- "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. [1]
Overview
The surviving humans are all that remain of an empire that once spanned the Solar System, having descended from those who endured the apocalyptic Collapse [2] and the Dark Age that followed. [2] In the long centuries since, [3] they have struggled to restore our toppled civilization to its Golden Age splendor—first by the legendary Iron Lords [4], and now by the fearless Guardians who fight to reclaim all that we have lost. [5]
History
Everything changed with the arrival of the Traveler. Long ago, it breathed new life into our system. Rain washed over Mars. Fresh air cleansed the skies over Venus. Soon after, humanity raced into the black, and colonized these newly remade worlds. It was a time of miracles – a great Golden Age.
It did not last. The Traveler had an ancient enemy. A powerful darkness that found us here on Earth, and nearly destroyed us. No one knows exactly what happened in those final moments, but we know this: we survived, and we owe our lives to the Traveler.
In our darkest days, Humans, Exos, and Awoken found the Traveler where it made its last stand, low above Earth, silent and immobile. We built the City – our last – within its protective veil, fighting countless wars to keep its peace. From that dark age,Guardians were born.

Technology
During the Golden Age, humanity's technological achievements had been high. Interplanetary travel was used frequently and new technologies helped build an empire across the entire Solar System.
Approximately seven hundred years[6] after the Traveler's arrival, humanity appears to have reclaimed some, if not the entirety of, their former technological prowess, albeit at a smaller scale.
Weaponry
Note: Given that the majority of weapons in the game are significant, only weapons from the Golden Age have been included to lessen down the list.
