-'''Sand Eaters''' are a legion of the [[Cabal]]. It is the largest and most commonly encountered Legion on [[Mars]] before the [[Red Legion]], fighting on the front lines against the [[Vex]]. They have weaker tactics and morale than the other legions, but they still press on with fierce determination.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Sand_Eaters|Sand Eaters]]''</ref> They can be identified by their white, green and orange armor. [[Dust Giants]] and [[Siege Dancers]] are the subdivisions of Sand Eaters.

During the [[Taken War]], the Sand Eaters took massive casualties fighting the [[Taken]], losing about 58% of all their troops stationed across Mars and [[Phobos]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/09/15)''', ''Destiny: [[The Taken King]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, Ghost Scan: [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/transcripts/ghost-scan-cabal-losses Cabal losses]''</ref>
+==History==
+===Arrival in Sol===
+The Sand Eaters arrived in Sol sometime after the [[Collapse]]. They would set up bases at the [[Exclusion Zone]], [[Scablands]], and [[The Barrens]] on [[Mars]].
+===Search for the Black Garden===
+[[The Guardian]] would arrive at the [[Exclusion Zone]] on [[Mars]], to search for an entrance to the [[Black Garden]]. Despite their numbers advantage, they would be unable to defeat the lone Lightbearer, who would kill [[Bracus Tho'ourg]]. Later the Sand Eaters would attempt to take control of the [[Buried City]] from the [[Virgo Prohibition]]. However they would be stopped by the Guardian who would kill [[Bracus Tha'aurn]] and weaken their hold over the city.
 ==Notable members==

+*[[Spymaster Haru'ul]]

+*[[Commander Edru'us]] (inferred, formerly)
-**However, [[Umun'arath]] is the Primus of All Legions, meaning she's possibly the Primus of Sand Eaters, Dust Giants, Ice Reapers, and Siege Dancers

+==Trivia==
+*The Sand Eaters were originally described as guarding the [[Dust Palace]] in early promotional material.
+*The Sand Eaters are the first Legion (and 1 of 5 Legions) that operates without a [[Primus]], the other 4 are [[Dust Giants]], [[Ice Reapers]], [[Siege Dancers]], and the [[Broken Legion]].
+**However, [[Umun'arath]] was the Primus of All Legions, meaning she possibly was the Primus of Sand Eaters, Dust Giants, Ice Reapers, and Siege Dancers.
+*The Sand Eaters and the [[Dust Giants]] are the only two legions in which their legionaries wear re-breathers on their helmets. Given that the rest of the scout legions also operate in the same harsh environments of Mars, it is unknown why they require extra filtration.
+**A possible reason of this, is that the Sand Eaters and the Dust Giants are mostly in front of battles or in more conflict than the rest of the other legions.
+*[[Terrabase Charon]] on [[Io]] features banners and emblems of the Sand Eaters, indicating that it was formerly one of their bases prior to being taken over by the [[Red Legion]] or that members of the Sand Eaters were relocated there during the [[Red War]] before the base was abandoned entirely.
