Hey all you guardians and other on the internets! I'm currently writing a Destiny Fan Fiction about the game through the eyes of my character. Not sure where to put this so i thought it'd be safe to put it here. Any type of feedback is appreciated. Here's what I've gotten so far:
She straightened her scope and took a breath.
“One shot, one kill.” she said in her head repeatedly.
Time started to slow down around her. As she pulled the trigger, the bullet escaped the barrel and hit its target. The strange goblin looking robot body, named vex, exploded and sprayed a fluorescent liquid about the area.
“Is the minotaur down?” said my partner through the intercom.
“Target has been eliminated. Move up.” I repeat through the intercom several times.
My name is TK. My full name embarrassingly enough, is ThaKidd. I’m a hunter in this post-Golden Age world. I was resurrected by my ghost, a piece of the traveler, a mystical sphere shaped being that brought many technological innovations. The traveler terraformed planets and gave us the tech and abilities to colonize them. But them something came and ruined all that. Something unknown. We call it the darkness, an unknown force like the traveler. There was a great battle between the traveler and the darkness. What happened after is known as the collapse. This is the world we live in. Aliens of all sorts have moved onto the planets we colonized. We, the guardians, are here to drive the darkness back.
After defeating our target, my partner, AKA, headed back to the city, the only place still protected by the travelers now silent body. We went into the tower, a place where guardians came to rest, turn in and receive bounties, and revel in the stories of many guardians who had just came back from expeditions.
Per my usual routine, I turned in my completed bounties to CRXX-29, an exo who had the responsibility of handling bounties. The Exo are a race of self-aware machines who, unlike the vex, were capable of having emotions. I on the other hand, am an awoken. We are a race of transcendent human like beings. Since I was adopted by a Exo family, I don't really know anymore than this about my kind.
Next in my routine is to take a visit to the cryptarch. Cryptarchs are people who have dedicated their lives to the study of ancient digitized artifacts from the Golden Age. If you find any engrams, which are essentially pieces of materialized code, they can decrypt them for you and you will receive an item. After I visit the cryptarch, I will usually organize my new items, equip any new gear, and head back out to orbit in my ship. AKA and I decided to head out to old Russia and see if any Fallen were stirring up trouble. The Fallen, just like their name suggests, were a race of aliens split up into 4 noble houses. The houses “fell from grace” when the darkness attacked their planet. Subsequently, they fled to earth and started to ravage the already wrecked surface looking for anything they could use to survive. Once on the ground, we received reports that Riksis, a Devil Archon (“Devil” for the House of Devils), was deploying his house to steal the warp drives from crashed ships of guardians years past.
“This'll be a quick job. In and out without any problems. Got it?”, AKA said to me solemnly.
“Alright, alright. I do want to try out my new sniper rifle though. Payed 1400 glimmer for this thing.”
“It had better been worth it then. Trying out any of those new modifiers on it?”
“I infused a little Arc damage into it. Should penetrate the captains shield easier.” I cocked my gun and looked down the sights.
“Lets hope it does.” AKA summoned his sparrow and sped off toward the objective.
We went into the old cosmodrome, a place where scientists would gather to observe the stars and planets of space. Before the Collapse, it was a place of much insight into places beyond our solar system. AKA stopped outside the location in the cosmodrome Riksis was stated to be in.
He called me over to him.“No stupid moves in there. I want you to focus on Riksis. I'll take out all his cronies.”
“Affirmative.” I replied quickly. I was ready to get this done and over with.
We ran into the room. There was an open skylight pouring light into the room. In the middle of the large, expansive room were a group of Vandal and Dreg fallen wearing red, showing they belonged to the house of Devils. AKA started a mad dash towards them. Started the yelled and started to shoot. Out of a large hole a silhouette of a fallen leader appeared.
“It's in the walls!!” My ghost exclaimed.
I pulled out my new sniper rifle and aimed, poised to shoot. Riksis jumped out of the wall, and screamed triumphantly. I took a shot at his legs to get him off balance. He barely even flinched at the shot! Surprised, I pulled out my Cydonia-R3 auto rifle and began to pelt him with bullets. He turned his attention to me and started to fire his shrapnel rifle. AKA and I rushed behind a pillar to take cover.
Gasping for breath, AKA asks, “Can you use it?”
“Yea. Are you ready to finish this?”
“Let's go.”
I sprint out and pull out a hand cannon, but there are no bullets inside. I summon all the power endowed to me by the traveler and form three bullets made from solar energy. I take aim at Riksis, and polish him off with the three shots. He evaporates into glowing ash and dust that dissipates into nothing.
AKA pats me on the back. “Great job TK. Looks like you still got it in 'ya.”
“Thanks-” Out of the corner of my eye I notice someone walking out if the shadows. I brandish my gun at them, ready to fire. “Who's there!?”
A female Exo, dressed in what looks like hunter gear, walks out, carrying a scout rifle.
“Well done. You will do good in the fight against the darkness.”
“Who are you? And what are you doing here?”, I yell out to her.
“That information is not important. However, just know that I will be watching you. You will be an important person in the battles to come. You too, AKA.” She suddenly teleported away.
“What was that all about? And what did she mean by the battles to come?” AKA says.
“I don't know. But I just want to get back to the tower at this point. C'mon. Lets get outta here.”
Our ghosts transport us into our ships and we head back to the tower. Who was that mysterious Exo. I had heard of rumors of a strange Exo in the wilderness but... I decided to just ignore it and focus on what was ahead. Right now, we needed to talk to the speaker, the man who speaks for the traveler while it slumbers. Talking to him will help us find out our next step to beating back the darkness.

The best advice I can give for this is to stop explaining things to the reader. A good story teaches the reader about its world through actions and character interaction. I don't want to feel like I'm reading the Grimoire.
