{{Quote|Tearing soldiers of the [[Darkness|Deep]] from [[Ascendant realm|another realm]] is crossin' a bridge too far as is. But those beasts? Those weren't normal [[Taken]] possessed and set to rage. They were born of that shadow realm and they were… angry. Worse. They were hungry for the [[Light]]. You could feel it. Even a ways off. Their aura and their rage weighed on me—cast a shadow I could feel in my core.|Excerpt from a Renegade's observations of a Drifter}} | {{Quote|Tearing soldiers of the [[Darkness|Deep]] from [[Ascendant realm|another realm]] is crossin' a bridge too far as is.

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 Sterile Neutrino Count (''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> | 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 Sterile Neutrino Count (''SNC''), High-Ambient Lanbda-CDM (''ΛCDM'').

Because of their age, Primevals are also extremely powerful, as they towered over a group of [[Cabal]] who attempted to confront the Rogue Lightbearer when he traveled along the [[Emerald Coast|Coastline]]; shrugging off being attacked by the Cabal, and bombarded by the [[Cabal warship]] flying overhead. Despite the Cabal’s ferocious assault, the Primevals came out unscathed. <ref>[https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/ancient-apocalypse-strides?highlight=centurion Ancient Apocalypse Strides]</ref> | ||
