The '''Black Armory''' is a secret weapon foundry founded during the late [[Golden Age]]. Its sole surviving member, [[Ada-1]], secretly maintains the main vault within the walls of the [[Last City]]. It was founded by three families - the [[House of Meyrin]], the [[Rasmussen Clan]], and the [[Satou Tribe]]; each bringing elements of their native heritage to the Armory's designs. The heads of each respective families at the time were [[Yuki Satou]], [[Helga Rasmussen]], and [[Henriette Meyrin]], the mother of Ada-1.
The '''Black Armory''' is a clandestine weapons foundry founded during the late [[Golden Age]]. Its sole surviving member, [[Ada-1]], operated in secrecy within the walls of the [[Last City]], before eventually revealing herself to the [[Guardians]] to seek their aid in reclaiming the Armory's lost forges and protecting her wares from the Fallen anarchist faction known as the [[Kell's Scourge]].


The weapons designed and created are of the highest quality and are therefore highly sought after by the [[Kell's Scourge]]. It is for this reason that the Black Armory maintains the deepest of secrecy and only those who bear a pass may do business with the foundry.
==History==
===Golden Age and Collapse===
[[File:BlackArmoryClans.jpg|thumb|300px|The family crests of Rasmussen Clan, Satou Tribe and House of Meyrin]]
The Black Armory was founded at the end of the Golden Age by three families: the French [[House of Meyrin]], the Norse Rasmussen Clan, and the Japanese Satou Tribe. Each family brought elements of their native heritage to the Armory's designs. The families' matriarchs, [[Henriette Meyrin]], [[Helga Rasmussen]] and [[Yuki Satou]], came to believe that the Earth was under imminent threat from an extraterrestrial enemy and agreed to manufacture and stockpile advanced firearms to ensure the survival of their families.<ref name="BAP 25">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Forge]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers#Entry 25|Entry 25]]''</ref> They built several Forges and sold some of their weapons to compensate for their expenses; Helga Rasmussen, previously of [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray]], ran the business side of things.<ref name="BAP 41">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Forge]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers#Entry 41|Entry 41]]''</ref>


==Overview==
The Armory's precautions failed when the actual [[Collapse]] arrived; their superior firearms provided little protection against the [[Black Fleet]]'s onslaught. After an attack by monstrous minions of the Darkness, the group had to abandon their hideout and leave their Forges behind. Henriette's daughter Adelaide was severely injured in the attack, and Henriette reluctantly agreed to Yuki Satou's proposal to upload Adelaide's consciousness into an experimental [[Exo]] frame, thus creating Ada-1.<ref name="BAP 92">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Forge]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers#Entry 92, 93, 94, 95|Entry 92, 93, 94, 95]]''</ref>
The Black Armory has forges located across the system, where they create their legendary weaponry.
*[[Volundr Forge]] is located in the [[EDZ]] on [[Earth]], and is currently held by remnants of the [[Red Legion]].
*[[Izanami Forge|Izanami]] and [[Gofannon Forge]] were aboard the [[Exodus Black]] during its voyage, and are thus now located on [[Nessus]]. The former has been secured by the [[Vex]], whilst the latter has been tampered with by the [[Kell's Scourge]].
*[[Bergusia Forge]] was located deep in the restricted Niobe Labs within the [[European Dead Zone]], but is currently accessible after claiming the forge from the Kell's Scourge.


In addition, the Black Armory possesses a large Vault containing a large number of their weapons and have taken great care to ensure it stays a secret from those who would misuse their weapons. However, when weapons and technology belonging to the Black Armory were stolen by the [[Kell's Scourge]], Ada-1 reluctantly forms a partnership with the Guardians to ensure the safety of her foundry's forges and prevent the Fallen from finding the Vault. Ironically, the Vault is located in the Last City and it is where the Guardians face off against [[Siviks, Lost to None]]’s crew and [[Insurrection Prime, Kell's Scourge]], to prevent them from breaching the Vault.
Ada-1 served as a mobile forge, being able to create and upgrade Black Armory weapons with her bare hands. Unfortunately, the unique weapons produced by Ada-1 turned out to be the group's bane in the [[Dark Age]], as they attracted multiple bandits and robbers, including some [[Risen]] proto-[[Warlord]]s. Eventually, every other member of the group perished with only Ada-1 remaining.<ref name="BAP final">'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Forge]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers|The Black Armory Papers]], [[Lore:The Black Armory Papers#Final Entry|Final Entry]]''</ref> She ended up hiding in the Last City remaining secretive and distrustful of any [[Lightbearer]]s, even the [[Guardian]]s.


After succeeding in bringing down Insurrection Prime, the Guardians managed to confront Siviks at the Niobe Labs, protecting it's technology and secrets from Siviks's thievery. After a struggle, the Guardians finally killed the Kell's Scourge's leader and retrieve the requirements to finish the [[Izanagi's Burden]] Sniper Rifle. Grateful in their efforts on the Black Armory's behalf and breaking the Kell's Scourge, Ada-1 grants the weapon to the Guardian.
Three of the Armory's forges were lost during the Collapse, while a fourth, the [[Volundr Forge]], remained in operation within the [[European Dead Zone]].


==Trivia==
===Season of the Forge===
*If a player follows a path through the Tower carefully, they can view the hidden location of the Black Armory and hear Ada-1.
{{References}}
Following the end of the Red War, the [[Fallen]] anarchist faction known as the [[Kell's Scourge]] sought out the Black Armory's technology for themselves. This led Ada-1 to reveal herself to the Guardians and request their aid in reclaiming the Black Armory's lost Forges and repelling the Scourge.
 
Throughout the conflict, Guardians managed to recover all four forges, stopping Kell's Scourge from stealing wares at Vault Ebisu in the Last City, then put an end to [[Siviks, Lost to None]], leader of the faction. In addition, they managed to recover the torn pages of the Black Armory Pages, allowing Ada-1 to learn more about herself and the history behind the Black Armory. Eventually, they managed to recover the Obsidian Accelerator, which allowed the Exo to enhance Black Armory Weapons through Obsidian Radiance.
 
===Season of the Splicer===
{{References}}
Not long after the Vanguard ordered the evacuations due to the [[Arrival of the Black Fleet]], the Black Armory fell in hard times. During an inspection of [[Niobe Labs]], Ada-1 found Bergusia Forge missing. Without any leads to the current whereabouts of the other Forges, the exo was forced to cut her losses.
 
Ada would have trouble trying to find a new path for a while, as she felt that her purpose lay with the Black Armory's forges. It was through the encouraging words of [[Suraya Hawthorne]] and [[Eido]] from [[House of Light]], as well as a solid lead from [[Rahool]] that she'd found a new path for herself and the Black Armory.
 
Thus, Ada began her endeavor to create the Loom. And with the help of the Guardian recovering centuries-old matter programming from [[Bray Exoscience]] on [[Europa]], the Loom would become a success. Ada-1 would serve as an armorer, allowing Guardians to use the Loom so they could adorn their armor with different looks.
 
Despite the initial trouble at first and some of her own doubts, Ada-1 found satisfaction in forging a new path for herself and trying to continue the Armory's legacy.

The Black Armory is a clandestine weapons foundry founded during the late Golden Age. Its sole surviving member, Ada-1, operated in secrecy within the walls of the Last City, before eventually revealing herself to the Guardians to seek their aid in reclaiming the Armory's lost forges and protecting her wares from the Fallen anarchist faction known as the Kell's Scourge.

History[edit]

Golden Age and Collapse[edit]

The family crests of Rasmussen Clan, Satou Tribe and House of Meyrin

The Black Armory was founded at the end of the Golden Age by three families: the French House of Meyrin, the Norse Rasmussen Clan, and the Japanese Satou Tribe. Each family brought elements of their native heritage to the Armory's designs. The families' matriarchs, Henriette Meyrin, Helga Rasmussen and Yuki Satou, came to believe that the Earth was under imminent threat from an extraterrestrial enemy and agreed to manufacture and stockpile advanced firearms to ensure the survival of their families.[1] They built several Forges and sold some of their weapons to compensate for their expenses; Helga Rasmussen, previously of Clovis Bray, ran the business side of things.[2]

The Armory's precautions failed when the actual Collapse arrived; their superior firearms provided little protection against the Black Fleet's onslaught. After an attack by monstrous minions of the Darkness, the group had to abandon their hideout and leave their Forges behind. Henriette's daughter Adelaide was severely injured in the attack, and Henriette reluctantly agreed to Yuki Satou's proposal to upload Adelaide's consciousness into an experimental Exo frame, thus creating Ada-1.[3]

Ada-1 served as a mobile forge, being able to create and upgrade Black Armory weapons with her bare hands. Unfortunately, the unique weapons produced by Ada-1 turned out to be the group's bane in the Dark Age, as they attracted multiple bandits and robbers, including some Risen proto-Warlords. Eventually, every other member of the group perished with only Ada-1 remaining.[4] She ended up hiding in the Last City remaining secretive and distrustful of any Lightbearers, even the Guardians.

Three of the Armory's forges were lost during the Collapse, while a fourth, the Volundr Forge, remained in operation within the European Dead Zone.

Throughout the conflict, Guardians managed to recover all four forges, stopping Kell's Scourge from stealing wares at Vault Ebisu in the Last City, then put an end to Siviks, Lost to None, leader of the faction. In addition, they managed to recover the torn pages of the Black Armory Pages, allowing Ada-1 to learn more about herself and the history behind the Black Armory.

Not long after the Vanguard ordered the evacuations due to the Arrival of the Black Fleet, the Black Armory fell in hard times. During an inspection of Niobe Labs, Ada-1 found Bergusia Forge missing. Without any leads to the current whereabouts of the other Forges, the exo was forced to cut her losses.

Ada would have trouble trying to find a new path for a while, as she felt that her purpose lay with the Black Armory's forges. It was through the encouraging words of Suraya Hawthorne and Eido from House of Light, as well as a solid lead from Rahool that she'd found a new path for herself and the Black Armory.

Vault Ebisu[edit]

Vault Ebuisu, a Black Armory Vault

In addition, the Black Armory possessed a large Vault which contained a large number of their weapons. To prevent their weapons from being misused, they went to great lengths to ensure their secrecy. However, when weapons and technology belonging to the Black Armory were reported stolen by the Kell's Scourge, Ada-1 reluctantly forms a partnership with the Guardians to ensure the safety of her foundry's forges and prevent the Fallen from finding the Vault. Ironically, the Vault is located in the Last City and it is where the Guardians face off against the Kell's Scourge and Insurrection Prime to prevent them from breaching the Vault.

After succeeding in bringing down Insurrection Prime, the Guardians managed to confront Siviks at the Niobe Labs, protecting its technology and secrets from Siviks's thievery. After a struggle, the Guardians finally killed the Kell's Scourge's leader and retrieved the requirements to finish the Izanagi's Burden Sniper Rifle. Grateful in their efforts on the Black Armory's behalf and breaking the Kell's Scourge, Ada-1 grants the weapon to the Guardian.

Project Niobe[edit]

Ada-1 with the Obsidian Drive

Project Niobe was a secret Black Armory experiment to aid Humanity by combining the Armory's weapon-enhancing phase technology with an artificial frame and digitized consciousness of the Exo developed from the Clovis Bray corporation. This in other words would have given an Exo the ability to become a mobilized forge.[5][6]

During the Collapse, to save her fatally injured daughter, Henriette Meyrin uploaded her daughter's consciousness into an experimental Exo frame to become Ada-1.[4] At some point, Siviks would scour through the Black Armory Papers to seek for secrets of Project Niobe, an initiative to develop and produce enhanced Black Armory prototypes.[7] Later Ada-1 expressed her gratitude towards the Guardian for recovering the Obsidian Accelerator, a missing Exo upgrade which enabled her weapon-upgrading abilities using Obsidian Radiance.[8]
