Destiny 2contains a lot of lore. From the mysteries of the Vex to thesomber story of Eris Morn, the game features many strange places with sometimes even more unusual people. While journeying across these worlds, one intriguing character that players are likely to encounter is Ada-1.
Originally a human at birth, Ada-1 was the victim of the Collapse. Fatally wounded while still a child, her mother was forced to transfer her consciousness into an Exo frame. While this saved her life, it also meant she lost her human body. DuringDestiny 2,Ada-1 worked as a gunsmithalong with being the head of the Black Armory. Recently, one fan decided to imagine what Ada-1 might look like as a human.
