==Biography==
During the [[Red War]] Kargen led numerous raids on Vex installations across the [[Sol System]]. Following the defeat of [[Dominus Ghaul]], Kargen turned his attention to the [[Insight Terminus]] on [[Nessus]], from which he evidently sought to obtain information regarding the OXA machine.<ref name="IS">'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]] - [[Strike]]: [[The Insight Terminus]]''</ref>
During the [[Red War]] Kargen led numerous raids on Vex installations across the [[Sol System]]. Following the defeat of [[Dominus Ghaul]], Kargen turned his attention to the [[Insight Terminus]] on [[Nessus]], which was a major Vex information depot. To aid in his mission he utilized a data artifact based on the OXA Machine.<ref name="IS">'''Bungie (2018/5/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Warmind (expansion)|Warmind]], Activision Blizzard - [[Strike]]: [[The Insight Terminus]]''</ref>


As Kargen's forces stormed the Insight Terminus, he encountered a strike team of [[Guardian]]s while accessing a Vex [[Conflux]]. Kargen quickly used the Conflux to access the local Vex gate network and escape the Guardians while also granting his forces access to more of the Insight Terminus. He attempted to stay one step ahead of the Guardians who pursued him through the Vex complex, swiftly slaughtering his way through dozens of Vex to reach the core of the Insight Terminus before them. With the access granted to him by the Conflux he manipulated, Kargen was able to bring in more Cabal reinforcements to slow the Guardians and gained nearly complete control of the local gate network. After sealing a door behind him with another Conflux, Kargen left several of his lieutenants to eliminate the Guardians, but they were all killed.<ref name="IS"/>

Upon reaching the [[Quiet Epiphany]], Kargen was confronted by several [[Minotaur]]s and a [[Hydra]], which he dispatched with a massive blast of [[Void]] energy. With his path now clear, Kargen began accessing the Insight Terminus, but the strike team of Guardians interrupted his interaction by taking control of several Vex plates in the area and creating firewalls to block his progress. Summoning more Red Legion troops through the nearby Vex gates, Kargen and his forces fought against the Guardian strike team, but they were ultimately overpowered and struck down.<ref name="IS"/>
Upon reaching the [[Quiet Epiphany]], Kargen was confronted by several [[Minotaur]]s and a [[Hydra]]. He unleashed a massive blast of [[Void]] energy and destroyed the Vex minds. With his path now clear, Kargen began accessing the Insight Terminus, but the strike team of Guardians interrupted his interaction by taking control of several Vex plates in the area and create firewalls to block his progress. Summoning more Red Legion forces through the nearby Vex gates, Kargen personally fought the three Guardians but quickly found himself being overwhelmed by them and was eventually struck down.<ref name="IS"/>
 
==="Resurrection"===
Following the Guardians' foray into the [[The Pale Heart|Pale Heart]] in pursuit of the [[The Witness|Witness]], a group of defectors within the [[Shadow Legion]] secretly commanded by [[Freeborn Otzot]] cloned Kargen and apparently restored his mind, after which he was tasked with infiltrating the Insight Terminus once again. He attempted to retrieve information about the OXA Machine and the [[Sol Divisive]]'s research into the [[The Veil|Veil]], but his efforts were thwarted by [[Maya Sundaresh]], who had identified herself as "Msund12", and another Guardian strike team, who killed him a second time.<ref>'''Bungie (2024/6/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[The Final Shape]] - [[Quest (Destiny 2)|Quest]]: [[The Oracle]]''</ref>
