As a Guardian you are part of an elite unit responsible for protecting the federation while they extract a newly discovered and mysterious new energy source, perovskite, a red and very powerful mineral that only grows in the outer rim of the galaxy. In addition to their powerful arsenal, Guardians can also instantly summon and control defensive structures and units to help them fight invading armies.(Storyline via IGDB)
