Ryleo Goldridge: Meet The Guardians

One day, long ago, there existed only the Universe. The Universe was made up of unique and powerful energy, one incomprehensible to mankind. The Universe held so much potential, and yet It was in solitude, so the Universe decided to begin creating. Its first creation, the Universe called a “Realm”. The Realm seemed lonely, just like the Universe, so It decided to create more. Realm after Realm, the Universe created, each more grand than the last, but the more It made, the more corruption seemed to loom over Its creations.

Finally, the Universe decided that Its creation needed something to watch over it—something close—something to guide it and defend it from the corruption it faced. The Universe made a Realm to rule all Realms; He called it Goldridge. A beautiful Realm, rich in nature, which would prove to bless each foot which encountered its soil. The Universe had created plenty of creatures in Its time, but none more astonishing than those to inhabit Goldridge, of whom It called the Guardians.

Elwood - Advisor
Elwood is a Guardian who believes that words should be used efficiently and with careful intention; He tends to keep his thoughts to himself unless he views them as important and has processed them fully. He tries to keep from making emotionally-charged decisions in any given situation— some may initially see him as cold-hearted, but there is nothing more important to him than keeping people safe.As a Guardian, he is the anchor that keeps the team grounded and rational. He is often found in his study, seeking out solutions so he can plan and delegate accordingly. He enjoys taking walks early in the morning to clear his head.

Tozo - Peacekeeper
Tozo is a Guardian who walks each day in humility. He tries to remain optimistic even in the most troubled of circumstances and encourages others to do the same. Some would describe him as a tad naive, but he continues to look on in good faith and allows the Universe to guide his every step. His role as a Guardian is more personable than the others tend to be; He meditates often to keep in touch with the Universe, and manifests good fortune for all realms. He holds strong beliefs that what you put into the Universe is what you get in return. His favorite food is the chojo berry, which is Goldridge’s specialty fruit.

Amari - Protector
Amari is a Guardian who stays strong and loyal to what is important to her. Her exterior can be snarky and brash, but she has a soft spot for family— be it blood, or chosen. Her position as a Guardian is an important one, as she keeps watch over the realms and keeps them in check when corruption begins to arise. She enjoys venturing through the Goldridge caves and is very good at climbing, oftentimes using that skill to find new shortcuts to get through the caves faster. She likes to do things on her own accord, so being told what to do doesn’t sit right with her.

Ferris - Keeper
The Keeper, unlike other classes of Guardians, is not a position filled by seeking out a replacement, nor is there a test. Rather, it is a role passed down by bloodline for generations. Ferris Wright has lived in Goldridge since the day he was born, and since that day, he knew he would one day be heir to the Keeper title, holding the sole responsibility of maintaining the magic of the realm. He never did well under pressure, and would oftentimes be found hiding underneath tables and chairs, avoiding his lessons in pool-preservation. As he grew older, he managed to get through his lessons and took his place as the Keeper, even growing to enjoy it. He continues to struggle in unfamiliar situations, and tries to keep things as structured and scheduled as he can. His favorite phrase when things are going right is, “Like clockwork!”

Ryleo is a Hero born from the stars to protect the Universe from corruption! He is known for his curious nature and his adventurous spirit, both of which can oftentimes get him into troublesome situations. He was created to protect, and with the help of his trusty sword, he will stop at nothing to do just that!
