Get away from me! I'll deal with the beasts myself! This will show them! They'll never call me a rookie again!
― Drifter

Drifter (ru. Бродяга) is a young rookie stalker appearing in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Clear Sky.

Background[]

Drifter is a nervous and hotheaded rookie who can't accept his status. He decided to prove to everyone that he is capable of much, takes his gun and goes to kill a pack of blind dogs. When Wolf learns of this, he asks Scar to help the rookie. If Scar agrees and saves Drifter, he will take him to the rookie village, otherwise the stalker will face an imminent death.

Appearances[]

Clear Sky[]

Wolf, concerned about him, sends Scar off to rescue him from a pack of blind dogs. It is best if the dogs are killed as quickly as possible, as they will soon overwhelm and kill Drifter, resulting in a failed mission. Occasionally the last 1-2 dogs will run off at some distance, distracting the player from the mission to protect and escort Drifter. Despite him wearing a Sunrise suit, he only uses a PMm pistol. Wolf will give 750 RU for successfully rescuing and escorting him back to the rookie village. If the player lets Drifter get too far ahead when escorting him back to the village the mission will fail. A PMm pistol and 50 rounds of 9x18mm ammunition can be found on Drifter's body after he dies when back in the village.
