Destiny 2
Osiris . It ’s a name that player ofDestinyandDestiny 2should at the very least discern . The " Trials of Osiris " multiplayer effect from the first secret plan is named after him . He ’s been referenced repeatedly in both games , but characters seldom mouth of him openly .
Who is Osiris ? What ’s his curse ? And why is he the focus of the first enlargement face pack forDestiny 2,Curse of Osiris ? Let ’s bust it down .
grant to Bungie’sextensiveDestinylore , Osiris was a human Warlock and one - time apprentice to the Speaker . His heroism in one of the earliest battle fought after the building of the City allowed him to rise to the position of Vanguard Commander — the same berth now hold by Zavala . extremely well-thought-of and fiercely skilled , he was also the mentor of Ikora Rey , current instance of the Warlock course among the Vanguard leadership .
thing get sidelong for Osiris when he became obsessed with solving the secret surrounding the nature of the Traveler , the Guardians , and the Traveler ’s puzzling enemy , the Darkness . He was particularly concerned in prophecies environ the arrival of Oryx — which came truthful , inThe Taken King — and the enigma of the Vex .
Over prison term , he came up with theory that other Guardians regard blasphemous , and he began using City resources to stab profoundly into his obsessions . Those obsession drove him sick , to the point that the Speaker was force to depone him from his Vanguard side and exile him from Earth . It appears that he still has his Light powers , though .
formally , the Vanguard has no musical theme what happened to him after that , beyond a undefined report that he exit to Mercury . But based on thejust - released trailerforCurse of Osiris , it seems that at least one Guardian has on the Q.T. been keeping tab on him : his protégé , Ikora Rey . Given his interest in the Vex , it should n’t be surprising that Osiris turned up on the closest planet to our sun — a planet now used by the Vex as part of its universal hive mind connection .
InDestiny 2 , players find out that Mercury was being mine to the point of break aside by the Cabal , to fuel Ghaul ’s Sunday - killer weapon , the Almighty . It ’s unknown how much of it was broken off from the satellite proper , but theCurse of Osiristrailer suggest that it ’s still at least partly entire .
So what ’s Osiris ' curse ? That ’s anybody ’s supposition , but the poke make it seem as though it has something to do with an impendent invasion by Vex . It ’s been rumored for a while that the Vex have memory access to fourth dimension travel , possibly even seeing through time to aline their tactics ; the poke is the first confirmation that this may be dead on target . Perhaps in add up to understand the Vex , Osiris begin to see through time as well , and that has something to do with his curse ?
There ’s one more furrow to this taradiddle , though . Some time later , another Guardian from Osiris ' time , an EXO key out Saint-14 , hazard to Mercury to find Osiris and learn what he was doing there . But Saint-14 vanished during this commission and no one knows what pass off to him . It ’s potential that he could still be on Mercury , look for or working with Osiris .
What occur to Osiris , and what he know about the Vex and possiblythe Darknessas well , will be revealed whenCurse of Osirisarrives on December 5th .
