The Guardian

Alongside The Oracle and The Sovereign, The Guardian helps make up the mysterious and powerful group known as The Triumvirate. The Guardian is perhaps the most ambiguous of the trio, having the strangest set of powers, which seem entirely unique to her. Veiled in a white cloak, while surrounded by runes that appear to have been drawn by the stars themselves, no one, other than the members of The Triumvirate, know what she actually is, assuming her to be some kind of average sized humanoid, given her stature. Despite her distinct clothing, her phantom like appearance at a distance has caused her to be very difficult to recognise, leading many to question if she was ever involved in the many catastrophes that she has managed to prevent.

Personal history

What is known about The Guardian

Much like her compatriots, almost nothing is known about her past, other than what her leader, The Oracle has said on her behalf. According to The Oracle, The Guardian was once a member of The Obsidian Council, being one of the twelve chosen by Filodoxia, The Ascended to face the horrors of the world. It isn't known; however, which of the twelve members The Guardian was, as The Oracle states that her two companions actually passed away, clearly not being one of the known members that have survived to the Age of Exodus.   Alongside The Oracle and The Sovereign, The Guardian appeared after the chaos of The Divine Exodus to aid in dealing with the many undead that appeared in the Kingdom of Salardia, returning the undead that were brought back as a result of the Exodus. After the Exodus, there have been a few apparent sightings of The Guardian, but they have been few and far in between, with even fewer being confirmed.  

Theories Surrounding The Guardian

Given that The Guardian was not one of the more famed members of The Obsidian Council, such as the children of Pyra, the First Dragon and Filodoxia, The Ascended, it is unknown who or what The Guardian actually is. It is clear that they would have had enough power to attract the attention of the Council's founding members, being relative to them in strength. Some have theorised that she could be a demi-god, like some of her former council members, or be the spawn of a Harbinger or Sentinel. Unfortunately, her inability to speak means that she is unable to lend any credence to these theories.
