'''Wilhelm-7''' was an [[Exo]] [[Guardian]] and [[Titan]], who journeyed with his [[Fireteam]] ([[Agadir]] and [[Pershing]]) into the loot cave in the [[Cosmodrome]] and discovered a hoard of [[Engram|Engrams]] and [[Glimmer]]. However, the greed and loot consumed him and his team, causing them to turn against and kill each other. He left a trail of recorded messages in bottles along their path, recounting the events as they transpired.

Wilhelm-7 was always greedy from day one. He was the team leader who brought his fireteam into the mysterious cave in search for a [[Vandal]] that'd take them to a loot-filled cave and refused to listen to his team wanting to leave after four straight days of spelunking. Though he clearly still cared about his team as he didn't want to make them worry by telling them they were lost. However, his avarice would quickly balloon into madness as he ventured further into the cave. This madness would soon turn into tyranny as after Pershing's death he'd murder Agadir's ghost and turn him into a pack mule. This murder streak would continue as he'd then kill Agadir and even his own ghost Bismark, both in fits of paranoia. He'd feel nothing for any of his team's deaths or even his own injuries aside from how they affected his performance.
 
Once he was by himself Wilhelm-7 would descend into mad ramblings, seeing his friends despite them being long dead, and frantically raving about all the loot he could find as if it was the only thing he could perceive. On the day Captain Avarokk's crew too had discovered the loot cave, he had gone so manic that he sealed himself inside a pod to ensure nothing could get him. But this did not work as he'd die and the [[Icon of Excess]] crystals would consume his body, rooting him to the spot.

*Wilhelm-7 is considered a reference to One-Eyed Willy. It makes sense due to the fact that Wilhelm has only 1 eye, similar to Willy. In addition, they both leave booby traps to protect their treasure, with has tainted them both with greed.

*There is a theory that Avarokk's crew did not murder Wilhelm-7. Rather in the final moments of his last recording as he yelled out greedily at the intruders, his avarice fed the Icon of Excess' and they bloomed from his body, killing him.
**This is supported as the pod he died in didn't seem forced open at any point and only opens for the fireteam after Avarokk dies and the dungeon completes.
