Destiny warlock


Warlock

Golden eyes flashing, an awoken stretches out her hand and unleashes the solar light that burns within her. As an inferno rages around her body, spectral wings spread from her back and she takes to the air.

Long cloack whipped by a storms wind, a human spreads his arms wide and throws his head back. Lifting him momentarily off the ground, a wave of arc light surges up in him, through him, and out from him in a mighty blast of lightning.

Crouching behind a stalagmite, an exo points a hand infused with a ball of necrotic energy at a hord of charging monitor. A blast of purple neon springs from her open palm to strike the creatures. She ducks back behind the rock formation with a grin, as the necrotic ball turns her foes to dust. Warlocks carry the travellers light and study it with an unyielding dedication. Although anyone can study the uses of the light as one learns a language, its the traveller who chooses who becomes a guardian with the ability to harness it, or so it is thought.

Raw light

Light is a part of every guardian, suffusing body, mind, and spirit with a celestial power that waits within. Some warlocks wield light that surpasses the laws of physics. Others carry a raw, uncontrolled electronic power within them, a chaotic storm that manifests when called upon. Most of the time, the talents of a warlock comes from years of meditation and study, some warlocks are naturally capable. So too might the gift of a the travellers power come from exposure to the elemental forces of the universe that is the light giving a glimpse into the inner workings of reality. Warlocks have spent their time wirh books and ancient tomes of lore, but that doesn't mean that they are incapable of fighting. They have some basic combat skill and have been trained in how to use a multitude of weapons as any guardian should. But their true ability comes by learning to harness and channel their own inborn light, they can discover new and staggering ways to unleash that power.

City Consensus and Factions

This section is fore character development a player may want to add one of the following factions to their characters story or roleplay the factions ideology. A player also might wish to make their own.

Short history

Before the City was founded, the Risen joined factions located within the refugee camp beneath the Traveller. When the fighting broke out, all of the many factions were trying to seize power and control the City. The wars came to an end when the Fallen began attacking and the factions were too weak to fight. The ensuing peace treaty united the refugee camp as the Last City, and established the government of the city as the Consensus, the Vanguard, and the Speaker, to promote cooperation instead of fighting one another.

The Consensus was founded at the conclusion of the Faction Wars and was made to keep peace between the factions and the Vanguard. They authorized the attempt to retake the Moon from the Hive, against Lord Shaxx's protests. After the invasion met with disaster, they also gave the order to retreat and collected intel and casualty reports.

The Consensus makes all of the decisions regarding the security of The City, and public order. The head of the Consensus is The Speaker, who calls meeting in to order, and delivers the final say.

The Vanguard: The Vanguard is a faction that consists of high-ranking Guardians who are considered the best of their respective classes. Dedicated to the protection of humanity and the reclamation of humanities lost golden age. Prior to the Red War, the Vanguard originally resided in the Hall of Guardians in the Tower.

The new monarchy: New Monarchy advocates abolishing the Consensus and transferring governmental power from the Speaker and the consensus to an elected Monarch.

The Future War Cult: The FWC (through vex time simulation technology) believes that another war with The Darkness cannot be avoided, regardless of whether they stay in or flee the City; therefore they must be ready to fight.

Dead Orbit: Dead Orbit wants to abandon the City and intend to escape the dying Earth before The Darkness returns, as they've no longer believe the Traveller can protect humanity and put little faith in The City's ability to hold out against a major attack.

Creating a Warlock

Creating a warlock character demands a backstory dominated by at least one extraordinary event. How did your character first come into contact with the light? How did you discover you had an aptitude for it? Do you have a natural talent, or did you simply study hard and practice incessantly? Did you encounter a guardian that passed on some power to you or did a ghost wake you from death? What drew you forth from your life of study? Did your first taste of knowledge leave you hungry for more? Have you received word of a secret repository of knowledge not yet plundered by any other warlock? Perhaps you’re simply eager to put your newfound skills to the test in the face of danger.

Connection to a higher power

Though in the the destiny games it is not out-rightly stated, it is my interpretation that a Guardians Light is some how connected to for lack of a better word their soul, and the soul of the traveller. This somehow turns a resurrected Guardian in to Para-causes being and allows them to harness the power of theirs souls to gain immortality, super human abilities and to be able manipulate the fabric of the universe (all be it to a limited degree) around them.

  • Benefit (Resurrection) At 1st level, Your ever faithful companion and connection to the traveller, your ghost has brought you back from the dead. Though you have shattered memories of your past life, but that's not important now.
