[quote]Detailed answers would be appreciated thank you 1. How old is Zavala and is he the founder of the last city? 2. Is Zavala the only titan vanguard or has there been others? 3. Same for Ikora and Cayde has there been other vanguards before them? 4. How does one become a vanguard and will a new hunter vanguard be appointed?[/quote] Zavala is at least older than Cayde. He’s been in the city since it was but camps. Likely more than 150yrs. and no. He didn’t found it. No. Zavala is the second Titan Vanguard. Saint-14 held it for a time but dropped the gig shortly before Osiris was exiled and Zavala was appointed Vanguard Commander. Yes. Osiris was Ikora’s predecessor and as for Cayde...well Andal Brask was before him and then the list of “before that” goes on and on. At least 10 hunter vanguards. Just wait for KS to comment on this post and he will probably give a list. Vanguard for Warlock and Titan seems to be appointed whereas Hunter is based on a Dare which is at the moment inconclusive in finding Cayde’s replacement [spoiler]as of Season of the Hunt it seems The Crow might be out of the picture. [/spoiler]

1. No, in his story trailer he’s shown arriving to the beginning of the Last City after others like Shaxx and the speaker.

Saint-14 was offered the spot, but got h•rny for killing Fallen so he did that instead. 3. There’s an entire lore thing about how Cayde became Hunter Vanguard. Read “The Man They Called Cayde” lore book, page “Flop”. Osiris was the Warlock vanguard before Ikora, until he was exiled for spreading conspiracy theories about chemicals in the water turning the Fallen gay. 4. I think there’s like a lore quiz that was occasionally held... wait you’re talking about in the game’s universe. In the lore no hunter wants the position so they’re no showing at the tower. Being “trapped” as the Hunter vanguard is considered shameful, as it means no more exploring, doing dumb things on sparrows, bunny hoping around in the crucible, re-enacting classic westerns, staying up all night drinking, terrorizing Fallen, and being a bunch of overgrown teenagers. In fact they are teenagers, because this situation can be described as, Mom (Zavala) wants them to grow up and take up more responsibility, and they want to party with their friends more. So far the method of going on top of a high building with a shiny handcannon attached to a fishing rod, while a few titans wait with a net, so we can find someone to do it, has been unsuccessful. There was one who almost did, but he just pawed at it before hissing and scampering away. You know, normal hunter behavior.
