Destiny 2: Our Next Venture

[thorough-witness-enjoyer]

Hi hi!

I loved your rants on the Traveler and read your pinned post and was just curious to hear about your destiny OCs (or anything else you want to talk about honestly)! Please ramble as it's always a good time to read to have someone go on in detail about their interests.

Light be with you!

Greetings!!!

This was such a sweet message and I’m delighted that you found an interest in the things I discuss on this blog!!! Thank you so much for the kind words and for wanting to hear about my ocs!!

Okay so we have- *I fall down a comically long flight of stairs with my box of ocs as they go everywhere* Sorry, sorry!

Truth be told, I have a LOT of ocs from all the different species and societies of Destiny as I have been into the game for practically two-thirds of my life, more than I can possibly disclose in just one post (especially because I can talk forever about these things!!)

So, I thought it would be fun if I described my many characters and their stories as silly blog/news titles and opening statements! This is only a small handful of my ocs, but if you guys want more or see one idea you’d like to hear more of, I’ll consider posting additional content of them!

Here we go:

Infamous deathsinger-school drop out meets agoraphobic Eliksni captain at Eliksni-Hive bar, requires his and his sardonic, elder dreg‘s protection against her vengeful knight sister.

Small Uluran girl tends to her family farm with her Psion in-house caretaker, finds out the only thing more troubling than a poor harvest is Torobatl politics as her caretaker brings his fragile partner into the household.

Local Last City ghost sees success at the opening of her new therapy café despite not having hands and only employing other guardian-less ghosts.

Top ten activities to do with the goat your Witness does not approve of, but your acolytes adore! (Number 4 will certainly unleash its rage!)

BREAKING: Awoken guardian and her exo best friend are kicked out of Spider‘s Palace after starting a drunken fight over a gambling dispute for the 20th time. “I remember being young, desired, out until dawn, and unbothered by responsibilities” says their middle-aged Psion fiduciary.

This Vex harpy enjoys listening to a vagrant exo hunter play his flute and doesn’t enjoy Minotaurs at all according to the vagrant hunter that menacingly approached us.

EXCLUSIVE: We interviewed the Young Wolf on why they continue to slay gods and they said “There really isn’t much else to do and my only friends are Ghost and Crow”.

Hundreds dead and thousands more injured after a fairy betrayal in the Court of Understanding left the Great Navigator paranoid that necromancy was spreading amongst his closest circle (A fairy is a Hive class I invented that is akin to court jesters for the upper class, especially the Osmium siblings. They are light-weight and agile, possessing the ability to float, while also wielding long-range weaponry. I definitely plan to explain this concept in the future and perhaps provide artwork for them!)

Long lost sibling of the architect of The Witness found in reclusive cabin with non-verbal child, told us to “Fuck off” and “Tell that disturbed prophet I want nothing to do with them”.

How to answer your young child when they start asking questions like “Why do our neighbors have four arms?” and “If the Final Shape happens, do I still have to go to school?”: A guide written by an average Last City dad with a curious daughter.

Whats better than the daughter of a baron and a cynical knight running away to live a life of piracy and blasphemy together? Studies show it’s the daughter of a baron and a cynical knight doing all of that AND being lesbians.

Renowned Hive romantic novelist takes acolyte playwright under his wing after their work reaches acclaim in the Court of War for its depiction of the Eater of Hope’s trials with redemption and love. “This will definitely win back the hat loving wizard that I had spawn with” the novelist claimed as he flipped his decadent cape.

Old Psion yells “All paracasual beings need to die in their rotting entitlement, especially that red bloated bastard and that big eyed freak he calls ‘My Mistress’!”and immediately dies after telling his aids about his time spent directly under Nezarec.

HEARTWARMING: This Lubraen stalker welcomes newcomers by giving them a tour around the city and making their bigotry apparent.

Is this the style of the summer? Qugu person sports new curled tendril mane as they embrace the end of everything.

She’s a beefy wizard, he’s a scrawny knight, they are irritating rivals: The couple that fell in love again after becoming lucent thanks to their devoted spawn.

Potential assassin of the Witness found and held under that black liquid it comes out of until their will falters. “I had to do something to protect them. No one protected my planet. I didn’t care how much I’d pay for it” stated the now-disciple fish creature.

I have tons of concepts remaining and I thoroughly love all these characters, but I don’t want this post to be too long!! I adore expanding on unexplored areas of Destiny lore and I wish I had the time to make content for my ideas!!

Thank you again for the question and I hope I adequately answered it!! Light be with you too!!

Lore question:

How dangerous was the black garden? I'm fleshing out my guardian more, he's the yw but also like dark age older and that stuff, and I just wanna know what kind of things he could've done within the black garden before the questline for D1 main story

Does this make any sense RIP I'm so sorry.

Got Milk? campaign ad, but instead it's a Vex holding the carton and it's filled with Vex milk.

Hey, have you ever found yourself wondering how characters like the Iron lords would react to most modern day tower guardians, if they just suddenly found themselves in the present? Because from what I can tell in the lore, light bearers in the dark age were very different to most average guardians.

In fact it's even stated in the Electronia shell that Guardians canonically dance a lot more than a civilian would expect. It's even stated in things like the War Mantis Greaves and Cloak that guardians mapped the entire cabal war net by having a dance off which is also a reference to the Japanese launch trailer for vanilla D2.

So while I imagine that older light bearers are use to strange things occurring from time to time I also can't help but think they would be utterly astounded by the sheer absurdity that tends to happen around most present day guardians. As well as the fact that they tend to walk around with the weaponized corpses of space gods like they're collectables.

The whole thing just makes me laugh thinking about.

Well yeah I think about it a lot I've been spending the last year and a half writing an entire series aimed at, among other things, bringing a handful of these guys up to the present timeline after all. Which finally Just Happened by the way.

But what I think you're getting at here is kind of the "medieval peasant is shown tiktok and mind is blown" kind of joke and tbh... people's minds are more flexible than that. Humans have been dancing, making weird fashion, experimenting with science, culture, sex, weapons, humor, art, storytelling, etc., since the dawn of time and they will continue to do so until the Vex have their way and they are the last of anything standing. Saladin has adjusted just fine after all. And we have further evidence of his social and cultural flexibility by how he's shown evidence of integrating in with Caiatl's legion. He merrily references Cabal culture now in his dialogues as often as he does the ways of the Iron Lords. He mingles with the remaining old guard, Coalition aliens, and New Lights just entering the Crucible with equal ease. If his brethren were to be fast-forwarded from the Dark Age to the modern City Age, I don't think they would struggle at all. Oh, there'd be an adjustment period: the City has grown. The outlook on the use of Light and Darkness has shifted. Our enemies and allies have changed somewhat. This would be the same for anyone who went back to a place they'd been away from for a long time. I don't think cultural things like dancing and fashion would bother anyone. Either they'll adopt these changes or they won't. There are people living in the tower that are tens of centuries old: Figures who have lived through literal epochs over and over who have not changed and have no need nor intention to, and are not bothered by what brings fleeting joy to others in increasingly darkening times. Actually, the only person I can think of at all that expresses any discomfort at all is Lightless: Hawthorn, who subtly implies in some ways she is uncomfortable being in the City versus the wilds...but that is different as well. As for the age-old Guardian tradition of repurposing our enemies into tools of war... that kind of malarkey was born from the Dark Age as a means to an end in a time where survival was harder than ever and you did what you had to do to get by. Sometimes that included ugly things. I'm going to point at how ostensibly heinous the act of entrapping a half-dead Ghost in your own armor is but aside from a feeble protest by a few of the Iron Lords prior to bringing him into their number, nobody bothered Felwinter about this ever. They'd be fine. They're smart, powerful, and the people who survived the Dark Age are some of the most adaptable out there by definition. If anything I would think they'd be buoyed to see the newer generations finding scraps of levity and joy amidst a war for survival. That's the reason Jolder was so treasured, after all, was her joyful outlook. Everyone who's survived all that will say times now are better. It's good.
