“
Child, I have everything you wanted. I am immortal. I know the great secrets of the universe. I have scouted the edges of the Darkness and I have chased the lying god down galactic arms in a howling pack of moons. In my fist I carry the secret power that will rule eternity. In my worm I bear the tribute of my Court and of my children, the Hope-Eater, the Weaver, and the Unraveler; and with this tribute I smash my foes. I am Oryx, the Taken King. I am almighty.
„
“
And armed thus with my past, and my future, and my present (which is a weapon, a weapon that takes whatever is available, a weapon bound to malice), they will mantle me, Oryx, the Taken King. They will become me and I will become them, each of us defeating the other, correcting the other, alloying ourselves into one omnipotent philosophy. Thus I will live forever. I’ll make sure.
Name: Oryx, Aurash, Auryx, Destroyer of Light, Taker of Will, King of Shapes, King of Bone, First Navigator, Primogenitor of Possibilities, The Demon King, Harrowed God, Lord of Chaos and Ruin, King of Subjugation, King of Depths, He Who Mastered Shapes
Lifting Strength: The weight the character can lift/move, usually expressed in tons. However it is optional since lifting strength generally doesn't matter in most fights (in bold).
Striking Strength: The attack power of the character's physical attacks/blows (in bold).
Durability: The amount of attack power the character can withstand before being overwhelmed (in bold).
Stamina: Limitless (Fought for twenty thousand years straight against Savathun and Xivu Arath, and has existed for billions of years with no rest)
Range: The distance the character's attacks/abilities can cover.
Weaknesses: As a member of the Hive, his love devolved into killing his siblings over and over, so they could all better themselves in Sword Logic.
Notable Attacks/Techniques:
Key: Avatars | Ascendant Realm
Note: In matches where Oryx's true form is used, by default the match has to take place within his Throne World within the Ascendant Realm since that's the only area where he exists in such a primordial state.
