'''The Caretaker''' is a massive [[Scorn]] [[Abomination]] residing within [[the Sunken Pyramid]] in the [[Court of Savathûn]]. Empowered by [[Darkness]]-based technology from the [[Pyramid]], it was originally stationed within it, presumably to look after the artifacts and statues contained within, before it was slain by a [[Guardian]] Raid [[Fireteam]] who entered the vessel.

The Caretaker exhibits the ability to fire bolts of ether, much like a regular Abomination, though these are infused with what appears to be the same Darkness energy that Rhulk utilises. It can also perform ground slams to knock back and damage any opponents that are close-by. There is also an automated defense system on its back, appearing like a small coffin. This constantly releases drone-like Pyramid Scales that course around the room, and will begin aggressively homing onto and damaging nearby targets, inflicting Pervading Darkess upon them.

Throughout its encounter with the Guardians, its main objective appears to be to move towards the obelisk on each floor of Collection, so it can trigger a massive expulsion of energy to the surrounding area, killing all targets. It can only be stopped in its tracks by damaging its face, which then opens the coffin-like object on its back, allowing Guardians to shoot its contents to temporarily stun The Caretaker. After recovering from this stun, The Caretaker will continue to plod towards the obelisk, its face becoming vulnerable again after a few seconds. To its discredit, the Caretaker will face and fixate on the Guardian standing closest to it, allowing for its face to be easily shot by this Guardian, and to allow positioning of its back for easy stuns for other members of the Fireteam.
