So when I played the VoG raid the other day, I got the pair of hunter boots that replaces one of your legs with a vex leg. Skipping the long period of excited laughter and cheer, I started trying to come up with a backstory for what happened that made me replace my leg with a vex one. So that's the request: help me come up with some backstory for these vex parts (the warlock boots replace both legs I believe).
Here's what I've come up with so far:
[i]Marv: Mother of God, when is this spire going to form? I feel like we've been sitting here for hours.
Ghost: It's been 5 minutes, have patience.
Marv: Fine fine! At least there're plenty of things to shoot in the meantime.
*The spire is fully formed*
Marv: Hot damn! It's about time. Gonna get me some sweet loot. Hang on, gotta strap on my Bones of Eao first.
*The team moves through the first maze, and make it to the chest*
Marv: A legendary engram?! Man this is some ogre sh*t.
*They move on to the Templars room*
*20 minutes later*
Marv: F*ck me, those oracles are obnoxious. At least now we'll get a real fight.
*The fight starts, the team shreds the oracles and takes down his shield*
Marv: Eat this, you big ugly bastard! *shoots Shadowshot at the Templar, but overshoots by a little* Ya gotta be kidding me! Every other motherf*cking time. Ah well, the Titan popped a Weapons bubble.
*unloads all of his Sleeper ammo* Didn't miss that time! Ghost, use a heavy ammo synth....Ghost?
Ghost: Sorry I was waiting for your inventory to load.
Marv: What? You mean you actually have to-*Marv gets hit by an explosion and is taken down*
Ghost: Hey, get up you lazy asshole, the fight's over.
*Marv jumps up after Ghost's revival, but notices he's a little off balance. He looks down to see his left leg has been replaced by the scraps of a goblin he killed earlier*
Marv: What the F*CK?! Where is my leg?! I thought Ghosts could completely reconstruct Guardians!
Ghost: Yeah... about that. Your remains fell on top of a pile of goblins, so when I atomized you, I accidentally picked up some extra pieces. When I reconstructed you, your data got corrupted, and you popped out with a goblin leg.
Marv: What the hell, Ghost?! Fix it now![/i]
And that's where I'm stuck. The rest could probably use a lot of improvement, but I'm not that creative when it comes to this type of thing, so...

I'd go for something more like A guardian tries to shoot templar with sleeper while in bubble. You can guess what happens next.
-
A bloody Goblin with a torch hammer blows off your leg and whilst you're on the ground you pick up your explosive rounds Fate bringer and shoot off [i]his[/i] leg. You use your light-channeling abilities to attach it to your pelvis and still have the exact same coordination and stuff even tho the move super slowly, indicating that their legs suck.
