The (Attempt) to explain the Biology of the Enemy races.

*Clicks on google docs, prepares new letter* Dear Bungie (and forums), Hi!! It's me!!! Tiger!! Your worst nightmare! So upon the latest news of the new game, I decided to explore the races of destiny in further detail through their biological looks! So strap on your tinfoil hats and prepare your butts for bio class all over again!!! [b][i]First Race: Fallen[/i][/b] Everybody loves the fallen since they echo Bungie's old halo days of the Covenant. And the Fallen certainly look a lot like the Elites in some regards. But let's break them down like my stomach does chicken wings!!! Upon first glance, the Fallen have 4 eyes, 4 arms, 2 legs, mandibles, and more. Dregs have 2 arms and would grow them back if proven worthy. Is this even possible?! Growing arms back?! It must be sci fi bull💩! Actually, this is real. Some animals can grow entire limbs back, kinda like starfish. But the Fallen are more insect like yes? Can insects grow limbs back? Yes sir they can! Some like a cockroach can grow entire legs back after being squashed. FUN!! So the Fallen can regrow limbs!! Yeah!!! But is it entirely possible a sentient race can be bugs? Yes indeed. Scientists have proven through multiple studies that if there is life in space, a invertebrate insect could be the one to do it. So the Fallen get the SCIENCE!!! stamp of approval! [i][b]Race 2: Hive [/b][/i] Much like the Fallen, the Hive are more insect like than humanoid. From the thrall to the Knights, they have more evidence supporting they're invertebrates than the Fallen. The hive have exo skeletons (aka their rough looking armor) and upon further review, their mouths are shaped like mandibles. Plus the hive hatch from pods as seen on the moon, and can be mass produced by Wizards (it should be WITCHES since they're female!!!) Aside from their lore, the Hive would biologically be able to exist. [i][b]Race 3: Vex[/b][/i] Well...............🐎💩. How the -blam!- do I explain the vex?! How?! Well....I'll try my best. The vex are machines yes? But the lore says that the white fluid inside them is actually their brain. Is this even possible? Organisms that are actually fluid? Or is it just sci fi bull💩 again? It's actually true. They could be Protists. A protist is a small micro organism that lives in certain waters. These could be radioactive Protists working together to form a single mind, then dispersing. Aka, the vex. And how do I know they're radioactive? Destiny 2's inverted spire (Insert Lenny here) has a debuff zone called "Vex Radiolarian Fluid". Key word is Radiolarian. So the Vex/Hive War is just Protists vs Bugs? Ok.....'moving on! [b][i]Race 4: [u]Cabal[/u][/i][/b] http://vignette2.wikia.nocookie.net/destinypedia/images/3/31/Cabal-face.png/revision/latest?cb=20141028052913 The main antagonist of Destiny 2, the Cabal are a heavily militarized race. But, in a closer look, they are not as we all them, Space turtles. They look more like Space Rhinos. That would explain their physical attributes of being strong, and if you've noticed, their feet have metal toes, implying that they could have hoofs. We also know the Cabal need specific oils to survive outside of their home, implying that their home world could be a savannah or tropical climate. A lot is still unknown about the Cabal other than that, and it's still unsure how they could've survived out in space as Rhinos. Anyways, I DID IT!!! I USED BULL💩 SCIENCE TO EXPLAIN BULL ENEMY RACES!!!!! Hope you enjoyed! Sincerely, Tiger

  • The Porto-Hive are actually referenced as krill. So crustaceans, not insects.

      The Hive are crustaceans not insects. At least, they were at some point. Not really sure what they are now.

    • Radiolarian does not mean it's radioactive. Radiolaria (also called Radiozoa) are what the Vex mind are. They are Eukaryota that have silicon skeletons and are found throughout the Oceans. Hive have backbones, so can't be invertebrates and their 'mandible' is more human than insectoid. As for Cabal, they have a gel pumped through their suits implying they are from a high humidity world.

            • I don't get how you are using the radiolaria fact. Radiolaria does not have to do with radiation. Radiolaria are Protozoa and the word has nothing to do with radiation. They have an intricate mineral skeletons of silica. They are not radioactive as they are common through out the ocean.

                I don't see how Fallen are insects seeing that they have skeletons. (You can find their skulls pinned onto poles in the plaguelands). I always thought that they were some kind of reptilian race

                • I don't really agree on the whole wizard/ warlock/ witch thing. Seems like the concept of gender is a very fluidic thing in hive lore.

                    Destiny ghost stories did this already an have presented it in a much more clear fashion as opposed than your childish scribbles.

                  • " Plus the hive hatch from pods as seen on the moon, and can be mass produced by Wizards" well this explains all the screaming, that many pods gotta hurt.

                  • I've seen a sketch of a nude Cabal. Under the armor, he looks as you'd expect- like a retired NFL linebacker. With razor-sharp toenails. Yeah, "space rhinos" seems like an accurate description.

                      • Well, if you're going to make a post about their biology, at least take the post and yourself seriously. I've never watched Game Theorists, but judging by this post, they aren't very good at this either.
