Bio:
The daughter of Apostle born during the Dark Ages, Dianthe initially grew up knowing the common struggles of the Dark Ages to a lesser degree once her father became a Warlord and the protector of their village/town. As if a gift of spring itself, she was a bright spot in the people's lives, but none more so than her father as she was a bright, cheerful girl with a gentle heart and a caring soul. She grew up with a love of flowers and making things with her hands, specifically via sewing and weaving, but she also loved bright things (such as a pearl comb her father gifted her when she turned 15).
Centuries passed, and in her hands where she lay buried in the old, and now mostly abandoned town that her father guarded, Dianthe was awoken by a Ghost, her pearl comb in hand and an eternal flower crown on her head. Technically a Warlock, she is by all definitions a baby New Light as is just beginning to learn how to use her Light and control it. She still has her personality from before she died, but she tends to have mood swings more often now, especially as her Ghost (who is also new to life essentially) was not able to fully lock away her memories, and so she has very blurry flashes of her past life which usually end in her sulking away somewhere quiet in the Tower to cry. She was found shortly after her revival by a patrolling fireteam and was brought back to the Tower where, upon realizing she was a New Light, Zavala decided to give her a room in the Tower so that they could try and figure out what the right path was in terms of her training (none of the current Vanguard leaders wanting to put her through the more brutal routes, such as Crucible), and whether or not they should try to find out if she had any family who would take her in and away from the dangers of the field.
Hair: Dark green, usually held back by a circlet or in an updo / braid
Eyes: Very light/pale green,

Exo modifications: Metal and mechanical grafts onto parts of her body (those parts appear stone like), her legs are both fully mechanical exo legs that can turn into a naga-esc snake tail, her eyes are mechanical (think Ana’s eye), and she has small “snakes” attached to her head amongst her actual natural hair
—————
Positive Traits: Actually a softie, Patient (normally), Helpful (likes to try to be helpful at least, and normally secretly)
Neutral Traits: Sly, Intelligent, Shy, Curious,
Negative Traits: Insecure, Aggressive to cover up emotions,
Important Mental Health/Social Notes: Medusa has been away from human contact for a long time given that, after the Vex/Exo experiments, she fell into a pit of self-loathing and despair over what had happened to her and whether or not she’d even be able to return to the Tower and humanity as a whole. She has been attacked by some Guardians before, and while the situation was normally a misunderstanding, she still has some trust issues and goes through many lengths to try to hide the forced modifications to keep people from freaking out about her. She is trying to get back out into contact with others’ more now, but it will probably be a while before she actually trusts anyone enough to tell them what happened to her.

Bio:
Medusa always had a love of science and the stars. However, she had no say in her family taking to the Distributary, with the exception of her older sister who had already joined the Ishtar Collective for a secret project. And so, time made memories fade till Medusa had become one of the many Awoken born in the Distributary, though her rebirth weakened her legs greatly. In her time among the Awoken, she stayed out of the political games by focusing on training to be a Techeun, to find ways to merge science with the stars, and trying to find her lost sister. In the many years that passed through her training, Medusa not only traveled to the City to make contact with the rest of humanity (where she was also partially trained in the ways of a Warlock), she also traveled through the Ley Lines and stumbled across the Vex in the process. She studied them for a time, but when they turned their gaze towards her, she was unable to escape. Her first death, and the one that would inevitably lead to her Perseus finding her, was at their hands as they tried to “repair” her damaged body (both from her Distributary rebirth and from their guns) by replacing her flesh with Vex, and surprisingly, Exo parts. The trauma from the forced modifications is what killed her. How did her Ghost find her in a Vex domain? He had joined with a group of Risen who where traveling between Mercury and other locations of Vex activity, including places like the Black Garden and Vault of Glass. It was through their help that he found her. However, her rebirth came at the lives of three of the Guardians in that fireteam. They had, upon finding, been effectively turned to stone. In fear, the rest of the fireteam abandoned the place, and though she was now reborn and had a more experienced Ghost, Medusa was left to fend for herself within the Vex domain. She gained plenty of survival skills in the process, but the memory of the three petrified Guardians haunted her even after she got out, fearing that she herself had done that to them by accident. Hiding away from humanity, she practiced getting used to her new body, as well as relearning and training in both her Techeun and Warlock skill sets. Due to her amalgamation of skills and modifications, there were a few times wherein Guardians, and even Ghostless, saw glimpses of her and left her injured or dead, believing her to be a monster. The name Medusa grew to be both a gift and a burden in her mind, but unlike the myth, Perseus never slayed her, he brought her life and healing and comfort, and the two have an unbreakable bond as a result, with Perseus being the most precious thing in Medusa’s life. He is also the one who encouraged Medusa to try to find her sister again, as well as try to make contact with the Tower to try and get help, or at least to make sure the accidental killings stop.
Note: She is now most frequently found on Nessus and the Dreaming City as she tries to find her sister, and though she was out of the loop for a while, thanks to her Techeun abilities and such, she is caught up on all the current in game events happening and likely has made contact with Mara or Petra to offer her services.
Coreopsis, an engineer and mechanic, they are also a Hunter Guardian of the Vanguard. They usually stick to the Tower as they don’t handle some aspects of violence very well, unless they can support from a distance (such as sniping).
They have ADHD and Autism, they stim with their hands a lot, certain texture and feelings against their hands will cause a meltdown/panic attack, they also have trouble speaking quite frequently. They forget words and sometimes need help finding any word to use that’s suitable, they also are very blunt but very genuine, and have trouble understanding tone at times.
Their Ghosts’ name is Snowdrop but sometimes Coreopsis calls her Wrench.
