A guardian is supposed to answer any and all your questions about the game as best as they can. Many guardians also choose to help their apprentices monetarily, though this is not required.
As long as you are below level 11, you may get a guardian. If you (the apprentice) can reach level 20 within ten days of getting a guardian, then you will be awarded a special level 21 weapon with the same attack as one of the level 29 weapons. The guardian receives 10 reputation points, which they can use to buy special guardian armor or extreme stones. If the apprentice does not make it to level 20 within the time limit, neither character gets their reward.
It is recommended that, before actually picking a guardian, you PM your person of choice and get to know them a little. Someone who plays at the same time of day as you, speaks understandable English (or another language you know), and can answer simple questions will probably be a good guardian for you.
After you reach level 20, you can become a guardian yourself.
