During the Hive's [[Siege of the Warmind|siege]] of Rasputin's bunker, Eris sends the Guardian to stop their advance from either destroying or corrupting the Warmind. When they reach the center of the bunker, however, Omnigul and her [[Watcher of Crota|Watchers of Crota]] ambushed them by summoning waves of Hive reinforcements directly at the Guardian. When proven ineffective, Omnigul summons the [[Might of Crota]] before escaping yet again.<ref | During the Hive's [[Siege of the Warmind|siege]] of Rasputin's bunker, Eris sends the Guardian to stop their advance from either destroying or corrupting the Warmind.

Ultimately, Omnigul's efforts at bringing back Crota would be for naught as her summoning ritual was disrupted and her spawn hunted by Guardians, until she herself was left pursued by a [[Strike]] [[fireteam]] in an attempt to raise a new army beneath [[Skywatch]]. Despite her efforts at stirring the [[House of Kings]] against the Guardians, she was finally cornered at the [[Jovian Complex]] and killed, putting an end to her schemes. <ref>'''Bungie (2014/12/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Dark Below]], [[The Will of Crota]]''</ref> | Ultimately, Omnigul's efforts at bringing back Crota would be for naught as her summoning ritual was disrupted and her spawn hunted by Guardians, until she herself was left pursued by a [[Strike]] [[fireteam]] in an attempt to raise a new army beneath [[Skywatch]].

Shortly after the [[SIVA Crisis]], Omnigul would make a brief return to [[Skywatch]] after having "undone" her death to continue her work, only to be swiftly killed again by the Guardian and their fireteam.

Following the discovery of the [[Pyramid]] beneath Luna's surface, the Hive under [[Hashladûn, Daughter of Crota|Hashladûn]], a daughter of Omnigul and Crota, use its strange energies to create phantasm-like [[Nightmares]]. Constructing the eerie [[Scarlet Keep]] fortress near the Pyramid, Hashladûn aimed to use the Pyramid's power to exact her revenge against the Guardians for destroying her lineage.

The newly formed [[Nightmare of Omnigul, Will of Crota]], representing the Essence of Anguish, would become a target in the Guardians' [[Nightmare Hunts]] to contain the Pyramid's influences. | ||

Omnigul is the only Wizard with an [[Arc]] [[Absorption Shield]] instead of a [[Solar]] shield. She can summon Hive and casts poison with greater frequency. Unlike normal Wizards, Omnigul fires her Darkness Blasts faster and more accurately than normal. However, unlike any other Ultra class enemies, she can be blinded by flashbang grenades, Ward of Dawn with the Helm of Saint-14 equipped, and the Purifier Robes. | |||

Just like last time, she will stay in the center of the arena and suppress [[Guardian]]s with her rapid fire Darkness Blasts as well as cast poison clouds for area denial. However, she will have locked the door that [[Guardian]]s would normally run through for cover, trapping the players inside for the duration of the fight. The room will eventually get filled with a toxic gas that drastically slows the movement of any player that steps in it. Whenever reinforcements arrive, she will teleport away from the arena until all the reinforcements are dead. This will repeat until she herself is killed for good. | ||
