Guardians are a weapon, Created from willing boys, usually orphans, and bio-augmented and Equipped with an energy core and a high speed processing computer, which dictates the amount of energy they can handle while using their energy swords and energy guns. The protocols also implements different attack programs, such as simple hand to hand combat and martial arts or the use of an energy rifle in sniping and energy sword.
Their handlers are an invaluable resource, Most guardian and handler pairs end up married with families(yes, they remove the energy core). Handlers hold the codewords for the defensive and attack protocols. The words are based off memory. Protocols are based off of how much energy a Guardian can tolerate.
