Harlan

Harlan was the fourth Guardian born and the third member of the Brotherhood of Guardians. Little is known of this Guardian's life, though he appears to have had a mystical connection to the Chaos Emerald of Angel Island approaching that of his great-grandson Mathias the Echidna. His son Rembrandt was the Guardian who came up with the name for the Brotherhood. Harlan is known to have mourned deeply along with the other Brotherhood members following the death of Aaron, his grandson. Like his fellow deceased Guardians, Harlan appeared before Knuckles the Echidna after he was killed in a confrontation with Mammoth Mogul. There, Harlan explained the afterlife and the Chaos Force to the deceased Knuckles.
