Like most [[Exo]], Cayde remembers little about his past before the [[Collapse]]. However, he remembers enough to provide substantial information, albeit he admits the order is out of sync. Cayde used to be a [[human]] soldier with a large debt over his head, when he was approached by [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]] to have his debt removed. The job offer itself isn't explicitly stated, but what Cayde remembers next is coming to [[Enceladus]] where he was converted into an Exo. Cayde's Letter Fragments in ''Destiny 2'' reveal that Cayde had a wife and a son whom he nicknamed "Ace", he threw his life away from gambling, and that his only means of escape was to sell himself to Clovis Bray's Exo program. Next, he remembers being assigned as a security officer to the [[Ishtar Collective]], where his job was to look after Dr. [[Maya Sundaresh]]. Though he wished to get to know her better, she barely noticed him. Afterward, he remembers being restrained by a shadowy creature on a destroyed world, followed by another memory which he describes as not his own.<ref>Bungie (2015-9-17) Destiny: The Taken King Collector's Edition, [[Cayde's Treasure Island Book|Modified Treasure Island Book]].</ref> He was found with a journal containing Ace's name on his person after being revived by his [[Ghost]], [[Sundance]], and that Cayde kept writing to him despite not remembering him and that his son was long dead.

While searching for a [[Hive]] Shrine on the [[Moon]], Cayde found a Hive structure and entered it. Inside, he encountered a huge horde of Hive consisting of [[Thrall]]s, [[Knight]]s, and [[Wizard]]s and promptly retreated. The Hive pursued him to the surface, and Cayde cut down many Thrall before running out of ammo for his machine gun. Taking cover behind a crashed Phaeton, Cayde spotted a [[Fallen]] [[Exile Baroness|Baroness]] of the [[House of Exile]] fighting the Hive as well. The Hive pushed back both Cayde and the Baron onto a hill with an old interferometry array on top of it. Fighting together, the two killed most of the Hive, and Cayde eventually climbed the array to get an angle on the Wizards and saw the Baron kill a Knight but lose her blades in the process. From his perch, Cayde exhausted the rest of his ammo, but only one Wizard and a line of Thrall remained. After climbing back down, Cayde saw the Baron was badly wounded and he wondered how many people she had murdered. The Baron then tossed her last [[Shock Pistol]] to Cayde, but when he went to grab it she attempted to stab him. However, she was slow and Cayde easily dodged her, and he proceeded to break her arms and slit her throat. Cayde wondered if the Baron had truly wanted to kill him or if she did that to make his choice about ending her easier. Cayde proceeded to use the Shock Pistol to kill the remaining Hive.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen#Ghost_Fragment:_Fallen|Ghost Fragment: Fallen]]''</ref>

Cayde attended the funeral of the Warlock [[Albios]] on the moon of [[Io]]. Although he liked Albios, Cayde quickly grew bored during the long service and made a bet with [[Banshee-44]] that he could pull off several high-risk jumps on the nearby mesas. He won the bet, although he broke both his legs completing the jumps. Cayde hid his winnings in one of his hidden caches in the mesas.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description: [[Treasure Map]]''</ref>

Cayde-6 was once a daring and adventurous Guardian, so of course, he couldn't say no to a challenge - not even the notorious Vanguard Dare. He lost the bet, to his immense regret. It is implied the bet was on who could kill the Fallen mercenary [[Taniks, the Scarred]], but Cayde took over as the Hunter Vanguard when his predecessor and close friend, [[Andal Brask]], was murdered by the mercenary. Though Cayde serves dutifully, he yearns to return to the field, in particular having his eyes set on the mythical [[Vault of Glass]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Hunter_Vanguard|Hunter Vanguard]]''</ref>

Cayde was approached by [[The Guardian]] who was recently risen in the [[Cosmodrome]] in [[Old Russia]]. He welcomed them to the Tower, provided them with [[Glimmer]], basic provisions, and advice before suggesting that they get a new weapon from [[Banshee-44]], although he was impressed that they had escaped from the Cosmodrome using the [[Khvostov 7G-02]].<ref>''' Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[A Hunter Rises]]''</ref> When he learned that the new Guardian had found the Hive within the Cosmodrome, Cayde knew the only response would be to strike at their strongholds on the Moon. While speaking with the Guardian, he mused that most new Guardians never returned from the moon, before remembering that they were also new and quickly reassuring them he was sure they would be fine.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Story:_Earth,_Old_Russia#The_Dark_Within|The Dark Within]]''</ref>

While talking with Lord [[Shaxx]], Cayde-6 disputed the Crucible handler's assertion that former Titan Vanguard [[Saint-14]] was dead. He praised the Exo's ability to kill Fallen [[Kell]]s but noted that Saint was also crazy. Shaxx took exception to that, claiming that eccentricity was one of Saint's strengths, causing Cayde to point out that Saint had claimed to see the future of a Guardian savior which inspired him during the [[Battle of Six Fronts]]. He proceeded to mock the idea that one Guardian could turn things around for humanity's struggle against their enemies. Shaxx then left to watch the Crucible debut the new Guardian from Old Russia, who Cayde joked could be the savior Saint had foreseen and that they could call them "Crota's End".<ref>'''Bungie (2017/5/12)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Helm of Saint-14]]''</ref>

Cayde later learned that that Guardian had ventured into the [[Ishtar Collective]] on [[Venus]] and gathered information on [[Vex]] [[Gate Lord]]'s as part of a deal with the [[Awoken]] in the [[Reef]] to gain access to the [[Black Garden]]. He admitted to the Guardian that he and the rest of the Vanguard were concerned about the Vex, but that the information they had recovered gave him hope they could be defeated. However, he also cautioned them about deals with the Awoken, noting that Queen [[Mara Sov]] always collected what she was owed.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Story:_Venus,_Ishtar_Sink#Ishtar_Collective|The Ishtar Collective]]''</ref>
