Cayde-6: Difference between revisions

Laid back, carefree, down-to-earth and adventurous are among the best words to describe Cayde-6. Though Cayde can appear to be lazy and bored with his duties as Hunter Vanguard, he actually takes them serious, more so than he would admit. Originally, Cayde wanted to continue his solo Guardian career but after his friend, [[Andal Brask]], was murdered did he put that aside and assumed his place to honor his friend. Despite this, he longs to get back into the field. Regardless, while he may appear to put Guardians on dangerous paths, deep down he cares about their safety and even calls them his "greatest success story". In addition, he was saddened at the loss of another one of his friends, the Nightstalker [[Tevis Larsen]]. As Hunter Vanguard, his carefree attitude and playing loose with the rules annoys if not aggravates his fellow teammates, [[Zavala]] and [[Ikora]], he is loyal to them and would support them no matter what. Though Zavala finds Cayde to be unorthodox, he respects him and admits that if there was anything he learned from Cayde is that one should make a grand entrance. With Ikora, she at times retaliates against Cayde's jokes with witty jests of her own. In the rare moments when Cayde is serious, the situation really is dire.

Others in the Vanguard are aware of his attitude and while some can take it like [[Amanda Holliday]], [[Suraya]] and [[Devrim]], others like [[Eris Morn]] scorn him. In particular, Eris states that Cayde is arrogant and not as funny as he believes. Despite his dislike for Eris, he made numerous attempts to apologize for using her ship to board the [[Dreadnaught]] which got it destroyed, none of which he accepts.

Even in the most tense and harrowing of situations, whether in a warzone or on an adventure, Cayde maintains his light-heartened, jokster attitude but that doesn't stop him from preforming his best in a battle. Ghost notes that after Cayde got stuck in a Vex time-loop after attempting to steal a Vex device is the reason why the Vanguard doesn't want him to leave the Tower, he simply gets into trouble.
