'''Seeder Ships''', also known as '''Seeders''', are [[Hive]] spacecraft used to both colonize a world with Hive lifeforms, and to insert Hive warriors into a designated location. Typically, where a Seeder has landed, a group of Hive have entrenched themselves, and the strange crystals and barnacle-like formations that signal a Hive presence have begun to spread.

==Overview==
==History==
According to [[Ghost]], the Hive have been using these ships to seed [[Earth]] for "centuries".<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[The World's Grave (mission)]]''</ref> The [[Crucible]] map [[Rusted Lands]] is the location where [[Guardian]]s first learned of the Hive's incursion.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible_Arenas#The_Rusted_Lands|The Rusted Lands]]''</ref>
The earliest documented use of Seeders can be traced back to when [[Oryx, the Taken King]] deployed them in his siege against the [[Gift Mast]]. Oryx commanded his broods to secretly colonise on the rubbles of a nearby black hole accretion disc and then hurtled the comets onto the worlds of the [[Harmony]] race. Seeders were then used to infiltrate the Harmony worlds and allowed his broods and [[Court of Oryx|court]] to grow in strength and successfully topple the Gift Mast.<ref>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]] PlayStation 4, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#XLVI:_The_Gift_Mast|XLVI: The Gift Mast]]''</ref>


At least three Seeder Ships can be found in the [[Cosmodrome]]: one has crashed in the [[Refinery]], another into the [[Jovian Complex]], and a third at the coastal entrance to [[The Grottos]]. On the [[Moon]], a Seeder Ship preparing for launch can be found in the [[Temple of Crota]].<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Chamber of Night (mission)]]''</ref>
During the early [[Golden Age]] of [[Humanity]], [[Crota, Son of Oryx]] sought to destroy the [[Traveler]] and its [[Light]] and led a Hive contingent to the [[Moon]]. They quickly hollowed out the Moon to create a massive underground fortress known as the [[Hellmouth]] and built a Seeder Ship launch base within the [[Temple of Crota]].
 
From this staging ground, the Hive sent Seeder Ships to [[Earth]] with the intention of colonising the planet and first deployed their ships in the [[Eastern Flood Zone]]. The Hive terrorised the local population and forced the gaunt survivors to refuge within the ruins and beg for protection to a fireteam of [[Guardians]]. The fireteam discovered the Seeder Ships at the [[Rusted Lands]] and clashed against a [[Wizard]] and her [[Knights]] at night. Only one surviving [[Hunter]] returned to warn the [[Last City]] of the first Hive invasion of Earth.<ref>'''Bungie (2014/9/9)''', ''[[Destiny]]: PlayStation 4, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire:Activities/Crucible_Arenas#The_Rusted_Lands|The Rusted Lands]]''</ref>
