Who are the Titans?
The first Titans built the Wall and gave their lives to defend it. Now, you stand in the same high place, steadfast and sure, protecting all who shelter in your shadow. You hail from a long line of heroes, forged from strength and sacrifice. Our enemies may be deadly and merciless, but so are you.
The Titan is a Guardian class that specializes in armor. The first Titans built and defended The Wall that protects The City. Their heritage is rooted in strength, sacrifice, and mercilessness. Titans can be distinguished by their heavy, full-body armor and swept-back helmets. The Titan’s unique armor piece is a mark, a piece of cloth worn on the right hip intended to show their allegiance, lineage, or achievements.
Bungie stated that the Titan class is meant to be reminiscent of the classic “future soldier,” citing as influences Master Chief and the Terminator. Titans are the most heavily armored of the three classes, with gear inspired by medieval armor layered over tight-fitting rubber suits.
A subclass of Titans known as Sunbreakers left the City to find their own path. Due to a disagreement between them and the Vanguard, the Sunbreakers hate the Vanguard and Zavala in particular. Even though they left the Tower, you can still use the subclass in both Destiny games.
