On the forefront of Mars, you'll find these powerful giants. The Cabal are a militarised alien force with clear ranks and classes, similar to that of the Ancient Romans of our own history. They come in four known classes:

This monstrous force is as powerful as it is unknown. It nearly destroyed us, but we know next to nothing about it. According to the Grimoire, it's depicted as a storm of Darkness, mainly thunder clouds.

The Fallen aren't your typical alien force, but then again, what is? They are more like us than we care to admit. They've become scavengers, picking up scraps to survive and traveling around in scouting packs. Once, they were from noble, powerful houses. Now, they are but a shadow of their former selves. They believe Earth is rightfully theirs and hold large hideouts like the Devils' Lair that few venture to strike. They are based off of people like the Saxons and pirates. They come in three different variants:

They also have two known mechanical combatants:

Lastly, they have one known vehicle:

[url=http://i.imgur.com/tMDkHBe.jpg][u][b]Hive[/b][/u][/url]
These zombie-like creatures reside in the deepest pits of our worlds. The lurk in the shadows of Venus and the caverns of the Moon, which is where their main lair is. The aren't afraid to close the distance between you and them so they can slash you to pieces. They are based off of Egyptian history and mythology. They come in five different forms:

The Vex are time traveling robots made of both cybernetics and organic material. They are merciless and will slaughter you without hesitation.They are strongly based off of Greek history and mythology. They come in five different variants (but we've only properly seen three):

Official necro-charlie day is here!
-
Interesting..... Those are cool concepts, I can't wait to see them in destiny!
-
Woot! Good info! Very well organized!

Edited by Apotheox: 6/8/2014 8:27:46 AMCharlemagne, I think you should change the title "Darkness" to "The Darkness". I know it's quite trivial, but it just makes more sense that way. I can't fully put into words why. I hope you understand where I'm coming from.
-
The Darkness could be the surprise mid-late game enemy if they are one.
-
I know it's not confirmed, but would it be worth mentioning sub categories such as the husk wizard we saw in one gameplay snippet?
-
I'll try to find the source but didn't DeeJ hint at one point that the Fallen, Cabal, Vex and Hive are past victims of the Darkness? Like that is why they're following the Traveler and stuff. I might be completely imagining this but I remember something about him hinting this for some reason

Edited by Spooky Delusor: 6/7/2014 3:31:23 AMI would add in that the fallen are split into different houses and don't necessarily work together, but this is a great thread.
-
Edited by Tibbaryllis2: 6/5/2014 2:38:28 AMI was under the assumption this was a Vex Hydra. Nice summary btw.
-
Nice job sir. This should help out all who need it.
-
Great thread! Well organized, well written, and great images showing off the different enemies. Although I have to ask about one part [quote][u][b]Darkness[/b][/u] This monstrous force is as powerful as it is unknown. It nearly destroyed us, but we know next to nothing about it.[/quote] Where did you find out about this Darkness? It sounds familiar but I can't really recall. Either I've seen it mentioned a few times prior or I've forgotten about it after reading about it previously.
-
Does anybody know if there are going to be more enemies in the game? I would have to Imagine there would be, as 5 different races seems small. Is Bungie going to announce more?
-
Great info dude!
-
Thanks!
-
I read all if this in gameinformer over 7 months ago.
-
Nice work you've done here. Thanks for the information.
-
Edited by Slanky: 6/5/2014 6:41:48 PMAwesome compilation of screenshots, i especially like that Hobgoblin shot, looks bad ass. nice choice.
-
The Darkness??? Who are they??? What do they want???
-
Great list, it helps me appreciate the detail that has gone into the enemies physical appearance. I can't wait to fight them.
-
Charlemagne, can we take this post as a request to assist with the Cabal problem in your mighty vault?
-
Awesome thread. It will definitely help the newbies.

The placement of those captions look like censor bars...
