The Guardian (I-V-C-G)

The loyal protector; defers to the safe, familiar consensus.

You keep everyone safe by never questioning who's in charge.

You're the loyal protector. Your whole decision frame is keep everyone safe, stay the known course — you defer to the trusted leader, distrust the unfamiliar, and put yourself between the people you love and harm. Dependable, steady, conflict-avoidant in the best way: when things get dark, you're the one who doesn't bolt. That's Sam carrying Frodo. But you keep everyone safe by never questioning who's in charge. Your blind spot is Authority Bias woven with the Just-World Hypothesis and In-Group Bias: you trust whoever holds the role and whoever's inside your circle, which makes you slow — sometimes dangerously slow — to see when a trusted figure has actually gone wrong. Your faith is a gift to the people who deserve it and a liability around the ones who don't. The leader who fails you won't look like a villain; they'll look like the person you were right to follow yesterday, and your loyalty will be the last thing to notice the difference.
