by

Summary

  • Destiny 2 players are creating tributes to characters from various media, like Star Wars and Marvel, through character customization.
  • Star Wars characters in Destiny 2 have sparked creativity among players, with custom versions of Darth Nihilus being a standout example.
  • The collaboration between Destiny 2 and Star Wars continues to inspire players to recreate iconic villains from both universes.

A player of “Destiny 2” recently designed their in-game character to resemble the feared Darth Nihilus from “Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2”. Since players can personalize their Guardian within “Destiny 2”, it’s not uncommon to see homages to characters from other video games like “Hollow Knight” and “Doom: The Dark Ages”. Even comics and movies have influenced “Destiny 2”, with its characters being based on iconic figures such as Wall-E and Carnage from Marvel Comics.

In a broad sense, Star Wars incorporates various forms of media and more, while Destiny 2’s science fiction style makes it an ideal match for the characters of the Galactic Empire Far, Far Away. This year, there was an official crossover between Destiny 2 and Star Wars, introducing costumes inspired by Darth Vader, General Grievous, and the iconic Stormtroopers from the Empire. However, this is just a glimpse into the might of the Dark Side’s army, and some players of Destiny 2 are inventing their own versions of classic villains dating back to the era of the Old Republic.

Reddit user ‘iixVanquishxX’ recently posted their customized version of Darth Nilhilus from KOTOR 2 on the r/DestinyFashion subreddit. This Guardian, clad in the Hunter class, bears a striking resemblance to the undead dark lord with its black hood, matching robes, and skull-like mask meant to instill fear. The user even accessorized their character with Vader’s red lightsaber, showcasing it in one of the images they shared for combat against any opposition to the Sith.

Destiny 2 Player Recreates KOTOR 2’s Darth Nihilus

Darth Nihilus, a fearsome Sith Lord, made his debut in the 2004 game “Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic 2”. He is often regarded by fans as one of the most terrifying Sith characters due to his unique characteristics. Unlike other dark side users, Nihilus possesses a vampiric nature. After surviving the catastrophic Mass Shadow Generator weapon that destroyed Malachor V, he became known as a “wound in the Force”. This insatiable hunger drives him to consume other Force-sensitive beings, eventually leading him to join Darth Traya’s Sith Triumvirate.

Although Darth Nihilus isn’t currently included in Disney’s official Star Wars continuity, he remains one of the most iconic characters to emerge from the franchise’s various video games due to his unique traits and foreboding appearance. These characteristics are prominently featured in iixVanquishxX’s custom Destiny 2 Guardian, suggesting a surge of darkness and fear throughout Bungie’s multiplayer sci-fi shooter.
