*A T-shirt, featuring a Fallen Glyph with various examples of Fallen script in the background, was previously available in the Bungie Store prior to the game's launch. This shirt was also made available at PAX 2013 where its creator, Bungie graphic designer Elliot Gray, gave a little insight into the story behind its creation to a fan who asked him the meaning of the symbols. He indicated that he had used the names of several of the game's developers for the background, then pointed to one name in the corner and indicated that it translated into "Ondarius", which he stated was the name by which one of the Great Houses referred to themselves, although he didn't elaborate on which House it was.

*The Fallen's history with the Traveler is very much similar to Humanity's, as the Traveler arrived and brought in a Golden Age for both, only for it to be taken away by the Darkness. However, unlike with the Fallen, the Traveler stayed and defended Humanity when the Darkness arrived. The Fallen are likely a prime example of what Humanity would have become if the Traveler had not stayed and created the Ghosts to find and raise the Guardians.

**The closet Humanity had to relate to the nature of the Fallen were the [[Warlords]].
*Over the course of the Destiny series, from the base game back in 2014 to the present day, more and more Fallen characters have speaking roles, some even speaking English.
**''[[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]]'' was the first to have both a speaking Fallen antagonist and ally.
**''[[Forsaken]]'' and later on ''[[Beyond Light]]'' has the majority of Fallen antagonists speak English and for the former a new ally that speaks English fluently.
*The Fallen Houses, might be similar to the similar to Middle Ages groups, led by Lords. As the Dregs are similar to a fief, the Captains and Barons are like Vassals, while the Kells are the Fallen-equivalent of a Lord, and the Kell of Kells, are like the King of England. Due to their civilization being broken into Fallen Houses, which aren't friendly with each other, unless the Kell of Kells can bring their people together. As for the Traveler, it might similar to the Sword, Excalibur, from the King Arthur story, for in order to become Kell of Kells they must be crowned by the Great Machine.
*Fallen currently have the most new units added to their ranks since the launch of Destiny. With the [[Hive]] having two, the [[Vex]] having one, and the [[Cabal]] having three. Meanwhile the Fallen have introduced eight new enemy types.
