So, as I do from time to time, I oggled ol' Xur and tried to decide what class he would be. Hunter, Titan, or Warlock. For the first time, I realized he has a patchwork of all three class specific gear. The hood of a hunter cloak, the bond of a warlock, and the mark of a titan.
That previous thought made me simply say "oh neat, Xur is able to rock whatever he feels like". Fast forward 3 hours now. Mid crucible match, I verbalize the thought "Holy shit! The Nine! They're masters of all 9 subclasses!" at my team. I explained myself, apologized for the scare I gave them, and we chatted for a bit about how cool a concept that is. Also, mentioning how monstrously terrifying a striker titan with throwing knives and self rez is. Let that image settle in...
So, likely, this is nothing. But it was a cool little "ah ha!" moment that I deemed interesting enough to share, seeing as we really know almost nothing about Xur and The Nine. Please, discuss!
TL;DR - What if The Nine are masters of all 9 subclasses and can freely utilize any and all abilities.
EDIT 1: I am fully aware this is highly unlikely everyone. It's a cool concept to spark some conversation. Let's keep this a toxic free post, as those are rare enough to come by on these forums. I am enjoying all the feedback though!

A cool note i always remember about Xur: i remember reading that xur only sells what the 9 don't use anymore; so what [i]DO[/i] the 9 use?
