Axis's construct guardians are built in great numbers by axiomites and regularly patrol the streets of that rigidly structured metropolis. Beyond the city, a vigilia can be summoned by mortals to guard a specifc location or enforce a leader's edicts.
Although generally humanoid in form, their bodies are a loose mesh of brass strips around a crystalline core like the arbiters they're based on. Each vigilia's core is formed around a different fragment of legal text from Axis's vast libraries. This bylaw or subsection, although not necessarily important to others, forms the mystical and emotional driving force behind these sentinels.
Left to their own devices, vigilias typically enforce local laws to the best of their understanding, falling back on the labyrinthine ordinances of Axis to fll in any gaps. Although vigilias are uncomfortable making judgment calls, they're capable of doing so. That said, this discomfort frequently causes them to seek refuge in areas with the most complex and complete laws.
