About

These agile sentinels lurk near gates, faerie rings, and other thresholds. Regardless of who or what they serve, these guardians are harsh judges. They will question any newcomers about their business and decide whether they are worthy enough to visit. If the thresholder decides the strangers aren’t worthy, it will order them to leave. Thresholders will attack anyone that disobeys their orders.
