'''Primevals''' are a class of [[Taken]] that feature in [[Gambit]]. According to the [[The Drifter (character)|Drifter]], they are among the oldest and most powerful Taken, hence their name. They can be summoned through the use of [[Mote of Dark|Motes of Darkness]].<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/ancient-apocalypse-strides?highlight=Primevals Ancient Apocalypse Strides]</ref> | '''Primevals''' are a class of [[Taken]] that feature in [[Gambit]].

==Overview== | |||
These beings are not like other Taken, They are not individuals transformed from the physical reality to the the Deep, these creatures are born of that shadow realm, ever hungry for the [[Light]] and angry too, their elemental composition differs entirely, such as low (''SNC''), High-Ambient Lanbda-CDM (''ΛCDM''). [[The Drifter]] has been pilfering the [[Ascendant realm]] of these Primevals with his [[Bank (Gambit)|banks]] for "potential". Now he can create "Primeval-like" entities using both energies from [[The Haul|the Haul]] and sheer force of will, those even take on the visage of the [[Echo of Oryx|Echoes of Oryx]] because the Drifter thought that would be the most frightening.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/potential?highlight=primeval Potential]</ref> | |||
At one point, [[The Guardian]] managed to gain into their possession the Hear of an Ascnedant Primeval, it was delivered to the Drifter who would use it for later purposes.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/quest-city-of-secrets-darkness-in-the-light?highlight=primeval City of Secrets]</ref> Primevals are rather fast and are powerful enough to tear apart teams of [[Guardian]]s, and likely perma-kills them too somehow, and are able to heal form their deaths.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/records/gambit-prime?highlight=primeval Gambit Prime]</ref><ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/records/the-reckoning?highlight=primeval The Reckoning]</ref><ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/invader-doctor-invader?highlight=primeval INVADER]</ref> However, a weakness they share is that their methods of engagement are like rituals, take out their [[Taken Envoy]]s and weaken them faster.<ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/sentry-kill-the-messengers?highlight=primeval Sentry]</ref> | |||
