"The Speaker is actually the Consul" theory...?
I've seen many videos on YT talking about this weird theory, but I don't understand why people gives so much credit to it. Nothing new about that the Speaker could have a dark side, but... be [i]The Consul[/i]? How do you get so far?
We know that the Consul is a Cabal Political Leader behind Ghaul's ascent as Military Emperor. We know that thanks to him, Ghaul managed to usurp the throne to Calus and exile him. But according to our sources this happened thousands years before Destiny's events. [i]THOUSANDS[/i]. The Speaker was not even there... he was revived like every other Guardian by a Ghost. He is a Warlock. We know this.
So esactly why do you think that the Speaker may be the Consul actually?

2 RepliesNot that anyone of us (or possibly even bungie themselves) really know, but I immediately disregard any lore theory that the speaker is secretly (insert crazy idea/character here). The whole speaker is evil, or is Taox, or is somehow a puppet of Savathun or one of the nine, etc were all theories floating around. Other than the speaker being so vague and undeveloped as a character that he could literally be anyone or anything (I mean, have you ever actually seen sweeper bot and the speaker in the same room??!?!) there is no proof or even hint that he is related at all to anything cabal or anything else.
