"Let's see what we've got!"
— The Drifter

Biography

The Drifter is a relatively mysterious wanderer that appeared a year after the Red War, riding in a gigantic asteroid-carrying ship. He began to host Gambit, an unsanctioned spin-off of the Crucible for Guardians, where they compete against both themselves and alien enemies. He appears to be a Darkness-worshipper, based off of comments made by him during Gambit matches.
