The Guardian of the Eastern Dawn is a lithe construct of solid granite. Distinctly feminine and given a viscous visage, she is the terror or many who would seek to cause trouble during her vigil. She easily takes to the air and is surprisingly nimble and mobile.
The Guardian of the Eastern Dawn was created as a defender of the new day, an effigy of rebirth, protection and light. She protects the citadel from the various creatures of the night and those who would seek to bring conflict into her domain. In combat, she will prefer to stay airborne and throw ranged attacks, only using the Collection Orbs to heal when below half her health. She will only use her Claw and Tail attacks when in desperate need. She acts in support of her counterpart, the Guardian of the Western Dusk. Dawn is active from sunset to sunrise each day, however, she may stay active for longer if engaged in a fight, but her energy will be rapidly drained with the awakening of Dusk. |
