Sparrow



The Sparrow is a single-occupant vehicle used by Guardians, primarily for fast travel across long distances within a playable zone. Each Guardian is issued such a vehicle, which is stored aboard their personal spaceship and can be summoned for use as needed. Its stats can be improved within the game.

New Sparrows can be acuired from a few places; sometimes they appear as Loot (for example, finding all five Gold Chests in Old Russia will yield an uncommon sparrow), or purchased from a vendor, such as the Shipwright, Crucible Quartermaster, or Vanguard Quartermaster.

Trivia

 * In terms of overall design and function, the Sparrow bears a striking resemblance to speeder bikes from the Star Wars franchise.
 * Its design resembles that of the Shrike.
 * Those who pre-ordered Destiny from Gamestop received a red Sparrow S-10V, with buffs to its boost, speed, and durability (though its stats can be matched through in-game upgrades). The color remained a pre-order exclusive until January 1, 2015.
