Fellowship - Guardian

Chimassu Wild – Lore & History

The Wild Chimassu is a legendary celestial beast, revered in many ancient times as a guardian spirit that watches over sacred places and lost pathways between worlds. Tales say the Chimassu was created by the gods to serve as a bridge between the mortal realm and the heavens, appearing only in moments of great need or cosmic upheaval.

As a Guardian creature, Chimassu is known for its fierce loyalty and unparalleled strength.

Classes such as; Marksmen Rangers and Barbarian Beast Masters, Talented Scouts or those highly attuned to the primal or celestial forces may attempt to earn Fellowships as their Guardians, and Wild Guardians may only be captured, not purchased from the SorC store. To do this requires a process of; rapport, calm, tame, bond when you'll then need to establish loyalty via periodic rolls. to keep any Guardian, in this case the Wild Chimassu. Acquiring legendary guardians is a monumental feat that requires immense patience, skill, and a consistent heart. But first it must be found. Finding rare Guardians in the wild is exceedingly rare; few living souls have succeeded in gaining its trust, and even fewer have managed to call one their companion. The process of rapporting, calming, taming, bonding and loyalty is quite the challenge, as is keeping it happy - it's said Guardians have even turned on their capturers. Performing all five is a lengthy and epic accomplishment, often spoken of in awe among adventurers.

The standard (not the Wild) Chimassu’s card can also be acquired as a card in the SorC store, where its spirit is bound and can be summoned by those who possess the card.

The store-bought Chimassu displays standard enhancement effects and more typical, subdued coloration - a reflection of its mundane origins and ease of acquisition. In contrast, a Chimassu that has been captured from the wild is exceedingly difficult to obtain, and is marked by vibrant, flamboyant colorations - shimmering with radiant hues and rare patterns. These wild-captured Chimassu are far more striking and attractive, making each one a truly rare collector’s prize and a testament to the skill and dedication of its guardian.

Whether encountered in the wild or acquired through the SorC store, the Chimassu remains a symbol of hope, strength, and the enduring connection between the realms.
