Emerald Guard

Military unit

The Count herself has direct command over the Emerald Guard, a brigade size Strike Force of Medium Cavalry.

The Emerald Guards are initially trained at The Citadel outside of Jedbridge, and then go into elite cavalry training at the Gellor Estates just north of High Mardreth. Skilled in any form of combat, the Emerald Guards specialize in mounted warfare, with a minor emphasis in peacekeeping. Known largely throughout the County of Urnst as the legal authority representing the Count, they gain respect and cooperation with all but the corrupt.

The Emerald Guard is headquartered in High Mardreth, with garrisons in: Radigast, Brotton, Jedbridge, Trigol, and each of the Charn castles. A small battle force is still entrenched in the ruins of Ventnor, though their forces have diminished considerably since the battle with the devils and the rise in power of Lord Terard Duncombe II in the eastern regions of the County.

Following the signing of the Alliance with the Duergar, the Ventnor garrison has left the ruins and relocated at The Citadel.
