The Red Legion is a powerful Cabal Legion led by Dominus Ghaul. The Legion was deployed in response to the Skyburners' distress call to attack the Last City on Earth, launching a successful invasion of Earth and the Last City. They managed to cripple the Last City and devastate the Guardians, leaving them vulnerable and displaced. They are attempting to claim the Light from the Traveler and become Guardians.[1] Following the attack, the Red Legion began to quickly occupy the Solar System, even making an attempt to dig up ancient Vex ruins on Nessus, where they unearthed the ancient Vex mind Protheon, Modular Mind.

Trivia
- The Red Legion is the first Cabal force to travel to Earth and succeed in attacking the Last City.
- Red Legion Cabal names do not follow the typical naming aragmentment, lacking apostrophes, similar to the Psion Flayers.
- They use more advanced technology in stark contrast to the Cabal scouts who were originally deployed to the Solar System, evidence of the Cabal Empire's advancements after the original scouting party was deployed.
- Unlike the Cabal scouts who appeared in Destiny, the Red Legion purely consists of Cabal soldiers bred for combat.
