Shadows of Yor

From Destinypedia, the Destiny wiki

"We’ve traced Yor’s steps from beginning to end and back again. We’ve studied his reign — the terror he seeded, the violence he wrought as if free of conscience. Only to discover a true and terrible thing: he was not simply the monster the legends claim him to be."
— Teben Grey[1]

The Shadows of Yor are a group of Guardians who idolize the infamous Dredgen Yor to the point that they utilize replicas of Yor's signature weapon, Thorn, and have adopted new names in honor of him; most disturbingly, they have even explained away his terrible misdeeds by claiming it was all a lie, that he turned because he had no choice.[1] Their ultimate goal is become as close to him as possible without falling to corruption.[1]

Although they assert that their Thorns have been cleansed of any influence of the Darkness, the Shadows of Yor have begun exhibiting increasingly strange behavior,[2] including ignoring objectives in the Crucible and killing other Guardians during matches seemingly for the pleasure of killing. The Vanguard and Shin Malphur are monitoring the Shadows' activities.[3][4][5][6][7]

Ironically, the Shadows of Yor was founded by an undercover Shin Malphur after noticing that some Guardians have shown interest in Dredgen Yor. Aiming to weed out the weak-minded and corrupt, Shin forged a new identity as "Dredgen Vale" and together with Teben Gray, founded the group that idolize his greatest enemy.[citation needed]
