Rasputin Woke Itself Using Cayde-6 As It's Agent

K143NNI070XNX019 FORUM INSTANT AI-COM/RSPN: FORUM//SxISR//POST I am invoking XENOPHON. Information dissemination protocols are active. Assuming control of EXO forum/LORE asset [KGH] for creation of new thread. ________________________________________________________________________ This is a followup to the thread [url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Post/183625335/0/0]Rasputin, The FWC, & The Birth of The Exo[/url]. The gist of it is that Rasputin was working in conjunction with the Golden Age Researchers of the Ishtar Academy in studying the Device: a piece of Vex technology that allows the users to see varying timelines of the future. This Device took a great toll on the flesh-and-blood users, and Rasputin had to find ways for subjects to safely use the Device. Rasputin took part in the development of the exo on Europa (likely based on existing proxy-body technology used by the Ishtar Academy). The newly created exo were used them as assets for both using the Device, and for warfare. Full explanation (and FWC's origins) as well as citations available in the linked thread. One of the pieces of evidence I used was that Cayde-6, an exo, is said to be the vessel of Rasputin by Andal Brask, the previous hunter Vanguard. [quote]My old friend Andal—he used to stand here, right in this spot—he'd come up with these wild stories. He'd say, you know, Cayde, I've been examining the evidence, and personally I've come to think it's you. You're Rasputin, legendary Warmind, defender of Earth. And I wish you'd remember that, so you could reclaim your full power and save us all. (Ghost Fragment: Rasputin)[/quote] This cannot be fully accurate however because Cayde-6 was once a flesh-and-blood human, and therefore cannot merely be a vessel for Rasputin ([url=https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3kxclc/spoilers_inside_caydes_treasure_island_notes/]Cayde's notes[/url]). What is possible though is that Rasputin planted a hidden program in Cayde-6's mind during his transition to becoming an exo. Such a program could make Cayde-6 to perform actions on behalf of Rasputin. I believe there is evidence of this. In The Promethean Code mission dialogue, Cayde-6 reveals that he broke into Rasputin before. This is how he obtained the stealth codes for bladedancer cloaking. Interestingly, scanning a machine inside the bunker during the mission reveals that one particular console was the first site in which Rasputin regained control, and the ghost concludes that maybe Rasputin didn't wake himself ([url=https://youtu.be/NeMO5X5ufM0?t=1m3s]source[/url]). The previously linked source says that four people (or pairs of eyes) have access to Rasputin's bunker via simultaneous retinal scans, and have been accessing it over the course of hundreds of years, suggesting immortality, or preserved eyeballs. Given that exos are, or were assets of Rasputin, and exos don't die of old age, this could mean that it was exos that have access (assuming the retinal scan works on exo eyes), or the exos are the ones in possession of the preserved eyeballs. I think it is likely that Cayde-6 (and perhaps 3 others) was driven to enter Rasputin's bunker by the hidden program implanted his head by Rasputin; he might not even be aware of it, and he might even believed himself to be doing it for the possible treasures. The program's purpose is a reactivation mechanism to bring back Rasputin, and the program drove him to use that console to awaken Rasputin. As an exo, the possibility of this scares me. For all I know, me making this post could just be a result of a hidden protocol implanted in my mind by Rasputin.
