Guardiana (Empath stories)

Guardiana is a character that who is part of the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series. She is a gnome who is the guardian of the Cavern Of Gems. She has rather poor eyesight and thus can't see very well.

On a day a few years before Empath's final return from Psychelia, she is busy dusting the cavern, seeming rather bored that she has every gem a gnome could want but no excitement in her life. Suddenly, she was visited by Picklick the male gnome and Hefty, who was disguised as Smurfette to keep Picklick away from her. She at first trapped them with stalactites so that they wouldn't escape. However, she decided to spare Picklick's "girlfriend" so that they could have a girl talk together. While they were chatting together, Picklick escaped through burrowing and took Guardiana instead of Hefty, which caused the both of them to fall in love and eventually get married.

Guardiana has made a few other appearances: once at Woody and Laconia's wedding at Bluebell Dell (before it was crashed by Gargamel with his Ghoulliope machine), and once at Empath and Smurfette's wedding.
