| The '''Awoken''' are a race of humanoids living in the [[City]]<ref>[http://www.bungie.net/en-us/destiny#page=story&panel=story-The-City '''Bungie.net''': ''The City'']</ref> and beyond.
| |
| | |
| ==Characteristics==
| |
| Awoken are standoffish<ref>[http://gamelynch.com/previews/destiny-preview/ Gamelynch: ''Destiny Preview]''</ref> and resemble baseline [[human]]s, with the notable exception of having pale blue or gray skin. They also have luminescent eyes with glowing irises.<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard.''</ref>
| |
| | |
| It is said the Awoken were born in the [[Collapse]], descended from those humans who tried to flee its wrath. Something happened to them out on the edge of the deep Black, and they were forever changed. Today many Awoken live in [[the Reef]], aloof and mysterious, but others returned to [[Earth]], where their descendants now fight for the [[City]]. Earthborn awoken sometimes venture out to the Reef, hoping to learn its secrets - but find no special welcome from the reclusive [[Queen of the Reef|queen]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014-6-12)''', ''Destiny: Alpha PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Guardian#Awoken|Awoken]]''</ref>
| |
| | |
| Beyond physical appearances, the Awoken seem to possess powers and abilities beyond their human ancestors. The [[Techeun]]s are a particularly notable example, though ordinary Awoken can also experience visions in the form of dreams.<ref>'''Bungie (2015-9-19)''', ''Destiny: House of Wolves, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Enemies#Skolas: Defeated]]''</ref>

They mentioned the team looked at elves, vampires, ghosts, and angels to "capture that exotic, sort of ethereal feel".<ref>[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cfqFiyIhrb4 '''YouTube''', ''Destiny - News GDC Panel'']</ref> They have been described as being of "otherworldly origins."<ref>[http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/apr/28/destiny-hands-on-bungie-xbox-playstationshared-world-shooter '''The Guardian''': ''how the makers of Halo plan to change the future of shooters'']</ref>
