Shade also known as Echo, is a paracausal imitation or apparitions created by using Darkness.

Application

Hive

In Broodhold Strike, In Anânh will reach out to Ur, the Ever-Hunger and create a Shade of herself with Void-based abilities.

Taken

By using the power of the Darkness, Oryx, the Taken King is able to create a Taken projection of himself in the form of the Echo of Oryx. These Echoes allow him to enact his will remotely where he can summon and command Taken troops. Oryx's power in an area fades once an Echo is vanquished and any Taken he summoned are recalled.

Other Taken can also create artificial projections in the form of shadows, which are shadowy imitations of lesser enemies such as Shadow Thralls and Shadowbeasts.

Counterfeit Taken

Some of the Counterfeit Taken in Prophecy appear in the form of Echoes, like the Knight Echoes, Centurion Echoes, Phalanx Echo and the Kell Echo.

 =====Counterfeit Taken=====
-Counterfeit Taken are the Taken enemies that appear in [[The Reckoning]], [[Gambit Prime]], and the [[Prophecy]] [[Dungeon]] are not actual Taken. Instead of being living creatures corrupted by [[Darkness]], they are artificial constructs of dark matter, created from the [[Unknown Space|Nine Realms]] and its engine of pue potential, as the [[Nine]] themselves are sentient beings of dark matter. Vanguard intelligence notes that these counterfeit Taken have low counts of sterile neutrinos, typically associated with Taken, but instead have high ambient cold dark matter. This is the reason many Taken forces encountered in Nine space are all-powerful echoes in imitation of [[Likeness of Oryx|Oryx]] and his [[Likeness of Nokris|son]], in addition to a [[Cabal]] [[Phalanx Echo|Phalanx]] and a [[Fallen]] [[Kell Echo|Kell]].
+Some of the Counterfeit Taken in [[Prophecy]] appear in the form of Echoes, like the [[Knight Echo]]es, [[Centurion Echo]]es, [[Phalanx Echo]] and the [[Kell Echo]].
-In addition, the Drifter learned to create his own counterfeit "Primeval-like" Taken from the Nine's use of pure potential; utilizing the dark matter of the Haul and through sheer force of will. One example of this is the  [[Likeness of Oryx]] as it was the scariest Hive he could think of.<ref> '''Bungie (2019/3/5)''', ''[[Destiny 2]], Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Stolen Intelligence#Potential|Stolen Intelligence; Potential]]''</ref>
