Galaxy Slayer Zed's lore speculations

What I got from Zed's interactions is that he used to be a Templar who went against the rules of the order, consumed ora and was ultimately corrupted by it; he now seeks to build a world without conflict by making everyone become either one with the ora or... dead.

There's still something I don't understand tho: why does he feel the urge to kill the Cosmic bros and why do they want him dead? Was the ora he consumed somehow contaminated by Rhaast? GS Zed doesn't seem to even know what the Dark Stars are, so I would be inclined to rule it out.

What are your thoughts on this? My theory is that consuming large amounts of ora causes an individual to attune with all the other living beings infused with the golden substance, which leads them to lose their individuality and consequentially their sanity, turning them in schizophrenic serial killers. Thus GS Zed is a potential double threat to the galaxy: not only he's directly harmful to every living being, but he also could be used as an ora battery by Odyssey Kayn/Rhaast in order to open up a portal to the Dark Star/Cosmic universe.

Idk what the lore is but your assumption is very good and I would most likely believe that but I think GS zed deserves a lore which also connects him with the od crew and Kayn I wanna see how this story is so I really hope that they will release a lore on him

I feel like his suit is like a symbyotic being (similar to Venom from Marvel), because he keeps reffering to himself as "we". also one of his voice lines is "we... are .. Zed." which imo HAS to be a refference to the iconic line by venom.
