History of The Derelict

The '''Derelict''' is the Drifter's personal ship and mobile base of operations, introduced in the Forsaken expansion (September 2018). It is the assembly point where Guardians gather before being transmatted into Gambit matches.

Overview

The Derelict tows a massive globular object called the '''Haul''', far larger than the ship itself. The Drifter says he recovered it from an extremely cold place beyond known space; he later revealed it was a gift from The Nine via their Emissary, Orin. The ship also holds sealed storage areas with egregore samples the Drifter collected for years before the Vanguard knew of them, and Eris Morn has remarked that it hides unexplored wonders.

Getting there

The Derelict is a social/launch space reached through the Drifter's Gambit playlist rather than as a patrol destination. It has been sighted in various skies, including over Titan.

Activities

• Gambit matchmaking, played on maps such as Deep Six and New Arcadia.
• Vendor: the Drifter (see Drifter).

Not to be confused with

The Derelict Leviathan, the ruined remains of Calus's ship, is a different location.
