Saphix was a former Guardian and the first to retain his consciousness after being infected with radiolaria. He is also one of many Guardians that were able to control the powers of the Darkness. He is currently leading the Oxian Almighty.
History
Resurrection
- "Imagine sleeping for a little while, and then that slumber is interrupted. Not only are you awake, you are impaled and you don’t know why you exist."
- — Saphix recalling his resurrection
During a Ghost’s journey to resurrect a Guardian, it stumbled upon a corpse impaled by a pole. It was able to revive the corpse, but it was frightened to be resurrected and more frightened to be impaled. Ignoring the Ghost’s attempts to calm him down, the newborn Guardian ripped himself in half, killing him.
After that dilemma, the Guardian immediately walked toward a nearby puddle, and touched it. It created a negative reaction, as the liquid started to consume the Guardian, but slowly enough so that the Ghost doesn’t pay attention. The Guardian began to ask questions to the Ghost, some of which involved the giant orb in the sky. The Ghost replied by calling it the Traveller, and was the cause of his resurrection. The Guardian, now more confused, sought to get under the orb to gain its attention and ask questions.
During that journey, the Guardian would ask many questions to the Ghost, and would sometimes have to be told to be quiet by the Ghost. Unfortunately, the Guardian was starting to ask many questions that were about the Traveller and it’s opposite. The Ghost had to scan him for any mental problems, but instead was met with a lot of radiolaria inside his body. The Ghost was able to get rid of the radiolaria, but the Guardian wasn’t happy, as he wanted more “juice”. Strangely, the Guardian still asked questions, only at a smaller rate.
The Traveller and Ideals
When the lonesome Guardian and his Ghost arrived under the Traveller, they were able to see a small settlement that took place there. He was invited by the Speaker, and asked if he could talk to the Traveller. While disappointed when told he couldn’t, he was intrigued when the Speaker said that he spoke for the Traveller. The Guardian than asked why the Traveller didn’t desire to talk. The Speaker said that it was attacked by the Darkness, and in its dying breath drove away the Darkness and created the ghosts. Although satisfied, the Guardian asked again why he was chosen to be resurrected. The Speaker said he did not know, but he assured him that the Traveller knew what it was doing.
Later, the Guardian was packing his supplies for a mission. When his Ghost asked what was the mission, the Guardian said that it was a journey to find the Darkness. The Ghost went livid, telling the Guardian that he was resurrected to destroy the Darkness. The Guardian shot back, telling the Ghost that he didn’t know anything that was happening and desired to find the Darkness to find answers. Against his Ghost objections, the Guardian was still determined to find the Darkness, but not before calling himself a new name. That new name would be Saphix.
The Darkness and Salvation
- "Saphix was focused on finding the Darkness, to show him the answers, but found an untouched power long ago"
- — Eris Morn recalling the tales of Saphix
As Saphix moved on to find the Darkness, he realized that the Darkness wouldn’t be on Earth, and asked his Ghost to show him where a Jumpship was. His Ghost refused to, but was afraid when Saphix grabbed a knife and aimed it at the Ghost, not hesitating to kill it. Saphix was able to find a jumpship and leave, but his Ghost would not talk to him for a while.
