Let's get creative and post your own Ghost Fragments about your character below!
Here is what I'd like my Ghost Fragment to say (I warn you, it's a long one):
[b]Legend: Rossie[/b]
[spoiler]It is dark, so dark.
I cannot see my Guardian. I can faintly hear the shots from his handcannon and the whistle of his bow in the distance. These are the only sounds to be heard at all.
He is desparate, he has lost me in these black, jagged caves. My Light is starting to fade and so I will begin to erase the all of the data I have collected over the many years I spent with him. I recount what brought us here, to the moon:
[i]Zavala: Guardian, Cayde's scouts have picked up some strange Hive activity on the moon. I want you to go the centre of it and deal with them before they become an issue. I've transmitted the details to your Ghost. Good luck out there.
*upon arrival to Luna*
Eris: I sense something, the churning hellmouth has now fallen silent. Strange...
Something is happening. Find the source.
*at the gates of Temple of Crota*
Cayde: Guardian stop, you need to get out! The Hive are planning an ambu-
(radio crackling)
Ghost: Radios gone, we've lost them. What do you want to do?
Guardian: I don't like this. Somethings off. Let's get back to the ship. *A single roar is heard before everything turns black*[/i]
I rise to be separated from my Guardian in a dark, unmapped area of the Hellmouth hearing only faint gunfire and silence.
The seconds fly by and soon he has fallen silent. I am alone in the dark abyss of the Hellmouth where the shadows have eyes and the ground has teeth.
Then I begin to hear something far away. Almost a whisper in the night. The Hive are here and they are watching me. I try to find a path, something to lead me to outside but all I see is nothingness.
The whispers is louder now. I can begin to determine what the sound is. They are chanting quietly in the distance in some form of ritual. The same single word over and over. I begin to see a light as I move toward the chanting.
I can see him. But he is limp, and out of my reach. The Hive are in circle around his lifeless corpse, chanting and chanting with their hands risen, almost in gratitude.
They are larger the normal acolytes and knights found on the moon. They have broader shoulders with peculiar green energy spilling off them like mist. Their eyes are black and empty like the Darkness, instead of the green glow they usually have.
I try to reach him but I'm forced back by an unyielding power which blocks my quickly fading Light.
Their chanting grows louder and louder until an explosion of Darkness erupts from the body of the once Light filled Guardian I traveled with for so long. The mass of Darkness is writhing as I hide behind a rock, not daring to look. The Hive chanting now turns to screeching and roars as the ball of Dark takes its shape.
In a deep, low thundering voice the being roars "THERE IS LIGHT HERE, SHOW YOURSELF!"
I am propelled against my will out from behind the rock to face the creature. It's Darkness fills the whole room. Only a faint outline can be seen of it. It sees me and thunders
"LIGHT, I AM NOKRIS! AND I AM THE HERALD OF YOUR END!"
The Darkness swarms toward me and everything ceases.

Ok, here it is [spoiler] Ghost Fragment Ganymede- Day 1: "How do I start this...*clears throat* Yes, hello, this is Lieutenant Commander Sig of the Joint Faction Planetary Exploration Initiative. It is my assigned job to scount the largest Jovian Moon with the resources provided for the following month in order to evaluate the potential for a first line of defense against interstellar threats. I am keeping a backup record of my findings on my ghost as standard protocol dictates. End Transmission." Day 4: Sig-"Basic resources such as water, spin metal, relic iron, and pre-collapse fuel centers are available in abundance. So far this looks like an excellent place to make a second city, I will update the report after my first encounter with the wildlife. End Transmission." Day 7: Sig-"I know there's got to be something out here. There are claw marks on some trees that appear freshly made, and in some small coves there is slime that is still viscous though whether by chemical composition or time of production is unknown. It's very quiet here, and I have yet to see any life during the day so my guess is nocturnal fauna. I will set up some surveillance around areas of interest. End Transmission." Day 12: Sig-"After a few days of data collection, I think there's some species of snake living here, along with a few feet large reptiles as well. Unfortunately the surveillance gear is all but usable now, most of which is clogged with that slime. I'm sure the egg heads back home will be more than capable of making a coating to keep the stuff out. Overall I don't think they'll be a problem, they seem to keep to themselves. End Transmission." Day 18: Sig-"Day 18 of this scouting expedition. It appears there was a major oversight in the planning of this mission. If my estimates are correct, there will be an eclipse maybe 2 or 3 days from now. Ghost says it can last anywhere from 1 day to 1 week. I've already requested an early termination to the project, but the board is unwilling. How the hell am I supposed to scout if I can barely see anything, never mind the signs of recent activity in the area. End Transmission." Day 23: Sig-"This is Sig, send help! I repeat, SEND HELP! They've been here the whole time, all around me, around US! Any attempts to colonize the Jovian Moons must be abandoned. It isn't safe here for the light, I am making my way ba-" A deep voice is heard-"My will is not my own." Sig-"No...no no no no no no-" Soon, voices all around echo the same. "My will is not my own." Sig "NO! Get away fro-" *Disgusting popping and snapping sounds are heard* Sig-"Aaaauuuuuuuuugggllurrrggllrr-" End transmission. [/spoiler]
