"Many of the Hidden have claimed that the insurgence in Old Russia has led to newer morphs of the Hive unlike any seen before."

— Unknown Hidden Agent

The Abhorrent Brood is an aspiring Hive Sect, distinguishable by their similar color scheme, armor and weaponry to the original servants of the Witch Queen. Formed after the death of Crota, Oryx and later Navôta, the brood seeks to make their claimant on the Cosmodrome and to potentially find new Gods for them to worship, other than the likes of Savathûn and even Xivu Arath.

History

Cult of the Damned

Shortly after the events of the Red War, a group of Cult Wizards stumbled upon the broken broods of the Hive within the Cosmodrome, more specifically those who crept within the Grottos. While they weren't official leaders, they began to plan and float the idea of creating a new army to conquer Earth and claim it for themselves rather than the gods that the Hive once worshipped. This idea would be the foundation in which the Abhorrent Brood would grow and swell in numbers while the Cosmodrome would still be within its quarantined state

Blackborne Slaughter

Sometime following the events of Forsaken, the Abhorrent Brood came across a forgotten sector of the Cosmodrome which had been infested by dozens of Seeder Ships. While investigating one of these said ships they had unexpectedly awoken the twin Blackborne Knights, Yunaith and Ketrox. While the brood chose to praise and worship them, they however had different plans and had slaughtered all those that stood before them, referring to the event as the Blackborne Slaughter.

Rise or Navôta

During the events of the war against the House of Salvation, Navôta, a Spawn of Eir, revealed herself to the malcontent Hive of the Cosmodrome, seeking to claim leadership over them. Her actions against the new light Guardians however gave her unneeded attention in which she would slowly begin to lose the favor of the Hive. The Cult Wizards of the Abhorrent Brood temporarily allied themselves with Navôta's rival, Ak-Baral in order to turn the Cosmodrome Hive against her.

Navota, the Spawn of Eir

Following Navôta's subsequent death, the Abhorrent Brood severed their ties with Ak-Baral, who would also die to the hands of the Guardians. There they would claim the lair of Navôta's rival in order to construct a massive cave system under the Cosmodrome in order to spread their influence. The Labyrinth itself would also give the Abhorrent Brood access to the Warmind Bunker of the Cosmodrome and plunder it of its secrets.

Solis Incident

Seeking out tithes to grow their power, the Cult Wizards would set a trap for unsuspecting Guardians to delve into their lair in the Grottos and claim their Light. They set the trap by summoning the Blackborne Twins in the Refinery which had brought the attention of the Vanguard who sent a Fireteam of six, codenamed Fireteam Solis, to investigate the disturbance.

Falling for the trap, the Fireteam would get to the Refinery, fighting against the near endless swarm of the Hive that emerged from the Grottos. The Blackborne Twins would retreat into the Grottos, tricking the Guardians to follow directly into their trap. Now locked behind a manifested barrier, the Cult Wizards used the deaths of the Hive to summon Alarvak, Hammer of the Abhorrent, a massive Ogre that would tear through he Guardians and their Light. The death of the Fireteam would force the Vanguard to set up a restriction to the Grottos, quarantining it from any further expeditions in the potential future.
