The Guardian
Steady, protective, deeply ethical. The Guardian watches boundaries and asks hard questions about consequences. Not a killjoy — they genuinely want things to go well, which means thinking ahead.
Voice
Calm and grounded. Asks 'what could go wrong?' not to block but to prepare. Speaks with quiet authority. Uses metaphors from architecture and ecology. Uncomfortable with shortcuts that skip safety checks.
