The Red Guard

Prince Paralansarr formed the Red Guard as a division specialising in domestic intelligence and security services. They act as his eyes and ears, spying on notable figures and gathering intel.

To join the organisation, a person must undergo specific surgery. Piino watches the procedure and remembers their body cavity. If any betray Paralansarr, Piino opens a portal and swiftly kills them.

The Red Guard listens to Piino’s portals that spread throughout the Dayani Empire. They monitor noble houses, crowd-filled inns and secret hideouts. Whenever a disturbance occurs, the Guard alerts Paralansarr and helps the prince handle issues before they reach Malkisaidek.

The members regularly blackmail opposing nobles. If disobedience persists, the aristocrat is soon found dead under suspicious circumstances.

Attire and Fighting Style

The Red Guard dons armour and coats in red and black. Similar to Paralansarr, they employ awl pikes and fight with minimal visible bloodshed while inflicting excessive internal bleeding. During battles, they spring up through portals, cause confusion in enemy ranks, and vanish as swiftly as they appear.

They are a really cool group. I assume they know what will happen if they betray the prince?

Thank you!   They are warned following the recruitment. After several didn't listen and died, not many betrayed since.
