This is a post I've wanted to make since the original Dark Guardians group. Since I first started playing I was interested in a name I occasionally saw. Toland, the Shattered. He now acts as my character’s hero of sorts. He is a Dark Guardian within the lore of Destiny! In summary. He was a warlock who studied the Darkness. Eventually, he was thought to have gone insane. The city exiled him, thinking him to be raving and corrupted by the Darkness. In his exile we studied the Hive very closely and was fascinated by them. He created the weapon that is called “Bad Juju.” The weapon hungers for both Light and Darkness; so Toland used his knowledge of the Darkness or the Hive to create this devious weapon. Due to his expertise on the Hive and their magic he was contacted by Eriana-3 and asked to join a group of six guardians on a quest to kill Crota. This, was the end of Toland. As far as we know… He’s the epitome of what we are, and what we represent. The bravery to delve where other guardians dare not stride, and the tenacity to push against the oncoming wave of adversity. Be it from our foes, or supposed allies. Bring the legend of Toland with you into combat, remember that there are others like us.
