— Noru'usk

Noru'usk, Servant of Oryx is a Taken Centurion that was captured and imprisoned within the Prison of Elders.

Gameplay

Noru'usk is essentially a giant Taken Centurion. He is armed with a Projection Rifle, and can cover great distances with his jump jets. Whenever a Guardian gets too close, he will stomp the ground to create a "quake" that will either deal damage to or instantly kill them depending on how close they are. For longer-ranged attacks, he will fire an Axion Dart that will home in on its target. Whenever his Taken reinforcements are killed, he can always summon more in the arena.
