Xur is an interesting character to me. He brings up so many questions. Who is he? What is he? What are "the Nine?" Why does he like Strange Coins, and why is he willing to trade them for far more useful items?
All this mystery, all this lore, all dressed up like an alien version of the Resident Evil 4 Merchant!
So I ask again: To you, who is Xur? What place does he have in your created lore?
(Meant for the group "Scribes of the Tower.")
(Anyone can join, so long as you're interested in expanding on Destiny's lore in some way.)

Xur is someone or a collection of someone,'s that CHOSE there date to live being the reef in the jovian planets (planets beyond the reef and just out of reach of the light as the light only travels as far as the reef. By stating they CHOOSE to go all the way out there too the "outer world s" as he calls them. The nine choose to live out beyond the reef where as the awoken did not. And that last part is taken directly from a grimore card.
