Uldren Sov is a character from Bungie's Destiny video game series. He first appears as a supporting non-player character in the 2014 video game Destiny. In series lore, he served as a loyal aide to his sister Queen Mara Sov and is a prince of the Awoken, originally humans whose biology were altered as the result of an otherworldly spacetime anomaly which occurred hundreds of years before the events of the Destiny series. Uldren was the main antagonist of Forsaken, the 2017 expansion pack to Destiny 2. He is later resurrected in a subsequent story update and reintroduced in post-release seasonal content as the Crow, an ally to the player character.
Uldren Sov is voiced by Brandon O'Neill, who also portrayed the character through performance capture. O'Neill was chosen based on his portrayal of the character's original pitch as a character archetype patterned after Star Wars's Han Solo. The character has been described by critics as one of the most engaging aspects of the Destiny video game series' ongoing narrative, in particular its exploration of his new identity as a redemption story arc, which is a departure from his consistent depiction as an antagonistic personality throughout the Destiny series.
