The Royal Guard are a bold example of an Imperial symbol reimagined and altered by the Dark Brotherhood to serve its purposes. The crimson colored armor is a deliberate echo of those worn by Emperor Palpatines Royal Guard, but the pageantry of the robes has been swept aside to allow an unhindered view of precision-machined combat armor. The Guard are the last line of defense protecting the Grand Master, ready to destroy any threat that would dare attempt to waste the Grand Master’s time.

The Grand Master's Royal Guard are lead and overseen by the Fist of the Brotherhood.
