''A Paladin Variant.''
A master of defense. A White Guardian is a seeker of lost treasures, epic battles, and high adventure. They turn adversity into opportunity by finding new ways to apply their skills, discovering new techniques to solve problems, and challenging the status-quo by constantly seeking out ventures they have not yet mastered. They seldom pass up a chance to indulge in a new experience, and a new challenge is much more likely to excite them than a normal lifestyle.
