There will never be a redemption arc for Uldren. (Destiny)

Uldren is dead. The Guardian that inhabits his corpse is a completely different person. Sure, his perspective is shaped by the way people treat him (and it's clearly not a positive experience), but this Lore piece highlights his character, as someone who is inherently good, who cares about his Ghost's feelings, and who wants to do something nice.

I dunno man. It's a story we've seen many times. The kind/weak character who wants to be a hero but is outcast and shunned. Then finds open arms with a wolf in sheep's clothing. Before he even realizes it, he has everything he ever wanted. Acceptance, power, authority, respect...just on the wrong side of the battle.

He then goes down a self destructive path of resentment, confusion and identity crisis.

Isn't that literally what happened? He was always second fiddle to Mara, was generally disliked by his grumpy disposition, goes on a quest when Mara is gone, is tricked by Riven/Savathun, becomes king of the Scorched, then pays for those crimes.
