==== The Iron Guard ====
The Iron Guard are the Sovereign’s personal bodyguards.  Members are picked for their combat prowess, ability to work in military teamwork, and their tested and unquestioned loyalty to the Sovereign.  

The Shadow Watch continuously tests the loyalty of the members of the guard with schemes and operations designed to root out any who might betray the Sovereign.  There have been few times such operations have resulted in catching anyone – but the resulting punishments have been so spectacularly cruel and public that they likely have revised any designs or thoughts of those guards who remain.
