"You are a Centurion. Commander of the battlefield. The eye and the fist of the Cabal. The tough leather that binds the unit together. [...] The enemy can see your command. The enemy can claim the strong ground, move forward from cover, and kill you first. You must be sure there is always another threat. There is a knife for you. It is shaped like [it will find you]. Take up the knife. Push yourself upon it. Take your new shape. "
Grimoire description

The Taken Centurion is a type of Taken Cabal.

Gameplay

Taken Centurions have gained the ability to fire an Axion Dart, a floating sphere that tracks targets and deals Void damage. Axion darts will curve around cover around corners easily, but can be shot and detonated to avoid damage. Taken Centurions have Arc shields embedded in their armor, and can teleport short distances. They are usually armed with a Void Projection Rifle that deals heavy splash damage, but can also be seen wielding an Arc Slug Rifle. They usually hang back, suppressing foes with their Projection Rifles and driving them out of cover with Axion Darts. However, they lack the jump jets of their regular counterparts, which makes them less capable of air maneuvering.
