Who did you pick as your Guardian?

[aisustrong]

halone
icy fury for days

[Razzle]

Thaliak, picked it from 1.0 before I even knew about it. Because I like water element and out of the 2 water elemental gods I liked his description more as a healer character

Turns out Louisolox or whatever also picked it

[RayneBoemir]

Halone because Gladiator/Paladin is my main.

[Thunda_Cat_SMASH]

Orshon the wanderer, which is probably misspelled somehow, lol.

Anyway, my reason for this was two fold. Thinking about my character's background, I knew that she was going to be a mercenary, something that invoked an image of a fierce wanderer. I also knew I wanted to give an image of her as a protector of sorts, but I didn't see any that seemed to fit.

[Bamboofox]

Azeyma, the Warden. She's the patron deity of Seeker cats, which my character is. I also started out as GLA/PLD and love anything associated with protection and watching over others. (My current title is even "of the Stalwart Shield", heh.)

[Enkidoh]

I picked Azeyma the Warden, the Goddess of the Sun, for the same reason as Bamboofox - She is the guardian of the Seekers of the Sun miqo'te which my character is a member of.

Additionally, I also chose Azeyma back in version 1.0 because I felt She was the closest of The Twelve to Altana, the Goddess of the Dawn in FFXI, whom my FFXI character was a devout follower of. So Vana'dielian Enki's devotion to Altana crossed worlds to manifest as Eorzean Enki's reverence for Azeyma.

Rhalgr cuz i like to **** things up!!!
coincidentally i main MNK, and lore-wise, mnk prays to Rhalgr

[QuinceTaru]

I was talking about this earlier today i hope they tie the new zodiac quest to guardians! 12 guardians 12 weapons would be fun and me i choice oschon

[Shyluv]

Menphina, cause I love moons. Real moons.

Not butt moons.

[Grey_Cain]

Rhalgr for destruction because I knew what I'd be spending most of my time doing as an adventurer. XD

Incidentally, when you're asked your reasons for becoming an adventurer in the opening cutscenes, during the beta I originally chose Power because I was following Rhalgr's ways, but after they wiped the characters when I made my permanent character I chose ... because I thought the Determination ring would be better. I came to regret that decision eventually, but I was finally able to make it right answering the question for the Doman kids. For the love of all that's destroyed by Holy!
