Guardians are charged with the protection of humanity's survivors, but many have splintered off into other groups with their own agendas. For example, it is commonplace for Guardians to align with one of the City's many [[faction]]s for support. Some however leave the city altogether, such as those aligned with [[Concordat]] or the Cult of [[Osiris]]. Few have turned their back on the Light and humanity, such as the villainous [[Dredgen Yor]].
