Sometime after the end of the Red War, Failsafe reported to the Guardian that she occasionally hears the voice of Captain Masoud Jacobson on the comm system. At her request, the Guardian began investigating, and to the surprise of Ghost, managed to uncover the remains of Exodus Black crew members, still in their suits. These suits contained recordings of events long past, and eventually they found a recording of Captain Jacobson declaring his intent to leave the Exodus Black to use the satellite array. With this information, the Guardian retraced his path to a computer console in the [[Glade of Echoes]], which was still attempting to transmit a mayday signal from Captain Jacobson. The message playback was interrupted by a Vex transmission that Failsafe recognized as a greeting and/or a war cry. Vex units began to appear, accompanied by [[Empathic Sentinel]]s carrying memory data. The Guardian collected this data for Ghost to analyze, and discovered that the Vex believed Captain Jacobson was coming to meet them. This brought their attention to a strange [[Harpy]], which they pursued at the insistence of Failsafe.<ref name="O Captain"/> | Sometime after the end of the Red War, Failsafe reported to the Guardian that she occasionally hears the voice of Captain Masoud Jacobson on the comm system.

A year following the Red War, Failsafe received word of the death of Cayde-6 at the hands of [[Uldren Sov]] during a mission at the [[Prison of Elders]] in the [[Reef]]. The next time the Guardian visited Nessus, Failsafe offered them her emotional support. She also expressed that she believed grief became easier to manage the more one experiences loss, as in the loss of her own crew, but that Cayde's death disproved that theory.<ref>'''Bungie (2018/9/4)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Forsaken]], Playstation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Last Call]]''</ref> Following Uldren's death, she stated that the news did not ease her grief over the loss of Cayde. | At some point Failsafe befriended the [[Ghost]] later known as [[Glint]], who visited regularly.<ref name="TOTF1">'''Bungie (2021/9/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Tales_of_the_Forgotten#Nessus_-_1|Tales of the Forgotten: Nessus - 1]]''</ref> | ||

A little over another year later after the discovery of a [[Pyramid (Luna)|Pyramid]] on the [[Moon]], the Guardian visited Failsafe on the behalf of the recently reemerged [[Saint-14]], who sought a way to honor the colonists lost aboard the Exodus Black. Failsafe suggested that regular patrol duties on the planetoid would be sufficient to honor their memory.<ref>'''Bungie (2019/12/10)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of Dawn]], Playstation 4, [[Honoring the Lost]]''</ref> | A little over another year later after the discovery of a [[Pyramid (Luna)|Pyramid]] on the [[Moon]], the Guardian visited Failsafe on the behalf of the recently reemerged [[Saint-14]], who sought a way to honor the colonists lost aboard the Exodus Black.

==Personality and | Two years after his last visit, during the [[Festival of the Lost]], Glint returned to Failsafe to enlist her aid in researching the [[Headless One]]s. After begrudgingly commenting that she'd discovered the emotion of betrayal specifically because of Glint, she let him on board to discuss the matter.<ref name="TOTF1"/> She explained that she'd detected them in the nearby [[The Rift|ruins]] for centuries but not very often, and suggested they play checkers before Glint continued his investigation.<ref name="TOTF2">'''Bungie (2021/9/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Tales_of_the_Forgotten#Nessus_-_4|Tales of the Forgotten: Nessus - 4]]''</ref> Glint won, prompting Failsafe to "accidentally" explode their holographic board and offer to reveal the [[Nokris, Supplicant to Savathûn|origins]] of the Headless Ones the next time Glint returned, proclaiming it to be an incentive.<ref name="TOTF3">'''Bungie (2021/9/24)''', ''[[Destiny 2]]: [[Season of the Lost]] - [[Lore]]: [[Lore:Tales_of_the_Forgotten#Nessus_-_7|Tales of the Forgotten: Nessus - 7]]''</ref> | ||

At first glance, Failsafe may appear to have a simple personality, either being extremely happy or extremely depressed. While she may have had a comparable cheery personality early in her life, listening to the content of Failsafe's speech reveals she is perfectly capable of experiencing a wider range of emotions, including anger and grief. | At first glance, Failsafe may appear to have a simple personality, either being extremely happy or extremely depressed.
