The Last City, Humanity's last stronghold against the darkness. Among the regular civilians, there are Guardians, protectors of the light. They come in three classes: Titan, Hunter and Warlock. But what if I told you there was a mystical 4th? They...
Earth, the last human world in the solar system safe for humans. Well, the Last City specifically, it's final stronghold. In the Tower, the Guardians reside, either prepping for another mission or fixing their gear. They are protectors of Humanity and chosen by the Traveler to help in that endeavor. They are separated by their Ghosts, little balls of light, into three classes. Some guardians are joking around and tossing knives and wearing cloaks. These are Hunters, agile and stealthy, and can kill you before you see them. Then there are loud guardians with broad shoulders and a hearty attitude. These are Titans, the wall on the battlefield. Then we finally come to some that are reading books and meditating alone. These are Warlocks, the most graceful but destructive among the classes.
However.....we see a man sitting at a bar, hunched over drinking a beer. He silently signals the barkeep for another. On his black, torn cape is his tattered symbol.

A young Hunter looks over to the man, then turns to his Titan clan mate and taps his shoulder. The Titan looks back and sees the young man.
"What's up?" The Titan asks cheerily
"Who's that? I haven't seen him before." The Hunter says, pointing his thumb at the strange man
"Who-" the Titan starts to say, but sees the man
"Don't ever talk to that man. Ever." The Titan says in anger
The Hunter leans forward, curious about his friends behavior.
"But why? Isn't he just an ordinary man?" The Hunter says, but his Titan friend grabs his shoulders
"I'm serious. That man is more dangerous than any Guardian to exist." The Titan says, his grip intensifying, then he lets go "Just don't, okay? It's bad luck."
As the Titan walks away, the Hunter looks back over at the man and sees him paying the barkeep with....a Strange Coin? The bartender smiles then passes over one last drink which the strange man takes with him. As he walks away, people subtly clear a path for him, which the Hunter notices instantly.

As the courtyard for Guardians is bustling with new Guardians, the bounty tracker was busy placing bounties. As he finished updating the bounties, even a rare one for a raid, its immediately taken down. The drone looks over and drops its clipboard and steps back in shock, making some Guardians look over. The postmaster short circuits seeing the scene, scaring Guardians. Banshee-44 looks over and runs over to the cloaked male, making everyone turn at this point. The cloaked male looks over and Banshee-44 sees his helmet and armor adorned, which terrified him.
