Lore[]
The Jeweled Protectors are giant mythical winged carnivores of Ionia with a mix of tiger and lion features. 
Protectors are born wingless and without manes until 
a certain age when they grow their manes while their wings grow out from their backs. Their other noticeable features are their two tails and gems embedded along their spines and forehead that glow with a mysterious power.

Obtaining a duplicate will upgrade your skin to the next tier, up to tier 3, at which point the skin is removed from the reward pool.
