Many poltergeists are fiercely territorial over the domains they choose to haunt, but these have extended that protection even to the people who share their domain with them. Some say they must be the lingering souls of those who guarded the Vaults in life; others suggest the Ironbound Order simply recruited them in common cause. Whichever is true, their very presence shelters other creatures from missiles, causing sling and spell alike to veer off-course at the last moment.

Useful Info

Polterguardians are support casters, which give passive repel missiles to all nearby allies. They appear in the Vaults as a part of vault warden and ironbound preserver bands, but sometimes they spawn with just 1-2 random monsters.
