Osiris is an old Warlock and former Vanguard who was exiled from the City. A veteran of Six Fronts, he was a well respected warrior whose desire for truth about the purpose of guardians and the nature of darkness drove him to madness. His theories were not only considered borderline blasphemous, but he was also diverting guardians and resources away from protecting the City and refugees, and towards chasing legends and rumors, such as the Vault of Glass.[2] He studied the Hive, in particular prophesying the coming of Oryx, and is also rumored to have come "too close to understanding the Vex".[3][4] He is described as having a cult of personality, and has a number of disciples, such as Brother Vance, who attempt to see how far the Light can be bent before it can be broken.[5]
Osiris holds a Crucible tournament called the Trials of Osiris, where he seeks to recruit the toughest Guardians to his cause.
