Polaris Lance

Template:Infobox/Weapon

I've forgotten so much of my past life, of my family. But when I hold this rifle, everything feels right. I feel like… I'm home.

― Ana Bray

Polaris Lance is an exotic Scout Rifle introduced in the Warmind expansion. Polaris Lance can be dismantled to generate Glimmer, Gunsmith Materials, and Legendary Shards.

Lore

This item has the following lore associated:

“

Most people wouldn't consider a broken weapon a birthday present. But the Brays… aren't like most people. Sure, they tell me I'm smart, but they have a closeness, a relationship to the tools and machines they work with that goes beyond words. I never thought they would trust me enough to be a part of that. Until today. Elsie knows I've been working in the lab, trying to perfect the scout rifle designs in secret. I thought she'd be angry, that a weapon like this was a Bray project, not something for her adopted little sister. But this morning she surprised me. She handed me the weapon, a smile on her face. She told me she had checked it over, but only I could finish it. A real piece of Bray tech. And it's mine. I finally feel like I've found my place. The Brays are more than just scientists. They're my family.
