H.E.L.M.

The H.E.L.M. or Hub for Emergency Logistics and Maneuvers is a Vanguard operations outpost set up on a large ship, originally docked within a hangar of The Last City.

It was initially staffed by Vanguard Frames and opened shortly after the Arrival of the Black Fleet. It first came into operation to deal with the arrival of Empress Caiatl's fleet in the Sol System.

War Table


The centerpiece of the H.E.L.M., the war table offers real-time tactical information on the current conflict the Vanguard is monitoring. A terminal on the table can be used to read messages and receive incoming transmissions from Vanguard agents for briefings and reports from the field. Members of Vanguard task forces frequently meet at the war table to discuss ongoing operations.

Umbral Decoder
Confiscated from Drifter by the Cryptarchy, the Umbral Decoder and Prismatic Recaster have been refined and studied by the Cryptarchs in their ongoing effort to further understand Umbral Engrams which began to appear after the Black Fleet arrived.

Other Features
The H.E.L.M. has a post box for items lost in the field for recovery, along with a terminal for accessing a Guardian's Vault. Additionally, a terminal containing intercepted messages and Vanguard reports during the Clash of the Chosen is located near the post box.

Wings
On the left and right of where the Guardian(s) spawn are two separate rooms used for other operations.


 * The Eliksni Wing was the main operational hub for the House of Light located within the left wing of the H.E.L.M. It prominently housed the Splicer Servitor which was modified to supply Ether to their encampment.
 * The Awoken Wing was the main operational hub for the Reefborn Awoken within the H.E.L.M. It prominently housed the Wayfinder's Compass, a portal to Mara Sov's chambers and was guarded by a number of Corsairs.
 * The Psiorium Wing, located at the back entrance next to Crow, was a former containment unit for captured Lucent Brood lieutenants. It was shut down after the success of Operation Elbrus in stopping the Scarlet Keep from being captured by the Lucent Hive for an invasion of Earth.
 * The Crown of Sorrow Quarantine Wing took the place of the Eliksni Wing during Operation Midas. The area is outfitted with heavy quarantine equipment, a decontamination unit at the entrance with two Imperial Guard Legionaries right outside and a Hive Tombship used to transport the Crown, as well as to eject it from the H.E.L.M in case it grew to dangerous. Egregore would also be found around the Crown that continued to grow as the Guardians continued severing powerful Nightmares, even spreading to the main area of the H.E.L.M.
