The '''Future War Cult''' ('''FWC''') was one of the factions of the [[Last City]].<ref name= "Destiny Drawing Board">[http://www.bungie.net/7_Destiny-Drawing-Board-Conduit-F3/en/News/News?aid=11179 '''Bungie.net''': ''Destiny Drawing Board - Conduit F3'']</ref> Members of the Cult are known for their military prowess as well as their secrecy. They believe that war with the [[Darkness]] is inevitable, whether they stay on [[Earth]] or [[Dead Orbit|attempt to flee]], and therefore they must be ready to fight. They are also deeply concerned with fate, and whether or not it is possible to alter history altogether. The Cult is led by a group called the Inner Circle.<ref name = "Alpha">'''Bungie (2014/6/12)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Alpha''</ref> Prior to her death, [[Lakshmi-2]] was the Future War Cult representative to the [[Consensus]]. She sold a variety of FWC-branded [[armor]], [[weapon]]s, and [[emblem]]s to [[Guardian]] members of the organization and was the main point of contact during events such as [[Faction Rallies]].  In the final days of the [[Season of the Splicer]], Lakshmi-2 attempted to utilize a [[Vex]] portal to the Last City in order to drive out [[House Light]], unintentionally allowing the Vex to enter and attack.  The Vex invasion force was subsequently defeated by City forces, but Lakshmi was killed by the Vex before they could arrive.


==Known Individuals==
After the death of Lakshmi, The Future War Cult fragmented into two splinter groups, with those who supported her fleeing the Last City with fellow factions [[New Monarchy]] and [[Dead Orbit]], and those who did not share her views defecting to the [[Vanguard]].  The Future War Cult has since become defunct, with its designated area still accessible in the [[Tower]] Hangar, although deserted and unused.

==History==
Archaeological findings indicate that the Future War Cult has existed as early as the late [[Golden Age]].<ref name = "Destiny">'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] - [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies#Future_War_Cult|Future War Cult]]''</ref> The roots of the faction can be traced back to Dr. [[Maya Sundaresh]] and her team in Lhasa, who developed a [[Vex]]-inspired [[The Device|mind-forking device]] used to look into the future.

Use of the Device was abandoned when most users went insane, reporting different timelines where the Darkness was victorious or the City had fallen. Despite this, information gained through use of the Device formed the basis of the FWC's beliefs; a fundamental ideal being the need to prepare for the inevitable wars of the future.<ref name = "Destiny"/>
 
During the [[Dark Age]], the FWC rescued an Exo refugee named Lakshmi-2 and recruited her into their ranks.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]] - [[Lakshmi-2]]: [[Lakshmi-2#Destiny_2|"I understand them better than you might think.

She rose through the ranks of the Future War Cult, eventually becoming one of the leaders of its Inner Circle and being appointed as their representative on the [[Consensus]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] - [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Tower_Allies#Future_War_Cult_Faction_Rep|Future War Cult Faction Rep]]''</ref> Unbeknownst to anyone, Lakshmi was in fact the product of an experiment conducted by Maya Sundaresh on Neptune shortly following the Collapse, in which Maya had imprinted her consciousness onto the Exo.<ref>'''Bungie (2023/5/22)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Deep]] - [[Parting_the_Veil_(Mission)#Transcript|Parting the Veil: Log 9]]''</ref>
 
The Future War Cult was originally an outsider faction, but when the [[Concordat]] faction fell from grace and was banished from [[the City]], the Future War Cult was selected to replace it in the [[Consensus]] and was granted access to the [[Tower]]. The Consensus felt that the Cult's philosophy was more interesting than dangerous, and its focus on combat would both attract former Concordat members and aid in the Guardians' effort to restore the City's territory.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]] - [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places#Ghost Fragment: The City Age|Ghost Fragment: The City]]''</ref>

During the [[Taken War]], the Future War Cult investigated the disappearances of certain Guardians who have apparently been lost to time, which included [[Praedyth]] and [[Ana Bray]]. The exotic quest for the [[Pulse Rifle]] [[No Time To Explain]] included visits to the War Cult's leader, [[Lakshmi-2]], turning in items such as a bracelet that belonged to [[Ana Bray]], as well as a dead [[Ghost]] marked with the FWC insignia and colours, possibly meaning that one of the people lost to the Vex inside the [[Vault of Glass (location)|Vault of Glass]] was once a member of the Cult.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] - [[Quest]]: [[Not Forged In Light]]''</ref>
 
===The Red War===
Sometime before the onset of the [[Red War]], the FWC predicted the [[Cabal]] invasion. However, no one in the [[Consensus]] believed their warnings, some even laughing at them and calling [[Lakshmi-2]] a zealot. Despite this, the FWC was prepared when the [[Red Legion]] arrived and occupied the [[Last City]], fighting back against the Cabal when others fled. The War Cult later used this as a rallying cry to recruit more [[Guardian]]s to their cause during the [[Faction Rallies]].{{Citation needed}} Despite their preparation, half of the Inner Circle disappeared during the invasion, Lakshmi-2 noting that none of their deaths had been predicted and suspected that they were, in fact, still alive somewhere.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/8)''', ''[[Destiny 2]] - [[Lakshmi-2]]: [[Lakshmi-2#Destiny_2|"Half the Inner Circle vanished during the Red War. We did not predict their deaths, so they must still be alive... somewhere."]]''</ref>
 
===Season of the Splicer===
During the [[Endless Night]], FWC leader [[Lakshmi-2]] publicly denounced [[Ikora Rey]] and the [[Vanguard]] for allowing the [[Eliksni]] of [[House of Light|House Light]] to live within the city walls. She claimed she had witnessed the Fallen in a future where the [[Last City]] had been destroyed, and they could not be trusted.<ref>'''Bungie (2021/5/11)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Splicer]] - [[H.E.L.M.#Radio_messages|H.E.L.M.

Grimoire description

The Future War Cult (FWC) was one of the factions of the Last City.[1] Members of the Cult are known for their military prowess as well as their secrecy. They believe that war with the Darkness is inevitable, whether they stay on Earth or attempt to flee, and therefore they must be ready to fight. They are also deeply concerned with fate, and whether or not it is possible to alter history altogether. The Cult is led by a group called the Inner Circle.[2] Prior to her death, Lakshmi-2 was the Future War Cult representative to the Consensus. She sold a variety of FWC-branded armor, weapons, and emblems to Guardian members of the organization and was the main point of contact during events such as Faction Rallies. In the final days of the Season of the Splicer, Lakshmi-2 attempted to utilize a Vex portal to the Last City in order to drive out House Light, unintentionally allowing the Vex to enter and attack. The Vex invasion force was subsequently defeated by City forces, but Lakshmi was killed by the Vex before they could arrive.

After the death of Lakshmi, The Future War Cult fragmented into two splinter groups, with those who supported her fleeing the Last City with fellow factions New Monarchy and Dead Orbit, and those who did not share her views defecting to the Vanguard. The Future War Cult has since become defunct, with its designated area still accessible in the Tower Hangar, although deserted and unused.

History[edit]

Archaeological findings indicate that the Future War Cult has existed as early as the late Golden Age.[3] The roots of the faction can be traced back to Dr. Maya Sundaresh and her team in Lhasa, who developed a Vex-inspired mind-forking device used to look into the future. This device caused its users to become mentally unstable, and they began worshipping it as a god.[4] The modern FWC recovered the design of the Device and rebuilt it within the safety of The Last City. Use of the Device was abandoned when most users went insane, reporting different timelines where the Darkness was victorious or the City had fallen. Despite this, information gained through use of the Device formed the basis of the FWC's beliefs; a fundamental ideal being the need to prepare for the inevitable wars of the future.[3]

During the Dark Age, the FWC rescued an Exo refugee named Lakshmi-2 and recruited her into their ranks.[5] After being saved by the Cult, Lakshmi eventually arrived in The Last City, although few knew her origins and found her sudden appearance abrupt. She rose through the ranks of the Future War Cult, eventually becoming one of the leaders of its Inner Circle and being appointed as their representative on the Consensus.[6] Unbeknownst to anyone, Lakshmi was in fact the product of an experiment conducted by Maya Sundaresh on Neptune shortly following the Collapse, in which Maya had imprinted her consciousness onto the Exo.[7]

The Future War Cult was originally an outsider faction, but when the Concordat faction fell from grace and was banished from the City, the Future War Cult was selected to replace it in the Consensus and was granted access to the Tower. The Consensus felt that the Cult's philosophy was more interesting than dangerous, and its focus on combat would both attract former Concordat members and aid in the Guardians' effort to restore the City's territory.[8]

When the Ahamkara began warping Venus, the Future War Cult sent consultants to aid the Vanguard in investigating discrepancies and disagreements about the timeline of events on the planet.[9]

Future War Cult insignia

During the Taken War, the Future War Cult investigated the disappearances of certain Guardians who have apparently been lost to time, which included Praedyth and Ana Bray. The exotic quest for the Pulse Rifle No Time To Explain included visits to the War Cult's leader, Lakshmi-2, turning in items such as a bracelet that belonged to Ana Bray, as well as a dead Ghost marked with the FWC insignia and colours, possibly meaning that one of the people lost to the Vex inside the Vault of Glass was once a member of the Cult.[10]

The Red War[edit]

Sometime before the onset of the Red War, the FWC predicted the Cabal invasion. However, no one in the Consensus believed their warnings, some even laughing at them and calling Lakshmi-2 a zealot. Despite this, the FWC was prepared when the Red Legion arrived and occupied the Last City, fighting back against the Cabal when others fled. The War Cult later used this as a rallying cry to recruit more Guardians to their cause during the Faction Rallies.[citation needed] Despite their preparation, half of the Inner Circle disappeared during the invasion, Lakshmi-2 noting that none of their deaths had been predicted and suspected that they were, in fact, still alive somewhere.[11]

Season of the Splicer[edit]

During the Endless Night, FWC leader Lakshmi-2 publicly denounced Ikora Rey and the Vanguard for allowing the Eliksni of House Light to live within the city walls. She claimed she had witnessed the Fallen in a future where the Last City had been destroyed, and they could not be trusted.[12] After her concerns were dismissed, Lakshmi planned to stage a coup against the Vanguard alongside the leader of New Monarchy and Dead Orbit.[13] When the Hive god Savathûn, under the guise of Osiris, gifted Lakshmi and the FWC Vex portal technology, they intended on using it to exterminate the Fallen.[14] A portal was then opened in the Eliksni Quarter, allowing the Vex to launch a direct attack on the City. The incursion was soon thwarted by the Vanguard and it was discovered that Lakshmi had died in the attack.[15]

Shortly after, New Monarchy and Dead Orbit fled the City after their coup had failed. What was left of Future War Cult was disbanded, with many members who had disagreed with Lakshmi's views defecting to the Vanguard.[16]
