Future War Cult

If they were to release some type of faction war in Destiny, then which group would you main? If you don't want to watch the video, I'll explain the significance of them New Monarchy: They want to reside on Earth and get powerful enough sand up to the darkness. They are dedicated to the City, and also trying to attempt to bring back the Golden Age. They enforce laws and have a close connection to city's royalty. Dead Orbit: They want to flee from Earth hoping to escape the darkness, they think that the darkness isn't worth fighting. They don't like New Monarchy because they think they're stupid for even trying to save earth Edit: FWC: They believe the battle with the darkness is inevitable. FWC want to gain knowledge of the enemy's tactics and hardware to create better and more futuristic weaponry to better stand up against the Darkness, and also win.. They are interested in Time Travel too. Not really trusted by either of the other two factions. I know you can earn reputation in them all, but which one would you main?? Edit: As for The Seven Seraphs all i know is that this is a special type of faction that involves 7 powerful "Warminds", and the faction would probably revolve around releasing them from hidden underground bunkers. And for Osiris. Little is very much known about them, but i'm sure that it involves resurrecting some type of god like being. Also when you look at pictures of the Egyptian god Osiris, you'll see that his skin tone is the same as an Awoken. So i'm guessing Osiris is mostly made up of the Awoken race, just like FWC is mostly made up of Exos. But Osiris and 7 Seraphs are mostly speculation, and they are proabably going to be special type factions that you can't just walk into the tower and just join for just the hell of it(this is just speculation too), this is why i won't include them in my poll until i get some concrete information about them.

    FWC not only wants to fight, they believe the battle with the darkness is inevitable. FWC want to gain knowledge of the enemy's tactics and hardware to create better and more futuristic weaponry to better stand up against the Darkness AND WIN. To me, this sounds like the most logical and best chance to keep the Human species alive. Dead Orbit: Where are they going to run to? Do we even have ships capable of making it to the next solar system? By looking at what’s on the launch pads in the Cosmodrome, No, we don’t! New Monarchy: Pffft. Yea, changing the government will fix all these issues. You might as well sit on the proverbial Throne. I will not speculate further. Osiris: not much as been said about this Faction, but Osiris is a god of the afterlife, ruler of the dead. He was also described as the 'Lord of Love' and the 'Lord of Silence'. Osiris might be a hope for new life after death. Osiris faction could go off in any direction, but little is known about this faction and we will have to wait and see how they apply their namesake to the situation at hand. I may defect to the Osiris Faction from FWC if I like what I see. Seven Seraphs: next to nothing is known about this faction. However, there must be 7 Seraphs! When you look up a Seraph, it is a type of celestial or heavenly being (AKA Traveler worship?). In Judaism and Christianity, it literally means: “The Burning Ones”. In the Book of Isaiah they are described as Firey, Six-winged beings that fly around the “Throne of God”, and Tradition places Seraphs in the Fifth rank of ten hierarchy (Jewish) and the Highest Ranking angelic beings in Christianity. So one might deduce that the Seven Seraphs may actually be holding out hope for other races from the universe may ‘swoop down and help defend the human race’ –maybe. Or maybe there isn’t just one Traveler. There might be more. Coming… For now, Future War Cult is the best choice for me, but I am holding out to learn more about Osiris and Seven Seraphs for more details about these two factions. As the Destiny lore begins to unfold, I may change my current view and align myself with one of these two factions instead.
