Which Destiny character voiced by Nathan Fillion is the Hunter Vanguard? The answer is Cayde-6.
Cayde-6 is an Exo Guardian and one of Destiny’s three Vanguard leaders. As Hunter Vanguard, he represents the Hunter class in the Tower, alongside Commander Zavala, the Titan Vanguard, and Ikora Rey, the Warlock Vanguard. His wisecracking personality and fondness for gambling made him one of the series’ most recognizable characters.
Nathan Fillion voiced Cayde for most of his appearances, beginning with Destiny and continuing through Destiny 2. A common mix-up comes from Forsaken, where Nolan North performed Cayde’s dialogue because Fillion did not reprise the role for that expansion. Fillion later returned for The Final Shape.
Cayde’s story also distinguishes him from the other options: Lord Shaxx is the Crucible handler, Zavala is the Titan Vanguard, and Ikora is the Warlock Vanguard. Cayde is killed during Forsaken, making the Hunter Vanguard role especially significant to the series’ ongoing story.
