Pretty sure that's not really a spoiler.

Which books was that in? I may skip ahead to read it.
Saedar:
1.) You don't want to skip ahead, trust me.
2.) For the guardian idea, I could see using a Champion of God and then have the High Concept be something like "Divine Guardian" and then have a trouble concept of "I protect X." Then tailor the powers and other aspects to fit with that idea.

I have a couple of ideas and was hoping to glean some incite from how they've been shown in the books before settling on one specific idea.
I was thinking of playing a guardian angel.
After thinking about it for a while I thought that it might be more fun to play a human who was assigned Guardian status by an angel. My thought was that Guardian Angels are not always angels but human representitives who are given abilities and items of power to act as Guardians on earth for the Heavens.
Another thought was that my character would not technically be a guardian angel but carried an item that was imbued with the soul of an angel (or a protective spirit (ala Bob) that would supply the powers and abilities for my human host character.

That is frankly just the basic Champion of God template. protecting people and showing up at the right time to save them screams Guide my Hand, If you want an Item of Power say a breastplate that gives you Supernatural Toughness with the Catch of Innocence. so if the bad guys convince the innocent to attack you, you are vulnerable, or if their weapons are coated wiht the blood of the innocent and you have already failed in your duty your armor doesn't work. all in all a -6 refresh character before mortal stunts, not to shabby.
Edit: Saedar beat me too it, great minds think alike i guess.

If it's what I think it is, I think it was in Proven Guilty... but it was more of a passing comment.
Unless there was another incident that I'm overlooking?

No that's the one.
You REALLY don't want to skip over especially since it's a 1 line throw away comment.
