I believe that the Nine are the nine Iron Wolves that are spoken of in the grimoire. Rumored to be suuuuuper powerful gaurdians that rose to protect the city when noone else could. Xur says he is the Nines trashman which leads me to believe that exotics are their trash (which would give weight to the fact that they are extremely powerful). What if to the Nine exotics were like common engrams? Full exotic to the Nine is like full common for the rest of us. Garbage.

I wish bungie would go into depth with the twilight gap battle or let us relive it
-
New rarity maybe? Like mythic!
-
The Nine Iron Wolves or the Iron Lords are the people who's names appear on your Iron Banner gear. Felwinter, Radagast and Skorri. While your theory is good, the "Nine" that Xur supposedly works under are based in the outer worlds past the reef. We know for a fact that the only Iron Lord still alive is Saladin. The rest died before the battle of Twilight Gap.
-
The Iron Lords are separate from the Iron Wolves actually. While similar they are not one and the same. There are only six Iron Lords but there are nine Iron Wolves. Who disappeared from the City after saving it. Who is to say they haven't gone past the reef and are relaxing on the planetary equivalent of Fiji?
-
While they are different the Iron Wolves are dead. They died in the battle before Twilight Gap. The Iron "Lords" died during Twilight Gap. On top of that, we can gather from miscellaneous NPC dialogue that the "Nine" are a force above that of the light. They/it serve they're/it's own purpose.

Can you send me links to anything saying they are all dead in or before the Twilight Gap?
-
Maybe they did die, but assuming they were guardians (and all guardians have transcended death in some way) maybe they found a way to be more than light or just something other than light. (Such as what Xur and other NPC's say the nine are)
-
Hold on
-
No problem :) i like these kind of fan theory convos. Maybe we can come up with something legit.
-
Okay, so I'm having trouble finding anything on the Nine. But let's make the assumption that they're the one pulling the strings. Releasing Skolas and the like. They work for their one means and help the Darkness or the Guardians equally. Come to think of it, Xur gives us Exotics, and the Darkness is given Skolas. Maybe they helped release Eris because they knew that would bring about Oryx. I think we're on to something.
-
Hmmmm interesting....so the Nine are basically only there to bring balance to The Force? (In this case the light and the darkness) or do they have some master plan for the universe? What if they brought about Oryx to test the will and the strength of the newly resurrected Guardians and really their plan is a bit sinister?
-
I'm thinking more along the lines of a master plan thing. Like they're secretly funding both sides of the war and then they wipe out the winner and reap both the rewards. Two birds with one stone.
-
Ooooh thats good. Thats reaally good. So the Nine are the ones funding both sides here. I wonder what the ultimate goal is then.
-
I have no idea. One can only imagine what the goal of people with that much power could be. If I had to guess though, it would be annihilation.
-
could you please link anything referring to these iron wolves? I've never hard of them.

http://www.destinypedia.com/Iron_Wolves gimme a sec and i'll get a couple more for you

Edited by Banjovi: 12/31/2015 4:01:54 AMthanks man, very interesting that they're separate from the lords. although, I would like to note, there are nine iron lords, not six.

-
Correction there are nine in both groups however they are two different groups.
-
Good theory man maybe once the nine are revealed in the game we might get a new level of weapons and armour
-
That's scary to think about.
-
Right? But that would make way for us to get better armor or at least the ability to wear more than one piece of exotic. (Maybe in destiny 2) Scary thoughts.
-
I guess. Though its seems like we are being able to equip more and more exotics. first only two, now three possible 4 or 5 if they ever added exotic ghosts, sparrows, ships.
-
It's actually possible to wear 4 exotics if you have the year 1 ToO emblem.
