==History==
==History==
At one point Bracus Zahn had dealings with Calus, whom he regarded as his best customer prior to his [[Midnight Coup (event)|usurption]]. His successor, [[Dominus Ghaul]], would instead summon Zahn to the [[Sol System]] and aid in arming the [[Red Legion]] with his illicit weaponry as they went to [[Red War|war]] with the [[Last City]] of [[Humanity]]; much to the latter's hatred of Ghaul for deposing Calus. Having met Ghaul aboard his [[The Immortal|ship]], Zahn contemplates the weaknesses in Ghaul's ceremonial armor and that killing him could force the Cabal to abandon his foolish crusade. When the Dominus calls to question the quantity of Zahn's advanced weapons, the latter tries holding back his anger while responding with a rhetorical question having come all the way to his "throne room" without them. The [[Consul]] rebukes the Legionary for his flippant remarks, only to be silenced by Zahn as he was wasting time with the only real weapons supplier they have got. He then smiles much to the chagrin of the two as he knew they needed him.<ref name="Tilt Fuse"/>

Throughout the Red War, Zahn's weapons were used by Red Legion Cabal in the killing of hundreds of [[Human]]s in the Last City and the [[European Dead Zone]]. Zahn himself also had a bounty briefly placed by the former [[Emperor Calus]] for allying with his political enemies.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Exotic Quest:[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/end-the-arms-dealer End The Arms Dealer]''</ref>  With the war having ended in Ghaul's death, his troops would take command of [[Firebase Hades]] while the former himself took over the [[Orobas Vectura]] after its previous [[Thumos, the Unbroken|commander]] was killed.However [[Commander Zavala]] would issue a [[Strike]] team supervised by [[Suraya Hawthorne]] and [[Cayde-6]] to kill the arms dealer and deprive the Red Legion of his weapon supply. During the strike, the base was alerted to the Guardians' presence due to a silent alarm being tripped by [[Ghost]] hacking in their network. Zahn's lieutenants rally the Red Legion to engage the fireteam, which included the air support of [[Thresher]]s and two [[Goliath Tank]]s. The Bracus himself would tactically retreat to the [[Firebase Airfield]] for one final stand against them, only to have met his end in battle for good.<ref name="The Arms Dealer"/>

After the arrival of [[The Witness]], Bracus Zhan would resurface, taking up his old base in the Orobas Vectura, but now supplying weapons to [[Emperor Calus]]' [[Shadow Legion]] and capturing several of the [[Imperial Cabal]]'s [[Ascendant Guard]]s. The Vanguard would launch another operation, coordinated by both Zavala and [[Empress Caiatl]], to free the captives and take down Zahn. They wondered what the nature of this new "Zahn" was, if he had survived his assassination years prior, or was merely an imitator, taking up the original's name and legacy. The Guardian Fireteam freed the captives, and alongside them stormed Bracus Zahn's base, ultimately putting him down again.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/28/2)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Lightfall]], [[The Arms Dealer]]''</ref>

Bracus Zahn is a Cabal officer distinguished by his unusual chartreuse-colored armor. As a skilled weaponsmith and major arms dealer of the Cabal, Zahn had connections with the likes of [[Emperor Calus]] and later the [[Red Legion]], supplying both sides with his own experimental weaponry such as the [[Volcanic Scorpius]]. Zahn would even experiment on [[Sparrow]]s by rigging them with explosives and turning them into the fastest bombs according to [[Amanda Holliday]].<ref name="Tilt Fuse">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[Tilt Fuse#Lore|Tilt Fuse]]''</ref>
