The Mediators is a conglomerate of Hive, Vex, Taken and Guardians who have bent their knee to the power of the Abstract, a power created through the unison of the power of both Light and Dark. While the Hive willingly joined the Mediators, the Vex and Guardians would be absorbed into the dark confederacy through the Abstract corruption and the Taken fell to it's influence. As a result of the coagulation of this power, Abstract Golems are created.

Hive

The Mediator Hive are a more ferocious Hive Sect due to the Abstract empowerment. They have thicker, dark green chitin engraved with deep, inscrutable patterns and have curved spikes protruding from their bodies; they have more armor than their familiars. Their cloth, robes and body paint is dark grey and white. They have a more muscular yet sickly frame, with visible black veins seen all around. Wizards have a lightish purple glow to their eyes, Ogre's heads glow red beneath the pulsating tissue, the rest still bear the iconic green eyes, even the Thrall. Higher level enemies will have a greyish, white chitin with orange and red cloth, as well as more imposing spikes and red eyes. As for the enemies:

• Thrall: The iconic cannon fodder of the Mediator Hive Cult, they still bear the same tactics: charge and overwhelm their enemies. However, they bear a more armored physique, with rigid shoulder plates, thigh and chest armor, which makes them more resistant to damage. Regardless, a well placed shot to the head will drop them near instantly, as well as a good melee (if they aren't levels higher than the player).
  • Apothican Thrall: Major variant of the Thrall. They now hulk over even Knights, but aren't as tall as Ogres The armor now almost fully covers their body and is totally impenetrable by small arms fire. Shots to it's head or explosives will depose the monstrosity, however, the Thrall can cover it's face if it begins taking damage.
  • On higher difficulties, the Thrall gets renamed: Serf on Heroic, Shrill on Midnight, and Savant on Eclipse.
• Acolyte: The shock troop of the Mediator Hive Cult, they still retain the same tactics and abilities of their familiars. A noticeable difference, however, is the throbbing boils on it's back. When prompted, it will hunch over and the boils will slowly begin to envelop it's body. It will then either metamorphose into a Proto Knight or a Proto Wizard. They can still be killed in this stance, which also makes them more permeable to damage.
