The '''Four Guardians''' are a group that appear in the short story [[Fanon:Blank Slates|Blank Slates]]. They act as the decision makers in [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]], and worked against [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]] after her attack. Although their powers are not explicity stated in Blank Slates, each of the Guardians has the ability to control and fight with an element.

== {{Icon|Book}} Story ==
The Four Guardians were commissioned by [[Fanon:Joseph Tringali|Joe]] to make decisions in [[Fanon:The Void|The Void]] alongside the screeners [[Fanon:Willham|Willham]] and [[Fanon:Mayo|Mayo]]. They were also tasked with lowering beings into the Void after they were cut or deemed unused. After the development cycle of each game, they would be deleted until the next game started development.

During the development cycle for [[Drawn to Life: Two Realms]], Joe called the Guardians to the [[Fanon:Discussion Grounds|Discussion Grounds]] to pick a character to revive for the upcoming game. When [[Fanon:Shadow Mari|Shadow Mari]] is passed over by the group, she attacks the Void, killing Willham and covering [[Fanon:Ore|Ore]] in [[Shadow]]. The rest of the Guardians revive him in [[Lavasteam]]'s color vat, and the make their way back to the discussion grounds. When they get there, they find [[Mildew]], Joe, and [[Fanon:David Franco|Franco]] laying on the ground dazed. They help them up and explain the situation before being ambushed by [[Fanon:Drakon|Drakon]] and [[Fanon:Dinofrog|Dinofrog]].

Dinofrog attacks the Guardians, destroying the discussion grounds during the battle, and the Guardians get help from [[Fanon:Alana/Stories|Alana]], Willham, and the [[Fanon:Droogle Killer|Droogle Killer]] during the fight. Weary of Mayo due to new information they got from the devs, the Guardians ride to the [[Fanon:Shadow Hole|Shadow Hole]] with the screeners. When they arrive at the hole, they fight off hordes of Shadow and [[Fanon:Ink|Ink]] monsters until Shadow Mari calls them off. When Mayo orders Shadow Mari to kill Willham, the Guardians are among the beings who begin to question her allegiance.

After Mayo's breakdown, [[Fanon:Paint|Paint]] and Ore protect her body while [[Fanon:Flash|Flash]] and [[Fanon:Hose|Hose]] ask Franco to leave the [[Fanon:Hose|Hose]] Void populated so that they wouldn't be bored or alone outside of development cycles. Franco ascends to the [[Developer's Grove]] as Flash and Hose join Paint and Ore. When Joe makes his decrees to leave the Void populated and to delete Mayo, the Guardians are some of the beings in the group that wishes [[Aly]] luck. When [[Fanon:Fiora|Fiora]] names [[Fanon:Sandal|Sandal]], Ore is the first in the group to laugh in agreement at the name.

During [[Fanon:Salem Rose|Salem Rose]]'s attack on the void, all four of the Guardians were killed by a wave of color he created. However, the spirits of the Guardians left their bodies and left to inhabit other bodies, with Flash becoming [[Fanon:Mill|Mill]], Paint becoming [[Fanon:Sparky|Sparky]], Hose becoming [[Fanon:Violet|Violet]], and Ore becoming [[Fanon:Hoopz|Hoopz]]. The Guardians, now separated from each other and curious to find out why the [[Fanon:Wii Village|Wii Village]] had been attack, each go on their own to stop the new forces attacking the void. After some time, they regroup at the [[Fanon:Color Vat|Color Vat]], where they face off against the [[Fanon:Tree King|Tree King]], [[Fanon:Squid|Squid]], and [[Fanon:Jungle Creature|Jungle Creature]]. During this battle, [[Fanon:Lambert|Lambert]] gains water-based abilities, and Violet makes him a Guardian.

After winning the battle, Mill is hesitant to say they won, as the Jungle Creature had split into four and began to escape. The Guardians follow one piece of the creature to the [[Fanon:Two Realms Plains|Two Realms Plains]], where they, along with the screeners and others who were there, fight the newly formed [[Fanon:Shadow Squid|Shadow Squid]]. After this fight, they go to the Wii Village, seeing a new Tree King attacking. They defeat the Tree King while Lambert splits off to defeat a corrupted Sandal, destroying three out of four pieces of the Jungle Creature.

A week later, the Guardians and screeners, sans Lambert, go to each of the villages to see how they are recovering from the Tree King's attacks. Mill checks up on [[Fanon:The Next Chapter Village|The Next Chapter Village]], learning about Rocko's identity crisis. He helps Rocko realize himself as [[Fanon:Repair Guy|Repair Guy]], and Mill returns to the [[Fanon:Guardians' HQ|Guardians' HQ]] to find the [[Fanon:Droogle Leader|Droogle Leader]] waiting inside.
