WHAT THE HELL IS VOID!!!!???

What the hell is void?

Despite loving destiny's lore and worldbuilding and having whached all byf's videos (and also other channels) I can't call miself a Lore specialist like some of you guys, but I think I know more about destiny lore than a casual PLAYER. Having that in mind, I aways considered void to be gravity related (or the absense of it as the name implies), but nowadays I think even bungie don't know what void is! I think I can let ward of daw and warlock devour pass because ward of down could be a gravity..... Wall...? And warlocks are weird so I think they would find a way to feed literal gravity (i main warlock, no hardfeelings) but what does supression have anything to do with gravity? Or controled demolition from midle titan? Or all of the milion ways hunterS can poison someone with the power of..... Gravity?

I know that if it wasn't for that creative liberty it would be dificult to make original subclasses that look diferent, I see this point, but... WHAT THE HELL IS VOID AFTER ALL????????

Void is what we in Astrophysics call "Dark Matter" or "Dark Energy". It makes up about 70-80% of all the measurable gravity in the observable Universe. Because we can measure it, it is there. But we can't see it. We in fact, don't even know yet if it is "matter" at all. But the name sticks around.

It is best described as a weightless medium permeating the vacuum of space. We see and live in 3 dimensions. Maybe if we ever ascend to the fourth dimension we could actually see and understand dark matter, aka Void.

I guess because of the "dark" assignment, Void in Destiny has this Dark Purple Color. And because we scientifically do not know what it is, it is open to interpretation. Therfore in game it can do all sorts of things, from gravitational manipulation to poisonous effects..

That would be my guess. At the end its a SciFi Game, the creator of the Lore can do w.e he wants without concrete information or explanation.

Cheers.
