Shard Guardian

Intro
The Shard Guardian was found and fought in the demiplane opened by the Jewelled Idol and Dual Crystal Key.

According to Godric's mediocre INT check, it probably originated from the Elemental Plane of Earth. It was presumably a servant or creation of Yan Turin.

Description
The Shard Guardian was a medium-sized creature.

It remained flying a few feet above the ground throughout the battle.

"Thinking With Portals" (1x8)
The party opened a portal to the Shard Guardian's demiplane in The Sapphire Tower. The creature easily took out Vangdondalor, who was sent to scout through the portal, before the party engaged it in battle. Upon its defeat, it exploded into shrapnel, knocking Ignatious unconscious and reducing Godric to 1 HP and leaving only a pile of rubble.

The Guardian's presence was presumably part of what was keeping the demiplane stable, as the portal began to close immediately upon its defeat.
