Let's get creative and post your own Ghost Fragments about your character below!
Here is what I'd like my Ghost Fragment to say (I warn you, it's a long one):
[b]Legend: Rossie[/b]
[spoiler]It is dark, so dark.
I cannot see my Guardian. I can faintly hear the shots from his handcannon and the whistle of his bow in the distance. These are the only sounds to be heard at all.
He is desparate, he has lost me in these black, jagged caves. My Light is starting to fade and so I will begin to erase the all of the data I have collected over the many years I spent with him. I recount what brought us here, to the moon:
[i]Zavala: Guardian, Cayde's scouts have picked up some strange Hive activity on the moon. I want you to go the centre of it and deal with them before they become an issue. I've transmitted the details to your Ghost. Good luck out there.
*upon arrival to Luna*
Eris: I sense something, the churning hellmouth has now fallen silent. Strange...
Something is happening. Find the source.
*at the gates of Temple of Crota*
Cayde: Guardian stop, you need to get out! The Hive are planning an ambu-
(radio crackling)
Ghost: Radios gone, we've lost them. What do you want to do?
Guardian: I don't like this. Somethings off. Let's get back to the ship. *A single roar is heard before everything turns black*[/i]
I rise to be separated from my Guardian in a dark, unmapped area of the Hellmouth hearing only faint gunfire and silence.
The seconds fly by and soon he has fallen silent. I am alone in the dark abyss of the Hellmouth where the shadows have eyes and the ground has teeth.
Then I begin to hear something far away. Almost a whisper in the night. The Hive are here and they are watching me. I try to find a path, something to lead me to outside but all I see is nothingness.
The whispers is louder now. I can begin to determine what the sound is. They are chanting quietly in the distance in some form of ritual. The same single word over and over. I begin to see a light as I move toward the chanting.
I can see him. But he is limp, and out of my reach. The Hive are in circle around his lifeless corpse, chanting and chanting with their hands risen, almost in gratitude.
They are larger the normal acolytes and knights found on the moon. They have broader shoulders with peculiar green energy spilling off them like mist. Their eyes are black and empty like the Darkness, instead of the green glow they usually have.
I try to reach him but I'm forced back by an unyielding power which blocks my quickly fading Light.
Their chanting grows louder and louder until an explosion of Darkness erupts from the body of the once Light filled Guardian I traveled with for so long. The mass of Darkness is writhing as I hide behind a rock, not daring to look. The Hive chanting now turns to screeching and roars as the ball of Dark takes its shape.
In a deep, low thundering voice the being roars "THERE IS LIGHT HERE, SHOW YOURSELF!"
I am propelled against my will out from behind the rock to face the creature. It's Darkness fills the whole room. Only a faint outline can be seen of it. It sees me and thunders
"LIGHT, I AM NOKRIS! AND I AM THE HERALD OF YOUR END!"
The Darkness swarms toward me and everything ceases.

Ok, here it is [spoiler] Ghost Fragment Ganymede- Day 1: "How do I start this...*clears throat* Yes, hello, this is Lieutenant Commander Sig of the Joint Faction Planetary Exploration Initiative. It is my assigned job to scount the largest Jovian Moon with the resources provided for the following month in order to evaluate the potential for a first line of defense against interstellar threats. I am keeping a backup record of my findings on my ghost as standard protocol dictates. End Transmission." Day 4: Sig-"Basic resources such as water, spin metal, relic iron, and pre-collapse fuel centers are available in abundance. So far this looks like an excellent place to make a second city, I will update the report after my first encounter with the wildlife. End Transmission." Day 7: Sig-"I know there's got to be something out here. There are claw marks on some trees that appear freshly made, and in some small coves there is slime that is still viscous though whether by chemical composition or time of production is unknown. It's very quiet here, and I have yet to see any life during the day so my guess is nocturnal fauna. I will set up some surveillance around areas of interest. End Transmission." Day 12: Sig-"After a few days of data collection, I think there's some species of snake living here, along with a few feet large reptiles as well. Unfortunately the surveillance gear is all but usable now, most of which is clogged with that slime. I'm sure the egg heads back home will be more than capable of making a coating to keep the stuff out. Overall I don't think they'll be a problem, they seem to keep to themselves. End Transmission." Day 18: Sig-"Day 18 of this scouting expedition. It appears there was a major oversight in the planning of this mission. If my estimates are correct, there will be an eclipse maybe 2 or 3 days from now. Ghost says it can last anywhere from 1 day to 1 week. I've already requested an early termination to the project, but the board is unwilling. How the hell am I supposed to scout if I can barely see anything, never mind the signs of recent activity in the area. End Transmission." Day 23: Sig-"This is Sig, send help! I repeat, SEND HELP! They've been here the whole time, all around me, around US! Any attempts to colonize the Jovian Moons must be abandoned. It isn't safe here for the light, I am making my way ba-" A deep voice is heard-"My will is not my own." Sig-"No...no no no no no no-" Soon, voices all around echo the same. "My will is not my own." Sig "NO! Get away fro-" *Disgusting popping and snapping sounds are heard* Sig-"Aaaauuuuuuuuugggllurrrggllrr-" End transmission. [/spoiler]

Nerf-Roaches, Part 1-3 Part 1: [spoiler]Shortly after the Collapse and the Guardians were created, the Crucible was formed to test a Guardian's abilities besides out in the field. During the process of making the Crucible arenas, workers found small cockroaches all around certain sites. However, these cockroaches felt off, looked off, and gave a menacing presence. Warlocks and scientists alike took part in studying them, but found nothing negative about them in the beginning. One day, a few months after the Crucible arenas opened, a Hunter while using his Arc Blade felt weakened after slicing up two targets. He couldn't explain why he felt so. He was checked out in the infirmary by doctors, but all they could find was one of the new roaches hanging off his cloak. Not even one, but a few. They were deemed harmless though, and were taken to labs for studies. When the Hunter reached full strength again, he tested out his Arc Blade in the arena again but something happened. His vision got blurry, and missed several swipes on an enemy Titan. When his vision cleared, he was being revived by his Ghost. This had never happened before, but he dismissed it initially. However, it began getting worse. His Blink was worsening, he was missing swipes that would normally hit, and even his weapons began to suffer defects. He had to constantly clean his gun after leaving the Crucible, trying to remove the roaches. Something was wrong.[/spoiler] Part 2: [spoiler]It wasn't just one Hunter though. Many Hunters began suffering from the same problems. Warlocks began feeling certain problems as well, but not with their Supers directly. Their Scorch only felt strong while coated in their own flames, and their grenades got weaker. Many Crucible contenders to believe foul play was involved somehow. However, everyone's weapons that they used were suffering from the roaches too. The weapons in question were Auto rifles and Fusion Rifles. These roaches were being studied more than ever, being found in the Iron Banner and Trials of Osiris as Year 2 comes closer and closer. These roaches seemed attracted to Hunters for the first year, but soon, when Sunbreaker Titans arrived after the fall of Thorn -in which the nerf roaches began infesting it along with all HandCannons soon suffering Thorn's fate-, they began suffering their fate at the hands of the roaches. They would sometimes be revived with them on them, Ghosts being unable to cleanse them. Shotguns were also affected, having their ranges reduced and their damage, as Guardians were now calling it, "nerfed". What is happening to the Guardians?[/spoiler] Part 3: [spoiler]Guardians are being infected all over, not just in the Crucible, Iron Banner, and Trials. Scouting parties that dealt with the House of Wolves per Petra Venji and Variks the Loyal's orders reported that their Supers kept getting weaker, there weapons becoming worse. Where only one Guardian managed to bring Skolas to his knees by herself, it took three to finish him in the Prison of Elders, with all three nearly losing their lives just getting to him. During the Darkblade escapade, two BladeDancers and a Sunbreaker went missing, forcing Cayde to send a backup party. The backup party was successful in killing Ala-Khul, but were only able to bring back the roach-infested Ghosts of their dead comrades. the roaches however, were dad alongside the Ghosts. It is finally believed that these roaches are now harmful parasites that will only affect living Guardians. Even the roaches in the weapons the deceased Guardians were dead, but it is believed that they were using the weapon as a home while eating away at the Guardians' light. Despite this, they were heavily infecting PvP arenas more than any place, presumably because that was where Guardians used their Light the most. As the era of The Last Word and 1000-Yard Stare entered the Crucible, everyone became paranoid that these weapons would become infested too. The paranoia grew as the MIDA Multi-Tool rose in arenas as well. As the paranoia grew worse and worse, and studies unable to slow down the infections and infestations. people are wondering why these "nerf-roaches" exist, and why they continue to torture the Guardians. Are they a form of the Darkness? No one knows, but these sinister insects are becoming worse and worse as Year 3 rolls around. I am beginning to wonder if these bugs will ever leave...[/spoiler]

Legend coyote "Stupid phalanx"

Legend: The Legionnaire He had died as he had lived; alone. He had devoted all of his life as a guardian trying to understand the motives and the power of the ancient race called the Vex. They perplexed him in so many ways, made him ask so many questions, and never had he received an answer. He had samples of the Vex. Working heads of Goblins, that for every minute he was with them, their sleepless red eye would track him as he paced back and forth. They told him unimaginable things, horrible things about the universe that were better left known to none. He could feel them when he was far far away from any living thing. They had become part of him... He idolized Kabr's work and ventured into the vault, finding his armor and taking hold of the mighty Aiegis soothed him. It was as if he were at home. The Vex did not attack, nor did they pursue him as he explored the ancient Vex complex. They studied him... They were as interested in him as he was in them. It was almost.. Beautiful. He entered a portal, and fearing this would be the end, told his ghost to relay what he had learned from the Vex to the Vanguard. As he entered, he was torn into millions of dimensions, bits and pieces of his memory were scattered across space and time, and left his body lifeless as they did so. He died in the vault, trying to understand the Vex... But how can one understand something that even itself doesn't understand?

"Always puts Hunters in their place."

"Another jumping puzzle. Don't worry, I'm sure I can get it this time ...." Even ghosts have a limit to how many times they will rez a guardian before they find a new one

"Stupid Eris Morn. Stupid, Stupid, Stupid." "Go get "the Seed of Crota" she said" "It's powerful and we need it" she said. Have you ever seen what they do to get the seed of a breeding stallion? ....a 30 foot rage-monster with a sword???? "Get the Seed of Crota" she said. "stupid Eris Morn"

Mysteries and Legends: Dead Ghost: The Lonewolf Order [spoiler]Rumors have always circulated in the tower, early crucible prototypes, whispers of one called pradeyth, osiris and the vex. But their is one feared and respected by all... unspoken, unknown. The Lonewolf 's were rumored to be the first guardians, but they did not help build the city or defend the people of the city, much like the nine they are unknown. Being the first they honed their abilities mastering each of the three subclasses they had. But they did not stop. Some continued to train learning titan abilities as warlocks, hunters as titans...... [/spoiler]

Legend of Distrbing: My guardian was a very strange one. As a warlock, I expected him to be a scholar, or at least interested in knowledge. Instead, he was like your average titan. He prided himself im forcepalming enemies in the dick. One day, he went to far. When facing the Hive in the Hellmouth, Distrbing did the one thing he took pride in. He proceeded to punch over nine thousand hive in the crotch. Eventually, he fell. I saw a smile on his face, as his last lightning strikes illuminated the darkness. I had to take safety, and I float here currently, my last drops of light fading. To find me, a guardian will have to do the most absolutely stupid hardcore parkour ever. No regrets.
