NAME = GUARDIAN OF THE UNIVERSE
SECRET IDENTITY = Sayd

SPECIES = Oan
UNIQUENESS = Event Hero
CLASS = Guardian
PERSONALITY = Selfless

SIZE/HEIGHT = Small 3

MOVE = 6
RANGE = 4
ATTACK = 5
DEFENSE = 9

ORANGE LANTERN GUARDIAN
At the start of the game, choose an Orange Lantern you control to be Guardian of the Universe's Master. For the entire game, once per combat roll, her Master must re-roll one combat die. While Guardian of the Universe is adjacent to her Master, figures who could attack Guardian of the Universe cannot attack her Master.

FORCED TO SERVE
If Guardian of the Universe's Master is Larfleeze, her name is considered to be Orange Construct in addition to what is listed on this card. After moving with this figure, if she started her movement adjacent to Larfleeze, you may immediately place Larfleeze adjacent to this figure. Larfleeze will not take any leaving engagement attacks when moved this way.

UNDERMINING WISDOM
Order Markers cannot be removed from this card. If there is at least one Order Marker on this card and:
• Guardian of the Universe is within 3 spaces of her Master, add 3 to your initiative roll;
• Guardian of the Universe is not within 3 spaces of her Master, subtract 3 from your initiative roll.

SUPER STRENGTH

Just a thought, could be cool if she was named Guardian of the Orange Light or something like that. Don't know if it's strictly canonical, but we've always been pretty loose with names in the Lanternverse anyways.

EDIT: Looking at it again, might make sense to cut the D20 re-roll. We don't actually have a D20 on an OL, and forcing someone to re-roll a D20 is basically just making them waste time in most scenarios.

She's still a Guardian of the Universe just working for the Orange Lanterns at this time. :shrug:

Makes sense to me.

Yeah, I'd stick with Guardian of the Universe. That has some minor synergy attached to it.

I like where this ended up. :up:

Someone mentioned splitting the first power into two powers.

Briefly reading her wiki page, the movement actually feels a little backwards? It seems like she's being held hostage by Larfleeze more than leading him, so I feel like he should be dragging her along, not the other way around - that she should move after he moves.

I wouldn't mind separating out the two halves of the first power, but it's not super wordy as-is. No strong preference.

He literally rides her (like in the image in the OP), so we were thinking of it as a Carry essentially.

:lol: I didn't even notice that. That makes sense.

Looks good. :up: It's pretty well vetted at this point. 270 for starting cost?
