The Witness (Furry) (Destiny 2)

Appearance

The Witness is a tall, pale-skinned feline ancient being. Most of its features are obscured by its metallic robe-like clothing, which constantly ripples and shifts seemingly of its own accord. Its long black cloak emanates the same resonance as other Darkness artifacts have done. Among its most notable features is a column of white "smoke" that is continually billowing from the top of its head, which forms a multitude of humanoid faces as it spreads and dissipates. Its true face is partially concealed, but it can be seen to have large, dark eyes and a rectangular pattern of gray lines on its brow and forehead. It has white fur, grey fluffy tail, big cat ears, and long eyelashes. The witness appears male, but it could be the opposite, so nobody knows.

Abilities

The Witness is an extremely powerful wielder of the Darkness, perhaps more so than any other being in the universe. It is evidently capable of using the Darkness to move entire planets between realities, causing them to disappear from the physical plane to a realm under the Witness's complete control; this is suggested to be a more refined application of the same powers that enable the creation of Taken. When Mars reappeared in the Sol System after having vanished following the arrival of the Pyramids, the surface of the world was covered with patches of terrain that appeared to have been temporally displaced, showing Mars as it had been at various points in the past. The Witness has also displayed a number of other terrifyingly powerful abilities, presumably also stemming from its mastery of the Darkness. During the Black Fleet's final assault on the Traveler, the Witness was able to effortlessly withstand a blast of pure Light emitted by the Traveler, and neutralized incoming Guardians in Jumpships with a mere gesture that reduced the vessels and their occupants to neatly-sliced segments. It has also demonstrated the ability to take command of Ghosts, using them as proxies to speak to Guardians or other beings. Additionally, it can manifest visions of itself from a great distance to communicate with its servants, with its image being projected through what resembles a plane of shattered glass appearing in midair.

Personality

The Witness appears to possess a very calm and stoic personality, almost never expressing any perceptible emotion even in the face of setbacks to its plans. It has been seen to speak in a flattering, almost mentor-like tone when talking directly towards the Guardians or its Disciples.

Background

The Witness, also known as the Entity, or the Voice in the Darkness, is an immensely powerful Darkness-wielding being who commands the Black Fleet. Originating from the first known civilization uplifted by the Traveler, it is the product of an entire species having merged into one entity through the mastery of the Darkness; their minds bound together into a single gestalt consciousness. It has spent eons chasing the Traveler as part of its eternal pursuit to impose "salvation" upon all reality through the Final Shape, and along the way it has been responsible for the destruction of countless civilizations across the universe; either by its hand or through the actions of its Disciples and other servants. It mostly has some strange weird allure to the traveler, always wanting to get some sort of connection to it somehow.
