Title says it.
Variks is a swell fellow, and you have to admire his loyalty to his people, but... abandoning his post in the Prison of Elders, and setting off the chain of events leading to Uldren busting out, along with 8 Scorned Barons and a horde of Scorn, Cayde dying, and the Dreaming City being locked into a Taken Curse kinda puts a little bit of bad light to the guy.
I mean literally, if he hadn’t completely abandoned the prison Cayde would more than likely be alive. As a Hunter main I find that fact hard to overlook.
And the other major candidate, Eramis the Ship Stealer, is definitely a no. I mean she’s trying to rebuild the House of Devils and is getting into some janky business trying to get her claws on some SIVA. Dunno about you but I remember last time Fallen got into SIVA... it wasn’t pretty.
Mithrax has desired to rebuild the Eliksni race hand in hand with humans, Awoken, and Exo. They’ve shown their capability of alliance before with the Awoken of the Reef. And Mithrax has proven his goodwill by aiding us in the Zero Hour mission.
Mithrax for Kell of Kells
[spoiler]if bungie made a “Vote for Pedro” shirt with “Vote for Mithrax” I would absolutely have to have it.[/spoiler]
[spoiler]also, if we forge an alliance with the Fallen, the Traveler might bless them again? We might be able to play as a Fallen in D3, which would be awesome?[/spoiler]

Variks won’t like that...
