==Appearance and Abilities==

Tower Guardians resemble regular programs, though they generally appear older than most, and wear long robes and tight-fitting hoods, or tall headdresses and gloves when occupying their pods. They are typically spiritually inclined, and are known to recite formal invocations similar to prayers before allowing programs to pass into their towers.

From their pods at the entrance to their I/O Towers, Guardians have a significant amount of control over the surrounding architecture; they are able to raise force-fields over their Tower's doors and windows, secure enough to require a [[Logic Probe]] to breach them, and to cause their dais stairs to repel programs who attempt to pass without permission. Few programs would be disrespectful enough to attempt to force their way past a Guardian. However, [[Sark|Sark's]] [[guard]]s were able to extract Dumont from his pod and thus capture him.
