The Irish culture represented in the destiny Universe:
So this is gonna, maybe be the shortest #culturepost I’ve done. Anyways, time to look at how the Irish culture has inspired Destiny’s weapons. Yes that’s it. It’s just weapons. Enjoy:
Weapons:
- Manannan SR4 - a sea deity of Irish legend
- Somerlad-D - a mid-12th century warlord, who rose in prominence and control of the kingdom of the Isles.
- Stringbow-D - Irish Warlord
- Aoife Rua-D - Irish Warrior Queen
- Cúchulainn-D - Cúchulainn is an Irish mythological hero who appears in the stories of the Ulster Cycle.
[spoiler]if you got this far, thank you for reading. I’d really appreciate if you leave any that I couldn’t find and I’ll edit OP with your find.

1 ReplyBanshee-44: Banshee means "wailing woman" or "fairy woman" from Irish mythology. Their cries are said to heard by people who are about to die. To be clear, they don't kill anyone, just very loudly mourn their impending doom.

Never realized what a wild polyglot of cultures Destiny's armory and arsenal truly are. Thanks for all this. :)

As an Ulsterman myself I can confirm the last one. We still have some painted murals around Belfast of that legend, well, not including the ones painted over by the local paramilitaries.
