Who will die at the end of this season? We all think someone will, but maybe it won't be who we think. Below is my list of the possible fates for our intrepid casts of Guardians and associates. I posted some of these a few months ago, but it's time for a more complete list. I hope you get some laughs from it. Feel free to add your own speculations in the comments. And now on to the (rather long) doom watch: First, our heavy hitters. Surely leading a life of danger can end unexpectedly? ----- Commander Zavala: The legendary Commander had a freak accident when he fatally fell climbing up on his bookcase to turn on his dance tape, which he inexplicably kept on a really high shelf. Ikora Rey: While experimenting to make her Void Nova Bomb more powerful she accidentally created a mini black hole and instantly vanished, along with most of the Tower in her vicinity. A survivor swore he heard her say "Well there goes the neighborhood" as she was sucked into the vortex. Lord Shaxx: Shaxx's personal combat frame, Arcite 99-40, still resentful that Shaxx demoted him to be his personal valet, gets his revenge when Shaxx berates him, saying “Arcite, bring me that haggis while I call this match. No, those are bullets... never mind, I’ll get it myself...” Actually, they weren't bullets, they were grenades. A lot of them. Live ones. Too many for Shaxx to handle. Oh, Shaxx, you didn't throw enough grenades. Saint 14: Saint 14 was warned that feeding pigeons in the landing zone was not a wise thing to do. Flocks of birds can be sucked into jet engines and cause terrible crashes, something Saint 14 found out the hard way when trying to land in the Tower one day. Lord Saladin: Saladin, always so grim and serious, overheard a joke between two Guardians in the Tower who noted Saladin just scowled at them. When one of the Guardians chided Saladin by saying "Come on Lord, would it kill you to laugh?" Saladin, never one to turn down a challenge, tried to crack a smile and forced out a small chuckle before keeling over. Yes, turns it would. Osiris: Commander Zavala got extremely jealous when he overheard Ghost referring to Osiris as the "Zavala before Zavala" and decided to make sure that Osiris would never regain Zavala's job. Of course, the real reason for wanting to eliminate Osiris is that Osiris once caught Zavala dancing in his office to his mixtape and mercilessly mocked his moves and musical taste. Nobody mocks Zavala and lives. Empress Caiatl: Fond of saying "We are Cabal. We eat the mountains, and drink the seas", she decided to actually try that one day. Ever overindulge and feel like you're going to explode? Yeah, well try eating a mountain. But you got to chalk up the Empress' fate to the well-known fault of the Cabal biting off more than they can chew. Rasputin: When he realized he couldn't defeat the Darkness, he went dark and just hoped to survive. Unfortunately, when trying to come back from this MIDNIGHT EXIGENT protocol he uploaded his code into an abandoned, ancient Windows 95 computer instead of the Tower mainframe and promptly overwhelmed the poor machine, causing a rather permanent Blue Screen of Death. Ana Bray: Went to investigate one of those Warmind satellites that are constantly falling to see if Rasputin had uploaded himself into it and she, unfortunately, misjudged where it was going to land. But the satellite does actually serve as an impressive headstone though. Elisabeth "Elsie" Bray: When a Guardian asked her what she was doing when the Guardian caught her messing around with some really dangerous old tech she found on Europa, she said "I don't even have time to explain why I don’t have time to explain" just before being blown to smithereens. Guess she should have taken a bit of time to explain. Some people live among the mysteries. Sometimes danger can lurk there. ----- The Spider: Gets accidentally assassinated by Petra Venj after Petra was ordered by Mara Sov to kill 'that gross spider' but didn't realize Mara Sov just wanted Petra to kill a spider that was creeping around in Mara's throne room. Petra Venj: Petra's little knife trick gets out of control one day, as it inevitably was going to. There's a reason parents tell their kids to not play with knives. Mara Sov: Gets overthrown and pushed through a portal to oblivion by Petra Venj when she decides one day that she quite liked it when she was boss and wasn't getting ordered around by an imperious and somewhat snarky leader to do things like kill spiders in the throne room and other such menial tasks. The Crow: Left the Tower to 'find himself' which turned out to be an unwise quest when he found and reclaimed his Uldren Sov identity and made that known to all the Guardians in the Tower on his return. Let's just say a lot of heavily armed Guardians were still sore about what happened to Cayde-6. The Drifter: He was running a Gambit session one day and the whole thing suddenly had a catastrophic crash, wiping everyone out of the Destiny universe forever. But some Guardians think he must have gone to a better place and is now with the unseen gods that guide every Guardian's moves. And now we move on to our vendors in the Tower. Will they be safe? Maybe not! ----- Ada-1: While still trying to figure out how to run the transmog loom, she has an unfortunate accident because she insists on wearing a loose, flowing cape around moving machinery. Amanda Holliday: She tries to create an armed sparrow but while test driving it in the EDC gets mistaken for a Fallen on a Pike by a trigger-happy Guardian, and well, it doesn't go so good for her. Banshee-44: With his reoccurring memory issues, he finds out the hard way where he put the explosives he misplaced. Master Rahool: Constantly churning out disappointing or bad decodings of engrams for heavily armed Guardians was going to turn out poorly one day. Suraya Hawthorne: After spending day after day standing right on the steep edge of the Tower, she gets bored and starts to wonder if her cape will let her glide as well as her bird. Spoiler alert: It doesn't. Tess Everis: Finds out one day that the repair-bots that patched up the side of her Eververse shop that got crushed by debris from the Almighty missed a hole in her floor. And of course, let's not forget our friends living in the dangerous reaches of the Solar System. What hazards lurk for them? ----- Devrim Kay: Finally drinks some tea contaminated by the Taken blights. He apparently said it tasted surprisingly minty before keeling over. Eris Morn: When a deadly emergency arises on the Moon, she calls to the Guardians in the Tower for help but talks so slowly that she gets overwhelmed before she can explain what the crisis is. Turns out it didn't matter anyway since the Guardians who took the call got bored and stopped listening and instead started a conga line in the Tower to amuse themselves. Failsafe: Its two warring personalities finally take things to the next level and delete each other. Apparently, this was, ironically, a failsafe should the AI develop a split personality. But some say it was a dormant virus that Cayde-6 planted in Failsafe for calling him dumb. Shaw Han: Looks too closely and too long at himself in the mirror one day and accidentally bores himself to death. Variks: He was warned about the heavy traffic Charon's Landing where dozens of Guardians constantly zipped by on their Sparrows, but despite having all those eyes, didn't see the one that hit him when he stepped outside for fresh air. Must have been texting or something... Xur: He said to Guardians "Do not be alarmed, I have no reason to cause you harm" but it was obvious some of them didn't believe him. Or maybe they just got too frustrated waiting for a Lighting Round in Dares of Eternity so they could finally get that darn sword. There we go. Who will live and who will die? Only time will tell.
