[b]Fenrir's Fangs[/b]
[i]"Your enemies want war. Bring them Ragnarok"[/i]
They were the ones that had lost it all in the collapse: family, friends, and wealth. All that remained was the shared experience of loss at the hands of the darkness and the hate that came with it. From this hate a group of refugees became a family, helping one another fight through the days and nights when The City wasn't quite safe. One day they agreed that safety, the Traveler, and the Last City no longer mattered. So the group left The City to take revenge on the enemy that had stolen everyone and everything they loved. They had no rules and showed no mercy. They accepted no surrender and left no survivors. They refused to succumb to their fears. They employed guerrilla tactics, decimated their foes with biological agents, conducted brutal interrogations and assassinated key targets.
All this they did before the traveler created ghosts, before they could wield His Light as a weapon, before they could return from death. But their group was small, and mistakes happened, brothers and sisters were lost and their numbers dwindled. One night, at the gates of The City during a storm, the last of the Hunters returned. The guards only noticed him when the sound of his laughter, which many would swear froze the very rain around him, rose above the roar of the storm. The Hunter dropped to his knees. As guards rushed down from the wall to reach him, the storm calmed, and the Hunter stared up at the moon. In one hand he held his knife and in the other he grasped pieces of torn fabric, each with their own emblem, from the cloaks of his family. From the stream of blood running down both hands and arms the guards knew the Hunter was dying. His last words were "We are the Fault's of Fenrir, bringers of war and our father was misfortune. Know that we did our damned best to avenge everything that was lost, and that no moral chain held us back. We killed Gods, and we smiled."

[b][u]The Crisis in Lagash[/u][/b]

On Venus, In the ancient city of Lagash, increased Vex activity had caught the attention of the Vanguard. A gate had opened in the city center and something huge had come through. Four raiding parties had been sent to shut down the gate and had gone missing. Two hunters, Ashur and Marduk, responded to the threat. Mad with power, a twisted machine-god sought to enslave all of creation. Trapped in the ruined city without their ghosts, the Twin hunters battled for their survival against endless waves of Vex. On that day Lagash was lost forever, but the threat to mankind had been quelled.
The armor they wore into battle tattered and ruined, Ashur and Marduk sought out parts to create a new functional set of armor for the battles that lie ahead.

[i]"...For he is not of this day."[/i]
Ashur, having a flair for the dramatic, gathered the remnants of Vex Goblins and Harpies scattered across the battlefield to repair his armor. His ghost, Enuma, scanned each piece to ensure its integration into the armor wouldn't be problematic but, beyond a few cryptic data strings hard-coded in the robotic remains, didn't find anything that a routine data wipe wouldn't fix.
[b] Shinarian King [/b]
[i]"A single guardian is worth a hundred dark-spawned gods."[/i]
Marduk, who enjoyed taking a more subtle approach when gathering trophies from his battles, searched for hours meticulously collecting just the right pieces of scraps from the core of the twisted machine-god - not too sharp but not too smooth, not too big but not too small either. Not one to be seen in the tower without a stunning cloak, he gathered the golden cloth that had once enrobed the metal abomination, reduced to scraps of cloth flapping in the wind, and stitched together a regal cape.

Shinarian King - Might be my favorite, if that hasn't been taken by Fenrir's Fangs, the god-like trophy taking thing is pretty epic. Fenrir's Fangs - Heavy wolf folklore their lol, the actual outfit is epic, the dark vengence look is awesome. Equal to or better then Shinarian King Phalcon-Skism MPC - Not my most favorite but the chest piece is epic, seems to be more of a make-shift armor type which is interesting but not my kind of thing, still nice though.
-
yet again another great batch of skins zukai, and the story of Fenrir's Fangs sent chills down my spine one of the best stories so far in the pre release. The quote sold it "We killed gods, and we smiled"
-
I would actually play a hunter if that's what they looked like
-
Man, that stuff is great!
-
Fenrirs fangs all day long. Nice work!
-
They look brilliant! Well done.
-
Looks like diablo 3 armor... I love it
-
This looks like higher quality & well thought out designs, besides looking a bit warlockish, compared to current decision made by bungie designers... Hunters still have the ugliest gear in the game. Even after the dlc
-
-
Shinarian King helmet reminds me of The Guyver...
-
I hate all all end game stuff looks evil. I want my hunter and titan to look as if they were born from the light and not in a hive hellhole
-
That Shinarian King though...
-
first two look too much like Warlocks, nice design tho. that King one is nice, feels like Assassin's Creed tho. may just be the dro bro. i don't know yo.
-
Hot damn these are nice. Well done, props to all involved!!
-
The Phalcon armor looks sick. I actually want it now.
-
-

Edited by Mizo: 2/8/2015 2:21:59 AMThis looks so badass! You should work for Bungie's designing team.
-
The first two look like warlocks.
-
Pleasssssseeeee work at Bungie. Please for the love of everything that is good and gorgeous in this world. I want my Titan to look as sexy as those hunters.
