| ===Arrival in the Last City===
| | During the early [[City Age]], Andal was among those who assisted in the Faction Accords.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/28/3)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[Age of Triumph]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Legends_%26_Mysteries#Ghost_Fragment:_Cayde-6|Ghost Fragment: Cayde-6]]''</ref> He eventually became the [[Hunter]] [[Vanguard]] and gained a seat on the [[Consensus]] during the conflict between the [[Speaker]] and Vanguard Commander [[Osiris]]. At a meeting of the Consensus, Andal was present when the Speaker announced that he was appointing [[Ikora Rey]] as the new [[Warlock]] Vanguard, was banishing Osiris from the [[Last City]], and named [[Zavala]] as the new Vanguard Commander.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/12)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Curse of Foresight]]''</ref> |

| Andal Brask was revived by one of the [[Ghost]]s following [[Micah-10]], and immediately afterwards journeyed to the [[Last City]] across the Pacific Ocean.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Ghost_Stories#Protector_of_Ghosts|Protector of Ghosts]]''</ref> According to tales told by Andal, he was met at the City gates by the [[Hunter]] [[Vanguard]] [[Tallulah Fairwind]], who told him that Micah had sent a message that Andal would be trouble, although he protested that his entire life up until then had just been drowning repeatedly in the ocean. She slapped him on the back so hard Andal died and had to be revived by his Ghost, but Tallulah acted like nothing had happened and pointed him towards a [[jumpship]] stolen by the [[House of Devils]] and decided to aid him in retrieving and taking it to the [[Ishtar Academy]] so the AI there could upgrade it. Andal, confused by everything that was happening, told her that he had no clue what she was talking about, but Tallulah told him to cheer up and that it was not like they were about to attack a [[Vex]] gate, at least not yet.<ref name="TTT"/> | |

| Andal formed a crew alongside [[Cayde-6]] and [[Shiro-4]], with other Hunters sometimes joining them on their jobs. Their missions included escorting survivors back to the Last City, mapping lost sites for technology and resources, and hunting down Fallen raiding parties.<ref name="Fold">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Fold|Fold]]''</ref> Andal and Cayde became close friends, and Brask often spun wild stories about his [[Exo]] counterpart - going as far as to claim Cayde was none other than the great [[Rasputin]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Allies/Rasputin#Ghost_Fragment:_Rasputin|Ghost Fragment: Rasputin]]''</ref> Eventually their actions against the Fallen resulted in a large bounty of [[Glimmer]] and [[Ether]] being put on their heads by the Fallen Houses.<ref name="Raise">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Raise|Raise]]''</ref>

| During a mission where Andal led a team of hunters to raid one supply cache while Cayde, Shiro, [[Nian Ruo]], and [[Lush]] hit another, Andal returned to their camp to find only Cayde, Shiro, and Lush present. He learned the other team had been ambushed by [[Taniks, the Scarred]], who was seeking to claim the bounty on their heads. The Fallen mercenary murdered Nian in the ambush and destroyed Lush's Ghost before they escaped.<ref name="Raise"/> Despite their loses, Andal and the others got cocky and decided to hunt down Taniks in revenge and kill him, although they told Lush he could not join them due to losing his Ghost and risking his final death. That night, Andal and Cayde stayed up late drinking and decided to make a Vanguard Dare, as the position of Hunter Vanguard had been empty for two years following [[Kauko Swiftriver]]'s disappearance. They decided that whoever failed to kill Taniks would have to become the new Hunter Vanguard while the winner would continue living the life of a free Hunter.<ref name="Turn">'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Turn|Turn]]''</ref>

| {{Quote|Oh good, this again. Better put your differences on ice, you two - we have an emergency, at Twilight Gap...|Andal, informing Zavala and Ana about a Fallen assault during one of their arguments}}
| |
| Andal lost his Dare with Cayde when his friend managed to hunt down and seemingly kill Taniks. Cayde attempted to talk him out of honoring the Dare due to the fact they had been intoxicated and their emotions over Nian's death, but Andal refused to dishonor the tradition of the Dare by backing out and causing every Hunter to doubt his word. A party was thrown in celebration of Andal becoming the new Hunter Vanguard, with even [[Osiris]], the [[Warlock]] Vanguard Commander, attending.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Winner_Take_All|Winner Take All]]''</ref>

| After joining the Vanguard, Andal conspired with Cayde and Shiro to loosen the restrictions placed upon Guardians by their commanders as they believed that hiding in the City would lead to humanity's ruin.<ref name="Fold"/> He would also leak information to them about upcoming Vanguard operations and the locations of enemy supply stashes so they would get first crack at the loot before delivering what they did not take to the Last City. However, over time Andal began seeing things from his fellow Vanguard's perspective and grew more serious about his role as Hunter Vanguard. This created a strain in his friendship with Cayde and Shiro, who thought that Andal was selling out to the Vanguard.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Man_They_Call_Cayde#Flop|Flop]]''</ref> Despite this, Andal was still looser with regulations than his fellow Vanguards, and turned a blind eye to the research being done by a [[Shadows of Yor|group]] of Guardians looking into [[Dredgen Yor]] and his fall to [[Darkness]], although Andal did not approve of the subject.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Lore]]: [[Lore:The_Book_of_Unmaking#VII:_Joining|VII: Joining]]''</ref>

| Andal received a report from Cayde-6 that the Kell of Kings was on the move. Lord Saladin questioned if he trusted Cayde, to which he replied that he trusted him with his life.<ref>'''[[Destiny: Fall of Osiris]] Vol. 1''', ''6''</ref>

| At a meeting of the Consensus, Andal was present when the [[Speaker]] announced that he was appointing [[Ikora Rey]] as the new [[Warlock]] Vanguard, was banishing Osiris from the Last City, and named [[Zavala]] as the new Vanguard Commander.<ref>'''Bungie (2017/9/12)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Curse of Osiris]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Curse of Foresight]]''</ref> Shortly thereafter, the Fallen launched an [[Battle of the Twilight Gap|assault]] upon the Last City from [[Twilight Gap]]. Andal discovered Zavala and Ana arguing over her research into her past and the [[Clovis Bray (corporation)|Clovis Bray corporation]] in the [[Tower]]'s courtyard and told them to stop arguing and assist in repealing the assault. Although the City was nearly overrun, the alliance of Fallen Houses was repelled at the cost of many Guardians. The casualties supposedly included Ana, but she in fact faked her death and went into hiding even from her former mentors like Andal in order to continue her research without Vanguard interference.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/6/22)''', ''[[Destiny: Warmind (comic)]]'', ''[https://comics.bungie.net/en/5/warmind-3 Chapter 3]'', ''Page 1-4''</ref>

| While on a mission, Andal was murdered by Taniks, who had in fact survived his encounter with Cayde.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/5/19)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[House of Wolves (expansion)|House of Wolves]] Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Fallen_Leadership#Taniks.2C_the_Scarred|Taniks, the Scarred]]''</ref> With Andal dead, Cayde reluctantly assumed the Vanguard post in memory of his fallen friend and in recognition of his own failure to kill Taniks,<ref name="Hunter"/> taking up Andal's cloak in his memory.<ref>[http://www.ishtar-collective.net/items/hardcase-cloak '''Ishtar Collective''' - ''Hardcase Cloak'']</ref><ref>'''Bungie (2018/12/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Black Armory]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [https://www.ishtar-collective.net/entries/vanguard-dare-cloak Vanguard Dare Cloak]''</ref><ref group=note>Cayde-6's Cloak resembles that of Andal's concept art seen in the article picture.</ref>
