Biography
Early Life
- "But non-Guardians aren't supposed to leave the City!"
"Here's the thing about City rules – they stop applying once you leave the City." - — The Ghost and Hawthorne
Living in The Last City made Hawthorne uneasy, as she felt trapped within the confines of the Walls and the City's rules. She left the City as soon as she could, and spent more than half her life outside of the Walls surviving on her own or with small groups.[4] Hawthorne explored much of the European Dead Zone, although she kept her distance from the Shard of the Traveler.[5]
The Red War
Rallying in the EDZ
While gathering supplies to take the Last City, she learned that it was under attack by the Cabal's Red Legion. Abandoning the supplies, Hawthorne flew across the ocean to help, but the City had fallen.[6] Hawthorne began aiding survivors as they fled from the City and rallied them at the Farm in the European Dead Zone. One week after the fall of the City, Hawthorne was aiding survivors outside of Twilight Gap when she saw a Lightless Guardian fall from a nearby cliff. She went over and aided The Young Wolf back onto their feet, but a distant explosion cut their introductions short. Hawthorne ordered her people to get ready to move. The Guardian's Ghost questioned where they were going, and Hawthorne told them as far from the City as possible. Louis then swooped in and landed on her arm, and she introduced herself and Louis to the Guardian. She questioned if they were fit to fly and handed them her shotgun before remarking that it was time for the Guardian to make themselves useful. Hawthorne ordered her people to leave and prepare for the long flight home. As their ships reached the Farm, Hawthorne welcomed the Young Wolf to their new home, but the Guardian was more interested in the Shard of the Traveler they saw in the distance, which Hawthorne warned them was dangerous.[4]
The number of refugees at the Farm made Suraya nervous, as she was used to living alone or with few people around. She met with the Young Wolf and informed them she would not stop them from investigating the Shard as she had too many other issues to deal with, but did offer to let them take a ship to reach the Shard faster and return quicker.[4] When the Young Wolf reached the quarantine area, she contacted them and inquired if they were sure it was a good idea, as the Shard's corruption was what had turned the region into a Dead Zone.

Personality and Traits
- "Are you sure you're not one of my Hunters?"
"Not really into capes."
"Clearly. Nice poncho." - — Cayde-6 and Hawthorne[1]
Hawthorne is a woman with medium tan skin, sporting a circular pattern of dots atop her face. She is shown to be very ambitious, earned through years of surviving on her own without the Light, able to stand her ground against the Cabal. She has a companion falcon named Louis.[1]
Suraya possess a conflicted view of the Last City and the Guardians; while she respects the Guardians for their abilities and their priority of defending people, she finds the City and its walls to be equivalent of a prison as she has enjoyed the open freedom of the wild. While she aided the survivors of the Last City and the crippled Guardians, she was originally against the idea of reclaiming the City or even going against enemy forces, preferring to protect those at the Farm.
Despite this mindset, Suraya aided the Vanguard in their efforts in reclaiming the Last City, becoming instrumental in getting their forces through the Wall undetected. She saved Commander Zavala from death at the hands of a Red Legion Legionary, who showed his gratitude by officially calling her a Guardian. From then on, Suraya took residence at the new Tower, learning about the Last City and its history while overseeing missions in the European Dead Zone, as well as moderating the newly established Guardian Clans.
Gameplay
Hawthorne gives players their Clan banner as soon as they join a clan, which tracks their clan progress per season. As soon as a clan completes a challenge together, she rewards all members with legendary engrams.
