| == Death of Oryx and Extinction of the Hive and Taken == | | ==Do Hive Have Genes?== |
| | | There's a lot of questions about the [[Hive]] and their elder gods but one question has bothered me a lot is that. Why doesn't Oryx's kin have wings or his horns except for "Nokris"? And about Crota. If my theory is wrong, (read here, [[Crota, Son of Oryx]]) then why does he look nothing like other Hive? ---[[User:Virgil the Ghost|Virgil the Ghost]] |
| So Oryx, the Taken King is now dead, does this mean without him the [[Hive]] and [[Taken]] are finally extinct? [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 18:55, 10 October 2015 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| :Unfortunately for the Guardians, no. The Taken can hang around indefinitely until someone kills them all, so any Taken that Oryx made before he died are still an active threat. The Hive aren't created by Oryx like the Taken, they're living organisms that can grow and reproduce on their own, so while Oryx's death deprives them of leadership and direction, they are far from in danger of going extinct. Even if we kill all the Hive in the Solar System, Oryx's sisters and their armies are still out in the universe and might show up on our doorstep one day. [[User:MorningWalker|MorningWalker]] ([[User talk:MorningWalker|talk]]) 21:58, 10 October 2015 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| :Don't forget the five [[Worm]] gods, [[Akka]], [[Eir]], [[Ur]], [[Xol]], and [[Yul]] they're the creators of the Hive and could show up too one day! [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 23:07, 10 October 2015 (EDT)
| |
| | |
| :Nope. Just because the God-king of the Hive is killed doesn't mean that the Hive and Taken are done for. With the April Update landing today, a new Taken Knight named Malok rises to power and occupies Oryx's vacant throne. If you kill Malok, then the Taken should probably die down, but the Hive still remain a threat.

| == The Destruction of the Solar System Hive ==
| |
| | |
| So with [[Oryx, the Taken King]] assassinated, does this mean all of the Solar System's Hive will all be consumed by the [[Worms]] and be destroyed?
| |
| [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 19:03, 08 December 2015 (EDT)

| :Why would their Worms consume them? Have they failed in their tithes of death? -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] ([[User talk:SFH|talk]]) 15:58, 9 December 2015 (EST)
| |
| | |
| :Considering that all of the Hive in the Solar System must bring all their tithes to Oryx, and eventually he brings them to all the Worms. So yes, without him, all of Oryx's spawn would be doomed because they don't have enough tithes of death with Oryx not around which means all of the Worm Gods would consume them from within except of course for Savathun and Xivu Arath's Hive spawn still outside of the Solar System. -- [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 16:07, 08 December 2015 (EDT)
| |
| :Oryx never directed any of the death he received to the Worm Gods. The tithes were for Oryx, Savathun, and Xivu Arath's Worms, not the Worm Gods themselves. The individual Hive just need to feed their worms enough to not be consumed. Oryx's death in no way impacts this. -- [[User:SFH|SFH]] ([[User talk:SFH|talk]]) 16:53, 9 December 2015 (EST)
| |
| :Oh now I see! Most of the Hive species feed their internal worms, but not the Worm Gods themselves, thank you for clarifying I got confused! -- [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 17:53, 08 December 2015 (EDT)

|
| :Actually MoriningWalker, it depends when you encounter him. Up until [[Regicide]], Yes, Oryx was Hive/Krill. But once you beat him he infects himself with pure Taken energy so during [[King's Fall]] he's kinda half and half as seen during the part when you have the Brand of Immortality his face opens up into a singular eye that looks like a Taken eye and shoots bullets similar to giant [[Taken Acolyte|Acolyte's Eye]] blast and the Taken residue in his chest you see during damage phase. Plus in some concept art yes, Oryx was going to be taken in King's Fall. I would but a link here but I don't know how to do that so you're gonna have to take my word on it. (PS. Oryx wasn't going to look Taken, his red parts would've been purple and his brown parts would've been white and his eyes where gonna be white and he still and three of them but he was still part Taken.)

| == Crota overthrowing his father Oryx ==
| | See this video https://youtu.be/VBlHqIuPz0s [[User:Nitin Das|Nitin Das]] ([[User talk:Nitin Das|talk]]) 05:13, October 19, 2019 (EDT) [[User:Nitin Das|Nitin Das]] ([[User talk:Nitin Das|talk]]) 05:13, October 19, 2019 (EDT) |
| I wonder if Crota attempted to overthrow his father for his exile by angrily cutting Oryx's tribute system, destroying the Shrine of Oryx, and Crota forming a rebellion against his father by declaring to the Hive he be the new Hive king, what would Oryx do then? -- [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 13:37, 25 October 2016 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
|
| :It is written in the Books of Sorrow that "Crota battled through history, becoming a legendary demon. In his early centuries he often spared a few victims to hear oaths and protests against his father. Later, he came to understand Oryx, and he made temples and monuments wherever he went." [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XL:_An_Emperor_For_All_Outcomes|An Emperor For All Outcomes]]. So, no, he did not rebel.

| | == Is taox the mother of osmium king? == |
|
| |
|
| :But I'm thinking in an alternate reality of what if Crota did rebel against his father? -- [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 13:37, 25 October 2016 (EDT)
| | in taox's biography says "osmium mother" rank and is mentioned in some pages as grandmother of oryx. [[User:D25910|D25910]] ([[User talk:D25910|talk]]) 02:25, October 13, 2019 (EDT) |
|
| |
|
| :If that is the case, as Crota is weaker than his father by orders of magnitude he would be swiftly defeated, unless his siblings the Deathsingers and perhaps Nokris (whomever they are, be they mother, sister, or brother) join forces, then Oryx will have a problem. But then it wouldn't be rebellion as we would know it, for the Hive often kill one another "for this war is love". Oryx would view it as the greatest example of love his children could show him. This doesn't explain why Alak-Hul was imprisoned, however. Maybe it is different somewhat, in Alak-Hul's place. [[User:Dante the Ghost|Dante the Ghost]] ([[User talk:Dante the Ghost|talk]]) 13:50, 25 October 2016 (EDT)
| | Would you consider using proper English and punctuation? Anyway, we don’t know of Taox is the mother of the Osmium King, or the grand-mother of Oryx. It might be implied, but, we ultimately don’t know for certain.

| | Yeah. Tell me. And then add it if yes |

|
| I could imagine the Worm Gods like Eir view Oryx as a weakling and proclaming Crota as a new Hive king which would absolutely disappoint Oryx. -- [[User:Titan66|Titan66]] ([[User talk:Titan66|talk]]) 13:53, 25 October 2016 (EDT)
| | Due to his closeness to the Deep, possibly, but there is more evidence to suggest that Savathûn was to be a Disciple before she turned against the Witness in Season of Arrival. Plus, he clearly lacked he powers that Disciples have, not even the D2 Oryx who came after Rhulk had any XD — [[User:TheTrueSorrowMaker|TheTrueSorrowMaker]] |
| | |
| :And why would the Worm Gods do that? Oryx is the most powerful of their servants, surpassing his sisters and all of his spawn. Through the killing-logic he feeds them their tithe of Light and has fulfilled his nature as the ultimate explorer-warrior king. He has even killed one of the Gods by taking what he needed instead of asking for it. That, in the eyes of the Worm Gods, is the ultimate arbiter of the Worm Gods' favor. So unless Crota and/or his siblings decided to abandon their father and "grow apart" from him like his sisters did, and they stumbled upon the Traveler in its weakened state, and killed it; then decided ''not'' to tithe all of that Light to Oryx, but instead keep it, then the Worm Gods would be interested. For remember, the Gods had tasked Oryx and his sisters to kill everything of the Sky, including the Traveler. If Crota and/or his siblings did that, then they'd be considered.
| |
| | |
| :But remember, Oryx's sisters are still out there, and with Oryx's ultimate death, they'd be the next in line as the most powerful, perhaps Xivu Arath because she's the Hive God of War. So even if in this alternate reality Crota and/or his siblings decided to rebel, they would have to have a very good reason and motivation in order to get the Worm Gods' attention, perhaps by showing enough the sword-logic to go into the Deep, where before only Oryx had trod, and met with the Worm Gods themselves.

| :If you mean the [[Grimoire/Activities/Raids|Kings Fall]] Grimoire card, then I think not.

| :::::Calm down. There is no need to get excited. The reason the image is of the raid is because it serves the purpose I mentioned above and showcases the character to those who want to see who Crota is. If you want to see who Master Chief is, you want to see a full physical profile, not a battle scene with him in it. The point is that a profile picture showcases the character to those who want a clear image in their minds of who he is. The Regicide picture can be confusing to people who are new to destiny. if you want, you can put the Regicide image in the gallery with a caption stating it is his true form.[[File:Destiny-vex.jpg|20px|stick|link=]][[User:Arcmind|<span style="color: #b30000;" title="Arcmind is an administrator.">'''Arcmind'''</span>]] <sup>'''[[User talk:Arcmind|<span style="color:#EAC117">Talk</span>]] • [[Special:Contributions/Arcmind|<span style="color:#EAC117">Contribs</span>]]'''</sup> 18:53, 10 December 2016 (EST)

| I personally like using the Grimoire images for character profiles unless they're a named NPC with no Grimoire card attached. The Oryx Rebuked or Oryx Defeated cards work just fine as an image, though the Oryx Rebuked is the best of the two for a character profile image. The render, while fine, just doesn't cut it and can be moved to the Gallery instead. Also, Oryx's Raid form only appears once and that is in the Raid while his smaller form is more common as it appears not only in [[Regicide]] but also the various cutscenes of TTK. --{{User:Dante the Ghost/Sig}} 22:18, 10 December 2016 (EST)
| |
| | |
| :Very well. I like that one better than the Oryx Defeated card.
| |
| | |
| I'm gonna say this for the last time, while I do agree that the Oryx Rebuked card fits him well, the only problem is that it's not his true form. Much like Crota or any raid boss that would suit the character, the Oryx Defeated or King's Fall Oryx would actually depict him better due to the fact that's his true form. But if you want me to leave the King's Fall Oryx in the gallery, that's fine by me. I'm just suggesting my solution would be better.

| :I understand where you are coming from, I really do. Its just that although the image is not a problem for Destiny fans such as you and I, newcomers looking to see who the three eyed, two horned, God-King Oryx is, the image on our profile page is going to be the one that sticks with them whenever they picture him and in the end, a silhouette is not going to help them any in connecting with the guy in all of the marketing material. Especially if they are not familiar with the lore or have not played the raid. Further, his Kingsfall form is essentially the same as the card we have up now, just different sizes. With that being said, you are more than welcome to put it in his biography under a section about his Ascendant Form or in the gallery. But ultimately our goal must be to have a broad accessibility for as many people as possible, and regardless of our personal preferences, that must come first.

- Has it been confirmed that that's his official title? OmgHAX! (talk) 09:06, 19 July 2015 (EDT)
- Mostly, I'm going by Bungie.net Destinythegame.com, and the descriptions in the trailers which always describe him as "Oryx, the Taken King". Does that qualify? -- SFH (talk) 15:07, 7 August 2015 (EDT)
- Better to wait. Bungie might do something unexpected and make his full name "Oryx, King of the Taken". We'll know for sure as soon as someone beats the new raid and posts video on YouTube. MorningWalker (talk) 15:21, 7 August 2015 (EDT)

- They're both abilities Oryx uses in King's Fall. "Doxology" is a team-wipe attack triggered by not stunning Oryx by detontating the spheres dropped by Light-Eater Ogres (if I remember correctly), while "Banish to Darkness Dimension" pulls a player into an isolated area where an enemy called Shade of Oryx must be killed in order to escape.
