"You are a Vandal. You slip through life like a thief. Trying to hide from everything greater than you — lest you be reduced, again, to a dreg. You have been taken. [...] You have no space to call your own. You deserve a place of safety. You deserve to be alone with yourself. There is a knife for you. It is shaped like [this place is mine]. Take up the knife. Make it your companion. Take your new shape"

— Grimoire description

The Taken Vandal is a type of Taken Fallen that summons a spherical shield similar to Ward of Dawn. This shield heals enemies inside and allows them to shoot out but not in. Their weapons consist of either a Solar Wire Rifle or an Arc Shrapnel Launcher. Taken Vandals are unusually accurate with their Wire Rifles.
