...Oh, I'm sorry, I was just busy thinking about something more important.

"Quotes are cliche!" -Meh

So I started another play-through of ODST yesterday (because it is awesome) and found an interesting possibility. I'm not sure if someone else has publicly discussed this but when I was going through the streets I found this now popular advertisement hinting at Destiny and Dead Orbit, I noticed something I'd missed before, and that's Asklon.

Now I had never seen this company in previous Halo's unlike Traxus, so my curiosity got to me and I started wondering, "could this be an asset for Destiny?" As we all know, ODST is riddled with hints at Destiny, so why should this be any different. I looked into it and apparently Asklon is a "German Automotive Industry" that only appears in ODST. Now whether or not Bungie or Microsoft owns the rights to Asklon since its in a Halo product, I don't know, but for now lets think of ways Asklon could be incorporated into Destiny.

Now since Asklon is a vehicle manufacturer, I think it may be possible for them to be suppliers for the different factions - seeing as how they don't sound like straight up government military and more like militia - for all their land, air, sea, and most likely space transportation needs. Having multiple factions wanting exclusivity to one supplier sounds like a cool idea to me.

Now this is just speculation on an extreme level, but it sounds like a cool possibility and we all know how fun it is to speculate about Destiny. Any thoughts?

Interesting find. I definitely wouldn't rule out the possibility of this appearing in Destiny.

this was in one of those older posts like a year ago. It is a cool find but if you search the forum about destiny it will show up. itls always nice to see things that make us happy though :)

Sounds like a long shot to me. The License Plate was a cool easter egg, but this sounds way too obscure to be believeable.

Many of the License Plates in ODST were reference to either Spartan 2s or the Spartan 3s of Noble Team.
