Gods like Oryx and Crota are capable of being killed in physical reality without truly dying; even under certain circumstances, Ascendant Hive gods can be reborn even if killed in the Ascendant Plane. So long as their souls are preserved, they can reemerge in corporeal form at a later time. If they are killed in their respective throne world, however, their death will be permanent.[1] According to the Spider, two other methods of permanently killing Hive gods exist.
In descending order of importance, the current hierarchy of the Hive’s religious figures are as follows:
The Witness,[2][3] the entity controlling the Worm Gods through its Disciple, Rhulk.
- Worm Gods
- Xita, the Nurturing Worm, Mother of the Worm Gods whose larvae gave the Hive their immortality in exchange for a tithe of Light
- Hive Gods
- Oryx, the Taken King, God-King of the Hive
- Crota, Son of Oryx, crown prince to the Osmium Throne; son of Oryx
- Dûl Incaru, the Eternal Return, Ascendant Witch to the High Coven; daughter of Savathûn
- Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn, former High Priest of Xol; estranged son of Oryx
