Summary

  • A Destiny 2 player recreated the iconic creepypasta figure Slenderman using items from the Dungeons & Dragons crossover armor set.
  • The spooky outfit received praise on Reddit, with users excited to replicate the intimidating Guardian and scare their opponents in PvP.
  • The unique items needed for the set can be obtained through gameplay, or in the case of the D&D set, purchased through Destiny 2's in-game marketplace.

A Destiny 2 player has recreated an internet horror icon by making their Guardian look like the creepypasta character Slenderman using items from the game's Dungeons & Dragons crossover armor set. The character still has its usual Destiny 2 design schemes, of course, with its sci-fi armor details, but it does manage to include the character's trademark black tendrils coming out from his back.

Slenderman is a household name when it comes to internet culture, having first appeared in a creepypasta story over a decade and a half ago and becoming immensely popular thanks to a series of indie horror video games. Thanks to the new Dungeons & Dragons crossover that added a bunch of themed armor pieces and cosmetics to Destiny 2, the character's legacy has expanded once again to a game some fans may never have expected.

Reddit user Feckel shared their creation to the r/DestinyFashion subreddit, which is a dedicated community for Destiny 2 players to show off their Guardians' attire, with a screenshot of their character donning the spooky outfit. Even though Slenderman is normally seen wearing a suit and tie, items which Destiny 2 does not currently feature, the costume serves as an adaptation of the character that fits within the game's aesthetic.

Destiny 2's Newest Collaboration Made the Slenderman Costume Possible

Users in the comments quickly praised the outfit, with some even saying they would be scared to encounter the player in PvP since he is too intimidating to fight, and others simply want to make the outfit themselves. Luckily for them, the user's screenshot included the names of every item used to create the set, many of which come from the game's recent Dungeons & Dragons themed armor set that was released as an official collaboration with the RPG franchise.

The items required to make the set are as follows:

  • The Rat King's Crown (Spark of Joy Shader)
  • Streetwise Grips (Superblack Shader)
  • Insight Rover Vest (Superblack Shader)
  • Roboraptor Talons (Superblack Shader)
  • Spectral Displacer Cloak (Superblack Shader)

The Spectral Displacer Cloak and Rat King's Crown are both available in Destiny 2's in-game marketplace the Eververse as part of its limited-time D&D crossover for purchase with Glimmer, the game's premium currency. The rest are attainable through gameplay by various means, with some being dropped after playing one of the game's many raids or eliminating specific enemies and can likely be interchanged with similar items.

The D&D crossover rolled out in the midst of Destiny 2' s The Final Shape expansion, which released earlier this month and brought a ton of new content to the game, including all-new subclasses and endgame raids. It also serves as the ultimate finale to the series' ongoing saga, but developer Bungie has confirmed that it will not mark the end of the game, as new content and continued support is still planned for the future.
