability to become a mobilised forge.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/07)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], PlayStation 4, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/entries-67-68 Entry 67-68]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/07)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory (expansion)|Black Armory]], PlayStation 4, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/entries-104-105 Entry 104-105]''</ref>
