The speaker once told Ghaul the requirements to be chosen by the Traveler, yet he never once said that some one had to be a certain species to wield the Light,
Rather his words where: "The Light lives in all things."
I believe it would be possible for an Eliksni to be Risen by a ghost, because Fallen can be good,
many worked along side the Awoken under the rule of Mara Sov for years. Not to mention Mithrax and his newly formed House of Light.
I wish we could have Elinski Gaurdians added as an extra class, I say class because the difference in design could allow for passives or abilities designed around their extra arms that would make the race different enough to need different treatment than the others.

Guardians require ghosts. The Traveler fled too early when the Whirlwind arrived. The main reason we have Guardians is that the Traveler decided to stay for some still unknown reason. Now that’s not to say that the Fallen didn’t have some sort of “super fallen,” afterwards. Pre-collapse had genetic splicing, exo technology, etc. If the Great Machine was around for lomg enough, I assume they had an equivalent.

[theoretically, maybe. It would require for the eliksni to somehow prove to the traveler, or more appropriately the gardener who resides inside of the traveler, they are worthy of the lights blessing and potentially have members get risen as lightbearers post mortem.]

Edited by KingMort: 6/14/2020 8:20:35 PMMithrax is risen, I believe. I could be wrong. Edit: just looked it up. Variks states in the lore, that Mithrax died more than once, but he’s not a scorn. He’s also the leader of House Of Light, and currently in a fire team with a hunter and a warlock. He’s helped us in the lore on more than one occasion, including getting us into the old tower to get Outbreak Perfected. He probably has a ghost, but might not want to alarm humanity at the possibility that humanity’s most long running enemies, the fallen, could be able to fight them with light.

Edited by TheMysticElk: 6/15/2020 9:57:32 PMIf I'm not mistaken there is a lore entry regarding pulled pork (uldrens ghost).He basically claims his guardian could be anything other than a human/awoken/exo as he scans rocks for a potential guardian lol.. so going by pulled porks dialogue who's to say eliksni can't become guardians if they are deemed worthy! If bungie implemented eliksni guardians then I wonder would we be dregs,vandals or captains? or would that be too much to implement into the game hmm! We can only hope lol!

The Traveler specifically gifted the Light to Humanity (and by extension the Exos and Awoken). No other species has been given this gift because the Traveler never stayed to fight the Darkness with any other species.

I'm not sure the Speaker is the example you want to put your chips on. He never really amounted to much.

<Only if the Traveler deemed it.>
