The '''Vanguard''' are elite [[Guardian]]s who coordinate the [[Last City]]'s defenses, organize assaults on enemy strongholds and assassinations of their leaders, and mentor newly-risen Guardians. Some Guardians work directly for the Vanguard as scouts, investigating potential threats to the City far afield. | The '''Vanguard''' are elite [[Guardian]]s who coordinate the [[Last City]]'s defenses, organize assaults on enemy strongholds and assassinations of their leaders, and mentor newly-risen Guardians.

Though Ikora had her Hidden search through Neptune to find the city Osiris spoke of, they found nothing, leading the Warlock Vanguard to think that Osiris may still be compromised due being possessed by the Witch Queen. Angered, Osiris approached Ana to see if she made any progress in repairing [[Rasputin]] but unfortunately, she hadn't. Desperate for answers that the Warmind may possess, Osiris suggests that they seek out [[Clovis Bray I]], one of the Warmind's chief creators, but Ana vehemently objects, citing her grandfather's amoral nature but relents due to Rasputin's deteriorating condition. After saving the Bray patriarch from the Wrathborn, who have reemerged and gained partial control over the Warmind's security systems, Clovis agrees to aid in restoring Rasputin but for the selfish desire to ensure his legacy and self-preservation. The Guardians were instructed to gather Rasputin's subminds and reintegrate them into Rasputin's core, working hastily before Xivu Arath and her Wrathborn corrupt the Warsat Network and turn its arsenal against the Last City. However, after restoring enough of the Warmind, Rasputin informs the Guardians of Clovis Bray's true intentions: he intended to use Rasputin to upload himself into Seraph Station, the main hub of the network, assume control over the Warmind's arsenal and replace the Traveler as Clovis couldn't see anyone other than himself in being humanity's savior. Furious, Ana and her sister [[Elsie Bray]], confront Clovis and cast him out, allowing the Guardians to continue in their mission without fear of Clovis's interference. | Though Ikora had her Hidden search through Neptune to find the city Osiris spoke of, they found nothing, leading the Warlock Vanguard to think that Osiris may still be compromised due being possessed by the Witch Queen.

The Vanguard would later set up a meeting with the other Coalition leaders, Zavala, Mithrax and Empress Caiatl, after Mara Sov gathered evidence on what may be Xivu Arath's true end goal: the War God wants the Guardians to restore the Warmind and allow him to smite her Wrathborn forces. The resulting destruction would not only feed her worm but it would fuel a spell powerful enough to open a portal over Earth and summon her armies to overwhelm humanity, just as she had accomplished on [[Torobatl]]. As such, Mara Sov believes that to prevent Xivu Arath's plan from coming to fruition, they must not restore Rasputin. Ana Bray, however, enters the meeting and voices her objections, citing that Rasputin is more than a weapon and points out that they need him to survive the Witness's return. Mara Sov compromises by proposing that instead of a victory over Xivu Arath, they create a stalemate with her by restoring the Warmind as Ana wants but | The Vanguard would later set up a meeting with the other Coalition leaders, Zavala, Mithrax and Empress Caiatl, after Mara Sov gathered evidence on what may be Xivu Arath's true end goal: the War God wants the Guardians to restore the Warmind and allow him to smite her Wrathborn forces.

Zavala and the others agree to the plan, having the Guardians continue in their mission in collecting submind data. | ||

Since then | Due to the nature of Hunters who enjoy venturing the wild, the position of filling the Vanguard role has proven difficult for the [[Last City]] as no Hunter wants to be stuck in the [[Tower]] doing Vanguard duties. Since then the Vanguard has allowed Hunters to come to an agreement between themselves into electing an official and this can be contested as a gamble in which the loser must concede to filling the Vanguard role. | ||
Currently, the Hunter Vanguard position is vacant as no Hunter wants to fill the role leading to many Hunters that could fill the role to flee the city for important "Assignments". They have since been spiritually represented by [[Colonel]] who occupies the space of the fallen [[Cayde-6]] and has since been christened "Pigeon Lord" by [[Saint-14]]. | |||
