ScienceBall: Explain that guardians are bosses (in normal video game terms), and why we call them guardians (from what I can tell). Insert a heading before the Backup Guardians. The current tables only cover the main campaign. Non-quest boss unlocks.

+'''Guardians''' are unique hostile NPCs which inhabit a particular [[zone]], typically on the last level. They are the main (story) bosses of Tales of Maj'Eyal. They are fixed (not randomly generated) bosses, as opposed to the random bosses that can appear in certain situations, or as regular enemies on higher [[difficulties]]. The name "Guardian" comes from the game's code.
