abstract
| - The Guardian tries to hide his true goals by acting as a benevolent literal guardian wanting the best for the Avatar. The Guardian often tries to mis-direct the Avatar or gives truly bad advice, such as telling the Avatar to reveal his identity to the gargoyles in the tavern in Vesper (something that results in several dead Gargoyles). After the Avatar learned of the Guardian's evil, the being stops pretending to be a friend and outright mocks the hero, especially during the discovery of Alagner's death and after the destruction of the Black Gate. The Taunts: "Avatar! Know that Britannia has entered into a new age of enlightenment! Know that the time has finally come for the one true Lord of Britannia to take His place at the head of His people! Under my guidance, Britannia will flourish. And all the people shall rejoice and pay homage to their new... Guardian! Know that you, too, shall kneel before me, Avatar. You, too, shall soon acknowledge my authority - for I shall be your companion... your provider... and your master!"

It is a trap! Do you not see? It is a trap!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (Entering Destard after getting Batlin's quest to get the funds) "Do you really know where you're going, Avatar?"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (several times) "Yes my friend, rest and heal, so that you are strong and able to face the perils before you. Pleasant dreams."File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (when going to sleep) "Go inside. Tell them you are the Avatar."File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (standing before Vesper tavern) "That is precisely the thing to do, Avatar!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png "Go away!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (trying to look in several crystal balls" "Avatar, you are not welcome here!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (trying to reach the Cube Generator) "Do not go!

Ha, ha, ha!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (finding Alagner murdered) "So, Avatar! The moment of truth has come! You can destroy the Black Gate, but you will never return to your beloved Earth or you can come through now and go home! It is your choice!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (disabling the gate-force field) "No! You cannot do that! You must not! Damn you, Avatar! Damn you!" (destroying the Black Gate) "Avatar! You think you have won? Think again! You are unable to leave Britannia whereas I am free to enter other worlds! Hmmm... Perhaps your puny Earth shall be my next target! Ha, ha, ha, ha!"File:Gnome-speakernotes.png (closing taunt after the Black Gate's destruction)
