Guardian of Nature

Guardians of Nature were released on the 26th of March 2010 as a part of the "Mod Mayhem" release. These dragons cannot be found in the Cave, they can only be obtained via the "Summon" breed specific action. The Abandon action was removed for this dragon type because they are considered to be unique dragons for the Scroll Owner (see TJ09 IRC Chat comment below). There is a limit of two per scroll. Therefore, you can only have two successful summons and then the BSA will vanish and won't come back. This dragon is classified as rare and it currently has no breed specific action.

The Guardians of Nature can channel the forces of ice, fire and lightning. The strong powers of the Magma, Ice, and Thunder dragons combine to summon the egg, giving it great power. This makes it one of the rarest dragons to be released. There is rumored to be an 11% chance for a summoning to be successful.

Guardians of Nature have many names, including: None of these names are officially correct except for "Guardian of Nature".
 * Guardian of Nature (official name, used by the majority)
 * Rugia (used by many workers, spriters and TJ09).
 * Humboldt (used by the adult spriter of this breed)

Guardians of Nature eggs and hatchlings cannot be abandoned. TJ09 has explained why on the IRC:

: TJ, why can't we abandon summons/Guardians of Nature anymore?

: PrincessKiara, because they're meant for you.

: They aren't meant for your friend, then you summon an egg, it's yours.

Strangely, there is a Guardian of Nature with the code TJ09. The code is justified, seeing as how it's a Thuwed dragon.

Dragon descriptions
Adult:

"This breed of dragon was thought to exist only in legend. Although their name varies between cultures, they are often referred to as "Guardians of Nature." They are able to channel the forces of fire, ice and lightning, which allows them to wield tremendous power. Seen very rarely, it is thought that they only become active when something is threatening the territory they have chosen to guard. In order to protect their chosen home, these dragons are incredibly adaptable; they have been seen everywhere from remote mountain ranges, to ancient forests, to the darkest depths of the ocean."

Mature hatchling:

"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It seems very protective. And look! It's grown its wings! It must be close to maturing."

Hatchling:

"Aww... It's a cute baby dragon. It seems very protective."

Egg:

"This egg glows mysteriously."
