The shield between the hive and harm.
The Warden is a living bulwark — a towering monstrosity bred to absorb unimaginable punishment and react with devastating counterforce. Rewired to feel no pain, it instinctively hurls itself into danger, shielding its cephalyx creators from harm with corded muscle and hardened plating.
