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.

Despite the loss of the Traveler, the Vanguard's forces still maintained their connection with the Light and reaffirmed their commitment to finding a way to follow the Witness and prevent it from achieving the Final Shape. In addition to defending Neomuna, the Vanguard dealt with a Shadow Legion invasion in the EDZ where Mara Sov answered the call for aid in combating them. Lending some of her powers to the Guardians and combining it with their Light, the Guardians are able to breach into the Pyramid outposts the Shadow Legion had been setting up and holding prisoners within. With their newly acquired power to traverse the Ascendant Plane, the Guardians managed to enter the Pyramid outposts and rescue the prisoners, including Amanda Holliday. However, weeks of combating the Shadow Legion and rescuing their captives would take a tragic turn as after the Guardians and their allies infiltrated the Shadow Legion's most fortified prison, Amanda was killed during the escape, crushing the Coalition leaders. Despite their grief, the Guardians and the Coalition refuse to allow their sadness to overwhelm them as it was something Amanda wouldn't want. Instead they honor her by continuing the fight that culminates in taking out the Shadow Legion's command ship in the EDZ. | Despite the loss of the Traveler, the Vanguard's forces still maintained their connection with the Light and reaffirmed their commitment to finding a way to follow the Witness and prevent it from achieving the Final Shape.

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]]. | |||
