Protector

A Protector was a member of the Protectors of the Realms, an interdimensional group founded 15 years after the Great Collision to guard and preserve the Realms. Protectors were usually, but not always, Harnessers, able to harness the power of the Cosmic Field. Occasionally sentients who were simply skilled warriors became Protectors, or worked as part of a protectory force for Protectors.

Protectors worked to protect the Realms from threats that would either disrupt the Cosmic Field, throwing the Realms into Chaos, or hurt the structural integrity of the Realms. Protectors also worked toresolve disputes between or within certain Realms, although this function was often filled by the Arbiters.

History
The term Protector became official when the Protectors of the Realms was founded 15 years after the Great Collision. It is thought that the first unofficial "Protector" was Abimelech, a Traveler who first spearheaded the idea to create an official protectory force for the Realms.
