"I am Yul, the Honest Worm. [...] Behold Eir, and Xol, and Ur and Akka. The Virtuous Worms. Look upon us, and know that We are go[o]d."

— Yul, the Honest Worm

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. 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, 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

Savathûn, the Witch-Queen

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

Xivu Arath, God of War
