~ ish commenting on the Sultan's assassination by GuardianNova. |
GuardianNova is a supporting antagonist in Season 1 of the Minecraft social experiment web series The State Experiments created by ish.
He serves as a supporting antagonist in Day 3, the main antagonist of Day 5 and the posthumous overarching antagonist of Day 6.
He is a player who took part in the first season of the State Experiment and became a member of the Sultanate faction of the Desert State. Eventually, GuardianNova was exiled after being accused of stealing several items and killing livestock, resulting in him returning periodically to cause chaos before eventually killing the Sultan.
He was portrayed by the Minecraft player of the same name.
Appearance[]
GuardianNova appears as an entity wearing a white spacesuit with black markings and a black glass screen on his helmet. It's unknown what's inside the suit.
Personality[]
GuardianNova's personality is largely unknown, however, following he exile, he showed himself to be particularly vengeful and ruthless, as he returned to the Sultanate periodically just to cause chaos out of spite for being banished by killing the island's livestock. He also proved himself to be smart and knowledgeable when it came to navigating the island and finding places to cause havoc. Eventually, his vengefulness resulted in him killing the Sultan who banished him before cowardly attempting to escape persecution.
History[]

GuardianNova swimming back to the Sultanate to cause chaos.
On Day 3, the Sultanate faction of the Desert State reported that many items had been randomly stolen, chests were destroyed and numerous animals had been mysteriously killed. Eventually, for unknown reasons, suspicion fell on GuardianNova and he was quickly exiled in disgrace. Angry and vengeful, GuardianNova kept returning to the island periodically to cause chaos by killing more of the Sultanate's animals, causing a general sense of unrest within the community.

On Day 5, GuardianNova once again arrived at the Sultanate, but this time with a different goal of revenge in mind. As the Sultan was minding his own business, GuardianNova snuck onto the island and was attacked by several Sultanate citizens, who were too late to stop him as he came from behind and killed the Sultan on the spot before fleeing the Sultanate. News of the Sultan's assassination spread quickly across the entire Desert State and soon the entire Sultanate military was looking for GuardianNova. Eventually, GuardianNova was found swimming away in the ocean and the military attacked, successfully killing him and avenging the Sultan's death.

Following GuardianNova and the Sultan's death, the Desert State was in a state of mourning, although his death was also followed by several days of peace as the nation continued to build. The alliance between Zombta and the new Sultan was stronger than the previous one, uniting them together and strengthening their communication. Eventually, the Amazon, led by Zombta, gathered for a group photo with GuardianNova's severed head in the background.
Trivia[]
- It was never proven if GuardianNova was behind the thefts and animal killings. However, given that his first resort to being exiled was to kill the Sultanate's animals in retaliation, it's likely that the accusations were true, which would make GuardianNova's exile completely justified.
