The only encounter that the Guardians had with the Caretaker was in the [[Collection]] section of the Sunken Pyramid. The Caretaker is initially found at the top of a set of stairs, performing a ritual on a segment of the marble-like substance found throughout Pyramid-adjacent Throne World locations. When Guardians get into close proximity, the Caretaker looks over its shoulder to inspect the invaders, but quickly returns to its ritual. During this, it is completely immune to all interference, even passively damaging Guardians that get within extreme proximity to it and its ritual through an aura of malevolent energy. | The only encounter that the Guardians had with the Caretaker was in the [[Collection]] section of the Sunken Pyramid.

Once disturbed from its ritual by Guardians interacting with shard-like switches, the Caretaker shows the ability to teleport and begins vigorously defending the area it is confined within. | Once disturbed from its ritual by Guardians interacting with shard-like switches, the Caretaker shows the ability to teleport and begins vigorously defending the area it is confined within. After it is defeated by the Fireteam, the Caretaker keels over, and from its back begins sprouting the same tree-like branch systems that Rhulk and [[Emperor Calus|other]] [[Tormentor|servants]] of the [[Black Fleet]] exhibit upon death. The reason behind this is currently unknown. | ||
