What do you think the final shape enemy should be?
Lightfall/The Final Shape is a far way off right? Well, what would you ideally want in the final race to be presented if you could fight them tomorrow?
My list for these beings would be simple:
Mysterious
Polar opposite to light guardians
Mysterious. I want them to be filled with surprise after surprise that makes me change how I have fought any other enemy. Like the Taken for the first time (replicating psions was a brilliant move honestly).
Polar opposite to light guardians. I want them to have a weapon or ability to suppress light-based capabilities which is why we have lost against them for so long or lore implications for destroying their items of interest (like a destabilization effect which makes them more primal or stronger or both- think brutes from Halo when enraged).
What would your list include?

The Final Shape is simply the end goal of the Darkness and it’s minions, it’s not a designated enemy race. Sword Logic states that a species must stake their claim on existence by seeking to end that of others before they can end them, with the Final Shape being the endpoint of that philosophy. Once the main candidate for this position was the Hive, with Oryx assuming the mantle of Champion of the Deep. However we changed things when we killed Oryx, albeit not as we were meant to but still. Now the Darkness has taken an interest in Guardians, seeking to get us to agree with its philosophy. Which in fairness to it, before this year should’ve been easy on paper given the fact we’ve essentially been following the Sword Logic since our resurrection. Our armistice with Caital and alliance with Mithrax goes directly against this however, and these sorts of actions are likely what’s going to motivate the Darkness to move against us directly.
