==Overview==
==Overview==
Humans are fairly tough, smart and resilient descendants from those who built a [[Golden Age]]. After an age of retreat and desperate struggle, they fight alongside their [[Guardians]] to take back the solar system and claim a new future. They maintain a no-nonsense approach and a stern outlook with a view to rebuild their civilization as quickly as possible.<ref>[http://gamelynch.com/previews/destiny-preview/ Gamelynch: ''Destiny Preview]''</ref>
The remaining humans are all that survive of a race whose reach once spanned the [[Solar System]], having descended from those who endured the apocalyptic [[Collapse]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/The City#The Dark Age|The Dark Age]]''</ref> Since then,<ref name="A Guardian Rises>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[A Guardian Rises]]''</ref> they have fought to restore our toppled civilization to its [[Golden Age]] splendor—first by the legendary [[Iron Lords]]<ref>'''Bungie (2016/20/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Rise of Iron]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The Plaguelands]] [[Story|Story Mission]]''</ref>, and more recently by the [[Guardians]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Classes#Guardians|Guardians]]''</ref>


==History==
==History==
During the 21st century <ref>[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIxxsw7TNd4&feature=youtu.be '''YouTube''' - ''Destiny: Official E3 Gameplay Experience Trailer'']</ref>, humanity detected a mysterious artifact<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Console, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Races#Ghost Fragment: Human 3|Ghost Fragment: Human 3]]''</ref> performing inscrutable activities on Jupiter, Mercury, and Venus.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Console, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Races#Ghost_Fragment:_Human]]''</ref> As it arrived at Mars, humanity launched the [[Ares One]] mission to make contact. <ref>'''Bungie (2014-9-9)''', ''Destiny, PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian#Ghost_Fragment:_Human_2|Ghost Fragment: Human 2]]''</ref> In the years since, the Traveler, rain washed over Mars and fresh air cleansed the skies over Venus. Soon after, humanity raced into the black, and colonized these newly remade worlds. Beginning a time of miracles known as the [[Golden Age]].
During the 21st Century, humanity made [[Ares One|first contact]] with the mysterious entity that would later come to be known as the [[Traveler]], the arrival of which ushered in a centuries-long Golden Age that saw humans colonize the newly remade worlds of Sol including [[Mercury]], [[Venus]], [[Mars]],<ref name="A Guardian Rises/> and even the moons of [[Jupiter]] and [[Saturn]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/Jupiter#Jupiter|Jupiter]]''</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard''</ref>


But the Golden Age would not last. The Golden Age came to an end with the arrival of the [[Darkness]],<ref name = "Journey">[http://www.gameinformer.com/games/destiny/b/playstation4/archive/2014/04/04/a-player-39-s-journey.aspx?PostPageIndex=3 '''Gameinformer''': ''A Player's Journey'']</ref> which [[Collapse|attacked]] humanity, forcing it to retreat back to planet [[Earth]] where the Traveler sacrificed itself to push back the Darkness. The survivors of the Collapse banded together and built a [[Last City]] beneath where the Traveler's broken shell rested over the planet.
But this Golden Age would not last. Unbeknownst to humanity, the Traveler had an ancient enemy; <ref name="A Guardian Rises"/> a powerful [[Darkness]] that precipitated the Collapse and nearly wiped out mankind, <ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire:Enemies/Darkness#The Darkness|The Darkness]]''</ref> if not for the intervention of the Traveler who sacrificed itself to push back the assailing Darkness. <ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXDmX5rJC8E '''YouTube''' - Prologue]''</ref> And with its dying breath, the Traveler created [[Ghosts]]<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Guardian/Ghost#Ghosts|Ghosts]]''</ref> to seek out those worthy of carrying on its task.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/8/9)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, Item Description, [http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/cry-defiance-3 Cry of Defiance]''</ref>


In the years after the Collapse, came a time of vast suffering and terrible evil, but out of it, the [[Awoken]] emerged, and the [[Exo]] appeared from the ruins with their memories broken. <ref name="DarkAge">'''Bungie (2014//6/12)''', ''Destiny, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Places/The_City#The_Dark_Age|The Dark Age]]''</ref> Many survivors formed colonies in the wilderness in a desperate attempt to survive, but alien hordes or infighting caused them to fall.

"This was our world, our solar system. We were here first. And no matter what the darkness brings, we will be here at the dawn."
— —Grimoire card blurb

Humanity is a sapient species native to the planet Earth.[2]

Overview

The remaining humans are all that survive of a race whose reach once spanned the Solar System, having descended from those who endured the apocalyptic Collapse.[3] Since then,[4] they have fought to restore our toppled civilization to its Golden Age splendor—first by the legendary Iron Lords[5], and more recently by the Guardians.[6]

History

During the 21st Century, humanity made first contact with the mysterious entity that would later come to be known as the Traveler, the arrival of which ushered in a centuries-long Golden Age that saw humans colonize the newly remade worlds of Sol including Mercury, Venus, Mars,[4] and even the moons of Jupiter and Saturn.[7][8]

But this Golden Age would not last. Unbeknownst to humanity, the Traveler had an ancient enemy; [4] a powerful Darkness that precipitated the Collapse and nearly wiped out mankind, [9] if not for the intervention of the Traveler who sacrificed itself to push back the assailing Darkness. [10] And with its dying breath, the Traveler created Ghosts[11] to seek out those worthy of carrying on its task.[12]

In the dark decades after the Collapse, [13] Humans, Exos, and Awoken found the Traveler where it made its last stand and built the City [14] beneath its shadow. [15] Thus, from an age of chaos and death, the City Age began.[16]

Though its tenuous peace [17] lasted for the better part of a hundred years,[18] the City Age would ultimately come to a shattering end in the wake of the devastating Cabal invasion; with the heroic deeds of The Guardian bringing an end to the Red Legion's siege[19] and marking the dawn of a new Golden Age.[20]
