I think Rasputin knew that the Traveler had been to other civilizations and had abandoned them to and left them to a terrible fate (like the Eliksni). Realizing this, Rasputin saw the Traveler was preparing to abandon us, too, and said "Oh [i]hell[/i] no" and crippled the Traveler using an anti-matter bomb (I think) -- I believe that's in one of the other Ghost Fragment Rasputin cards. Forcing the Traveler to stay means that the Traveler was forced to help, which I think created the Guardians.

Yeah this seems to be the most likely scenario and is actually a pretty cool twist. Forcing the traveler to protect itself and in turn us was a pretty smart move by rasputin and opens up so many possibilities for the future (will the traveller be pissed when he is back up and running?). I also read in another grimiore that rasputin dislikes guardians and the traveller but knows it needs us. Rapsutin is deffinately my favourite thing/character/ai in the game
