Siegfried tore through the mucus-seal blocking the entrance to the cavern and proceeded inside. Inside, he discovered a horrifying scene, as foul Hive fluids dripped from the ceiling around a twisted mid-metamorphosis Knight that was fused into a pillar of gore and tentacles. Expressing his disgust for the vile sight, Siegfried approached the Cryptolith as the Knight's eyes followed him. However, two [[Ogre]]s emerged from next to the Knight from what he had assumed were chitin covered walls. He swiftly drew his [[Invective]] and cut down the first Ogre, but the second began assaulting him and hit him with its arm, sending the Titan into a nearby wall. As the Ogre began shooting a beam of energy from its eye, Siegfried brought up a barricade to protect himself. While the barricade held, the Ogre approached and Siegfried began gathering arc energy for a counterattack. The Ogre was suddenly staggered by a sniper shot which Siegfried traced back to a man perched in a tunnel entrance on the opposite side of the cavern. Three more shots brought the Ogre to its knees, and Siegfried took advantage of the assistance to finish it off by slamming it into the ground and bringing his arc-charged arms down upon its skull. Turning back to his savior, Siegfried saw the man was gone, and proceeded to spend the rest of the night gathering samples from the regenerating structure. Returning to Petra in the morning, he warned her about the regenerative abilities of the spire and shared his worries that it was an expansion of a large site before offering to narrow down the location of their next strike. The Regent-Commander thanked him and asked that he instead rest before they took the samples to the [[Techeun]]s the next day.<ref name="WHPlate"/>

Biography

Hunting Sola

"It's affecting Ghosts now too. We should bring them back to the City. This makes five."
— Siegfried, noting the increasing levels of corruption amongst the Guardians

Siegfried partnered with Aunor Mahal to hunt down Sola Scath, a rogue Warlock who had ferried another Lightbearer out to one of the Darkness-associated gravitational anomalies moving along the outer regions of the Sol System. As the other Lightbearer had not returned with her, they suspected Sola of having killed them and sought to bring her in for questioning and holding for her crimes. During their confrontation with Sola she managed to shoot Siegfried through the heart, but Aunor managed to defeat her. Ogden revived him and began repairing his armor as Aunor interrogated Sola but was forced to put her down when the Warlock attempted to attack her once more. Aunor wondered if they should have Sola's Ghost revive her for more questioning, but Siegfried wiped the blood off his armor and noted that her initial answers seemed pretty clear. However, Sola's Ghost proved uncooperative as well, forcing Siegfried to send a bolt of Arc energy into it to temporarily disable it. As he picked up their captives to take back to their Jumpship, Siegfried worried that the recent corruption amongst Guardians was spreading now to their Ghosts. He suggested they take them back to The Last City and noted that Sola was the fifth one that had become corrupted recently.[1]

The Wrathborn

Beneath the Mists

Shortly after returning to the Last City from a mission, Siegfried was secretly assigned by Commander Zavala and Ikora Rey to assist Regent-Commander Petra Venj in investigating a strange new Hive corruption in the Dreaming City.[2] Upon arriving in the Awoken city, Siegfried met with Petra and travelled with her in a skimmer towards the site of one of the mysterious Cryptoliths that had emerged. As they travelled, Siegfried noted he had never been in that region of the Dreaming City and was informed that much of the city had still not been seen by the Guardians. They began discussing the mission, with Petra handing him field notes she and her soldiers had taken on the threat they faced and warning him the Hive he would face were vicious. Dryly noting that he typically found that to be the case, Siegfried vowed that he would ensure no harm befell the Corsairs she sent with him and was sure they would have his back as well. He was concerned that the Hive corruption was affecting fauna and sapient beings and that it seemed to be spreading, questioning how the Awoken were combating it. Petra noted the corruption spread from a central artifact and explained they needed to examine it for answers before destroying it. Siegfried was not pleased with that, believing that any Darkness associated items should be destroyed, but acquiesced to her request as she had command of the mission while intending to recommend to the Vanguard eradication or containment for future operations. Petra noted the Vanguard seemed more focused on Europa and the Darkness there according to Eris Morn's reports, but Siegfried sternly declared the Hunter a traitor, causing Petra to snarl and state that Eris's aid suggested otherwise. The Regent-Commander noted that this deployment might be good for him by exposing other points of view, but Siegfried declared that any deployment where his Light might shine upon their enemies was good.[3]

Upon arriving at the staging grounds within the Divalian Mists, Siegfried and Petra briefed the six Corsairs under his command. Greeting them, Siegfried declared that the Vanguard stood with the Awoken and he would serve as their spearhead. Donning his helmet, he vowed not to fail them and began leading the advance towards the Hive caverns. The seven cut through scores of Thrall to advance and gain ground toward their objective. Eventually a Knight leading a group of Acolytes blocked their path. As the Corsairs dealt with the Acolytes, Siegfried engaged the Knight. He quickly produced two flashbang grenades and blinded his foe, narrowly avoiding a deadly sword strike. He then gathered Arc energy and launched himself into the Knight, destroying the Hive warrior. Halting to catch his breath, Siegfried noted the tunnels opened to a chamber ahead, which Ogden confirmed with a quick scan contained their target. He ordered the Corsairs to fall back and form a perimeter while he advanced alone, as the Light would protect him from the Hive's corruption, and warned them to retreat if he did not return.[4]

Siegfried tore through the mucus-seal blocking the entrance to the cavern and proceeded inside. Inside, he discovered a horrifying scene, as foul Hive fluids dripped from the ceiling around a twisted mid-metamorphosis Knight that was fused into a pillar of gore and tentacles. Expressing his disgust for the vile sight, Siegfried approached the Cryptolith as the Knight's eyes followed him. However, two Ogres emerged from next to the Knight from what he had assumed were chitin covered walls. He swiftly drew his Invective and cut down the first Ogre, but the second began assaulting him and hit him with its arm, sending the Titan into a nearby wall. As the Ogre began shooting a beam of energy from its eye, Siegfried brought up a barricade to protect himself. While the barricade held, the Ogre approached and Siegfried began gathering arc energy for a counterattack. The Ogre was suddenly staggered by a sniper shot which Siegfried traced back to a man perched in a tunnel entrance on the opposite side of the cavern. Three more shots brought the Ogre to its knees, and Siegfried took advantage of the assistance to finish it off by slamming it into the ground and bringing his arc-charged arms down upon its skull. Turning back to his savior, Siegfried saw the man was gone, and proceeded to spend the rest of the night gathering samples from the regenerating structure. Returning to Petra in the morning, he warned her about the regenerative abilities of the spire and shared his worries that it was an expansion of a large site before offering to narrow down the location of their next strike. The Regent-Commander thanked him and asked that he instead rest before they took the samples to the Techeuns the next day.[4]

Personality and Traits

As a member of the dogmatic Praxic Order Siegfried held strict standards for Guardians and their interaction or association with anything related to the Darkness. He regarded Eris Morn as a traitor to humanity for her actions, including the embrace of Stasis, a belief that he was not afraid to voice directly to Eris's friend Petra Venj while working with her.[3]

During the Red War Siegfried grew a large beard, which was a rarity amongst Guardians. He liked it and kept it after the war ended. He styled his hair in a thick flaxen braid down the middle with the sides shaved. He wore a pair of polished Dunemarchers as part of his gear set and wielded a copy the shotgun Invective into battle.[3]
