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> | ||

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. | |||
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> | |||

Early ''[[Destiny]]'' concepts mentioned [[Charlemagne]] being a separate entity from Rasputin and a Warmind of its own, "one of the great Warminds of the Golden Age—a vast machine intelligence built by the ancient Powers of Mars".<ref name="ides">[https://www.bungie.net/en-us/News/Article/10337 '''Bungie.net''' - ''The Ides of Mail Sack'']</ref> | |||
