Since the times after the Fall, the Awakened have always been able to find uses for Sleepwalkers, those mortals not subject to Quiescence or threatening their works with Disbelief. The Proximi bloodlines offering a measure of innate magical power brought greater utility still. The Twilight Guardians are not one single bloodline, but several sharing similar characteristics fostered by the Adamantine Arrow wherever they were found. Some speculate that they may have once been an Adamantine Dynasty in ancient Atlantis serving the Ungula Draconis, rediscovered when the Awakened scattered into the Fallen World. Any evidence of those origins is now lost. | Since the times after the Fall, the Awakened have always been able to find uses for Sleepwalkers, those mortals not subject to Quiescence or threatening their works with Disbelief.

'''Appearance''': While Twilight Guardians come from a range of different ethnic backgrounds, they often have a wildness about them. That might be thick, unmanageable hair, unusual eye colours like amber or violet, a predatory grace in how they move or just a primal sense of intensity and vitality. They tend towards athletic muscularity, a trait honed by training. | '''Appearance''': While Twilight Guardians come from a range of different ethnic backgrounds, they often have a wildness about them.

'''Curse''': In their history, oaths were sworn binding them to the Adamant Way and placing them within their command structure. Twilight Guardians must obey any legitimate order issued by a recognised Adamant Sage, Banner Warden or a Consilium's Sentinel or Provost, in that order of precedence, though they retain a degree of autonomy in how to interpret that order. This includes anything that might be construed as suicidal (though not direct orders to kill themselves). It is by design that their loyalty is to the Adamantine Arrow first, and the military or judicial authorities of a Consilium second. | '''Curse''': In their history, oaths were sworn binding them to the Adamant Way and placing them within their command structure.
