A '''Warmind''' is a military artificial intelligence designed for strategic orbital or land warfare.

A '''Warmind''' is a military artificial intelligence designed for strategic orbital or land warfare. [[Rasputin]], ''the'' Warmind, is the only surviving AI of this kind, though there might be more in the past. Rasputin used to coordinate the [[Planetary Defense Network|network]] of hardened planet-side military installations and countless [[Warsat]]s built during the [[Golden Age]]. A Warmind is so complex and intelligent that even the [[Vex]] are supposed to be unable simulating them.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-9-4)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies#Ghost Fragment: Vex 3|Ghost Fragment: Vex 3]]''</ref>


==Overview==
==Overview==
According to [[Ikora Rey]], [[Rasputin]] is the only Warmind in existence, or at least the only Warmind to survive the [[Collapse]]. Although several Warmind vaults across the system remain intact and functional centuries later, they lie empty.<ref name="Fury">'''Bungie (2017-9-8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], Activision Blizzard: [[Fury]]''</ref> A fragment of Rasputin was marooned on [[Earth]] in the [[Cosmodrome]] due to the fragmentation of the Warmind network,<ref name="Fury"/> but is able to remotely access some off-world installations thanks to the re-activation of the [[Terrestrial Complex]] comms array.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-9-15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Ghost_Fragment:_Rasputin_2|Ghost Fragment: Rasputin 2]]''</ref> After the defeat of [[Xol]] and [[Nokris]], this fragment was reconnected to the greater Rasputin intelligence in the [[Hellas Basin]] region on [[Mars]].

While the relationship between the two is currently unknown, investigations by [[Tyra Karn]] uncovered the existence of [[Submind]]s alongside their Warmind counterparts. Currently the only three Subminds known to exist are [[Charlemagne]], [[Voluspa]], and [[Malahayati]], the three of which were paired with Rasputin. It appears that these minds were once mistakenly regarded by scholars within the City as being Warminds in and of themselves.<ref>[https://www.destinythegame.com/uk/en/expansion2 '''Bungie''': ''Destiny 2 Narrative Preview'']</ref> Nonetheless there may be other Warmind intelligences separate from Rasputin in existence.<ref name="Rasputin"/>
As far as is known, Rasputin was the only functioning Warmind at the time of the [[Collapse]]. The idea of multiple Warminds beyond Rasputin is reflected in several places across ''[[Destiny]]''. [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Earth#Ghost_Fragment:_Old_Russia_3|Ghost Fragment: Old Russia 3]] refers to Rasputin as "the brooding wary first-among-equals"<ref name="OR3">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Earth#Ghost_Fragment:_Old_Russia_3|Ghost Fragment: Old Russia 3]]''</ref>; [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Rasputin#Rasputin|Rasputin]] mentions some other Warminds that fought and died during the [[Collapse]] and suggests that "Rasputin’s survival opens the possibility that other Warminds may be revivable"<ref name="Rasputin">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Rasputin#Rasputin|Rasputin]]''</ref>. [[Tyra Karn]] spent a decade in the search of the alleged ''second'' Warmind, the [[Charlemagne]], only to find it being merely a submind of Rasputin.<ref name="tyra">[[Weblore]]: [[Tyra]]</ref> [[Malahayati]], the "submind" appearing in [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Earth#Ghost_Fragment:_Old_Russia_3|Ghost Fragment: Old Russia 3]], is understood to be another submind of Rasputin as well.


The idea of multiple Warminds beyond Rasputin is reflected in several sources as Rasputin is referred to as "the brooding wary first-among-equals".<ref name="OR3">'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Earth#Ghost_Fragment:_Old_Russia_3|Ghost Fragment: Old Russia 3]]''</ref> While other Warminds are suggested to have fought and died during the [[Collapse]].<ref name="Rasputin">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Rasputin#Rasputin|Rasputin]]''</ref> Tyra Karn spent a decade in the search of the alleged ''second'' Warmind, Charlemagne, only to find it being merely a submind of Rasputin.<ref name="tyra">[[Weblore]]: [[Tyra]]</ref>
One of numerous far-off legends about the [[Nine]]'s nature claims they are "deep-orbit warminds who weathered the Collapse in hardened stealth platforms".<ref name="Legends 2">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard'', ''[[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Legends_2| Ghost Fragment: Legends 2]]''</ref>
