Guide


 * "They are the ones blessed by the Tower with the knowledge of all the paths within, to assist in its navigation, and, at times, are even able to foresee the future and change it."
 * - Yu Han Sung explaining Guides to Rachel

The Guide (길잡이, Giljahbi; "one who chooses and leads the way") is a special Position that leads the way for the team.

About
Within the the Tower there are two known prominent species with the potential with the ability to guide. Such species are categorized as the Silver Dwarves and the Red Witches. Silver Dwarves are knows for their distinctive silver hair and short stature in contrast of the Red Witches as they are known for their bright red hair.

A Guide usually works as a team with a Light Bearer. While the Light Bearer shines light upon the dark surroundings, the Guide may lead its team through the most advantageous route. Generally, the Guide locates the path and conveys the information to the Light Bearer, who then transmit the information to the entire team. However, if the Guide is travelling on a safer path and doesn't need a Light Bearer, then they probably use a Pocket to illuminate the surroundings.

Guides have excellent analysis skills, and an A-Rank Guide can determine the power of an individual just by looking at them. However, Evan Edrok failed to assess Baam's inherent qualities and thought of him as average. Guides seen so far in the series have displayed an uncommon intuition as to what was going on, most likely due to their ability to read and understand 'paths'.

Yu Han Sung explained to Rachel that Guides are the ones "blessed by The Tower with the knowledge of all the paths within, to assist in its navigation and, at times, are even able to foresee the future and change it". Guides, however, have quite low battle capabilities.

When Koon Aguero Agnis asks her how she's present on the 29th Floor despite having failed the Floor of Test, Hwa Ryun replies that "I can go anywhere. I'm a Guide, after all", implying that Guides can reach Floors without passing the tests normally necessary to do so.

The Bidau Family's Research Institute forbids the research of the Guide Position, although the Family Head, Po Bidau Gustang, is fascinated with it. It is believed that he is saving the research for himself.

Abilities
The most notorious trait of a Guide is the ability of "seeing" the paths of the Tower and instructing someone on the path they can take. However a Guide can only teach the path to those who are capable of walking it. For example: Evan Edrok didn't want to help Baam during the Guardian's Test on the 1st Floor because an ordinary person would die if they had tried the solution.
