I don't think the stranger is Toax, since Toax is one of the proto-Hive (not an exo) and oryx's sisters are still alive. They leave him sometime before the hive come to earth to try and become stronger. So we can assume that they'll be in some kind of DLC.

The traveler and more "moons" existed in this place, and from what I understand it is because of the traveler the Exo exist as sentient life
-
The traveler indirectly created exos. The traveler created the golden age which allowed humans to create the exo
-
Humans did create exos aka robots but the light from the traveler gave them their own "souls"
-
Humans both created the Exos and their consciousnesses through a subroutine known as Deep Stone Crypt. Some, if not all Exos, were once human
-
As in they keep the same consciousness, kind of like the movie Chappie?
-
Yes, but they have little to no memories of their past life. Some, like Cayde, have occasional relapses, and some Exos become thanatonauts, purposely killing themselves to gain knowledge

Taox is Speaker?
-
Taox is supposed to be a chick but so is oryx? So maybe lol. Maybe in the world of destiny women are men and vice versa
-
Only Hive can pull that off. But the Speaker is as big as an Acolyte and maybe he is blending in for centuries.

Oryx was a female and over time became male. This implies their race was similar to how frogs and certain species of fish can chemically change sex based on circumstances: [quote]In most species of sex-changing fish, the males are the alpha sex, meaning the males are larger and more aggressive and usually do very little if any tending of the eggs. In these species, fish start out as female when they are small and then change sex into males when they get large enough or tough enough to establish behavioral dominance over the other fish in their group.
