Thorn

"To rend one's enemies is to see them not as equals, but objects - hollow of spirit and meaning."

Thorn is a Grimoire card from the original Destiny (Destiny 1), found under Inventory → Primary Weapons. Grimoire cards held most of the game's lore and were read on Bungie.net and in the companion app, not in the game itself.

Card text

Augmented through dark practices, Thorn was once a hero's weapon. Its jagged frame hints at a sinister truth: a powerful connection to the unutterable sorceries of the Hive.

The legend of Thorn is bound to the rise and fall of Dredgen Yor, a Guardian whose name is remembered with disgust and shame. The weapon was thought destroyed...but rumors of its existence still haunt the wilds.

Grimoire text written by Bungie, shown as it appears in the Destiny 1 game files.
