Biography

Hunting Sola

"It's affecting Ghosts now too. We should bring them back to the City. This makes five."

— Siegfried, noting the increasing levels of corruption amongst the Guardians

Siegfried partnered with Aunor Mahal to hunt down Sola Scath, a rogue Warlock who had ferried another Lightbearer out to one of the Darkness-associated gravitational anomalies moving along the outer regions of the Sol System. As the other Lightbearer had not returned with her, they suspected Sola of having killed them and sought to bring her in for questioning and holding for her crimes. During their confrontation with Sola she managed to shoot Siegfried through the heart, but Aunor managed to defeat her. Ogden revived him and began repairing his armor as Aunor interrogated Sola but was forced to put her down when the Warlock attempted to attack her once more. Aunor wondered if they should have Sola's Ghost revive her for more questioning, but Siegfried wiped the blood off his armor and noted that her initial answers seemed pretty clear. However, Sola's Ghost proved uncooperative as well, forcing Siegfried to send a bolt of Arc energy into it to temporarily disable it. As he picked up their captives to take back to their Jumpship, Siegfried worried that the recent corruption amongst Guardians was spreading now to their Ghosts. He suggested they take them back to The Last City and noted that Sola was the fifth one that had become corrupted recently.

The Wrathborn

This section needs expansion. You can help Destinypedia by expanding it.

Shortly after returning to the Last City from a mission, Siegfried was secretly assigned by Commander Zavala and Ikora Rey to assist Regent-Commander Petra Venj in investigating a strange new Hive corruption in the Dreaming City. Upon arriving in the Awoken city, Siegfried met with Petra and travelled with her in a skimmer towards the site of one of the mysterious Cryptoliths that had emerged. As they travelled, Siegfried noted he had never been in that region of the Dreaming City and was informed that much of the city had still not been seen by the Guardians. They began discussing the mission, with Petra handing him field notes she and her soldiers had taken on the threat they faced and warning him the Hive he would face were vicious. Dryly noting that he typically found that to be the case, Siegfried vowed that he would ensure no harm befell the Corsairs she sent with him and was sure they would have his back as well. He was concerned that the Hive corruption was affecting fauna and sapient beings and that it seemed to be spreading, questioning how the Awoken were combating it. Petra noted the corruption spread from a central artifact and explained they needed to examine it for answers before destroying it. Siegfried was not pleased with that, believing that any Darkness associated items should be destroyed, but acquiesced to her request as she had command of the mission while intending to recommend to the Vanguard eradication or containment for future operations. Petra noted the Vanguard seemed more focused on Europa and the Darkness there according to Eris Morn's reports, but Siegfried sternly declared the Hunter a traitor, causing Petra to snarl and state that Eris's aid suggested otherwise. The Regent-Commander noted that this deployment might be good for him by exposing other points of view, but Siegfried declared that any deployment where his Light might shine upon their enemies was good.

Clash of the Chosen

When Shaw Han sent a request to the Vanguard requesting reinforcements in combating the Cabal who were pressing the Vanguard's lines in the Cosmodrome of Old Russia, Siegfried was dispatched with Lord Saladin Forge and Shipwright Amanda Holliday to assist him. While the Iron Lord joined Shaw on the frontlines, Siegfried remained aboard Holliday's jumpship as it approached the battlefield and waited for the ground forces to clear out several machine gun nests. Once the path was clear, the jumpship flew over the Cabal's fortifications and Siegfried was launched as ordinance from it to strike into the Cabal's frontlines with the Fist of Havoc.

Personality and Traits

As a member of the dogmatic Praxic Order Siegfried held strict standards for Guardians and their interaction or association with anything related to the Darkness. He regarded Eris Morn as a traitor to humanity for her actions, including the embrace of Stasis, a belief that he was not afraid to voice directly to Eris's friend Petra Venj while working with her.

During the Red War Siegfried grew a large beard, which was a rarity amongst Guardians. He liked it and kept it after the war ended. He styled his hair in a thick flaxen braid down the middle with the sides shaved. He wore a pair of polished Dunemarchers as part of his gear set.
