Nope! It's just a signifier of what path you took in that quest. It shows up as a badge on your Profile, you can see those badges on other peoples' profile as well. EDIT: Now do Saya's Vigil on Cetus and then talk to Quill Onkko. You'll get your first Operator Amp which makes your Starchild much more useful, Amps act as separate energy pools for your Starchild's attack, so it doesn't consume energy you'd use for Void Mode/Dash or Void Blast. Even the Amp you get for free is a vast improvement over not having an Amp at all. You'll need to have done at least 1 Bounty from Konzu before you can start it, and upon completion will give you the BP for Gara. Then you can pretty much do as you like. The Quills faction will help you get new Amps, but you need to get Sentient Cores to trade in for standing with them. But just having the Mote Amp will make fighting against Sentients and the Shadow Stalker a breeze. Simply getting the Mote Amp is the most important part of finishing War Within because otherwise fighting with Starchild is a pain in the ass due to energy management.
