As there are nine Pillars, there are nearly always nine guardians at any given time. Guardians are endowned with immortality and magical powers related to the Pillar they serve. Should a guardian die, their place will be taken by a person who is born at the presice moment of the previous guardian's death. The members are symbiotically bound. When Nupraptor The Mentalist fell into madness, the rest of the Circle did as well. When the Pillars were raised, the original nine Guardians were vampires. Since vampires could no longer reproduce, a result of the Hylden curse, they would turn any new human guardians that were called to serve into vampires. This tradition continued until Moebius and Mortanius , who had been called to serve as Guardians of Time and Death, revolted against them and claimed the Pillars for humankind. What follows is a list of all of the guardians that have been shown on screen over the course of the series.
The ancient vampire Janos Audron was also appointed at the same time as the original guardians, but as his job was to protect the Reaver , he was never actually a member of the Circle of Nine. There have also been many guardians depicted in vampire artwork within the game, but the identities of the subjects in the paintings cannot be determined. |
