The Gallovian Royal Guard are an Order created by the Prince Electorate of the Farlands, to act as a shield for the Royal House Howlester and the Prince Elect himself. They are loyal to the Sovereign Princeship and comprised of the most loyal, faithful and strongest men and women to reside within the Crown Isle and Gallovia.
Gallovian Royal Guards are known for their obedience to the Prince Sovereign and the House Howlester, though no Life Oath is ever sworn it is expected of the Royal Guards that where a Howlester's life is threatened, their life be put on the line in said Howlester's place, to protect the Royal Family's lives, their honour and their integrity.

♛ The Lord Commander -
Alexander Dunmore.
♙ The Duties of the Lord Commander are vast, ensuring the running of the Gallovian Royal Guard and keeping recruitment steady. The Lord Commander assigns rankings within the Royal Guard and ensures that training sessions are held bi-weekly if not weekly.​

♛ The Commander General -
Abelhard Latimer.
♙ The Duties of the Commander General are perhaps not as vast as that of the Lord Commander's duties, however they are tasked with overseeing the training of their men, regular inspections as to how the men behave on and off duty and ensuring their men do not break the law.​

♛ The Master of Arms -
Julius Peirgarten.
♙ The Duties of the Master of Arms are simple, train the men to the best of their abilities. The Master of Arms is perhaps what could be seen as an officer within the Royal Guard, holding power over the regular Guardsmen in most circumstances.​

♛ Lieutenants -
Thaddeus Jude.
♙ Two individuals tasked with regular inspections of conduct and hand picked by the Commanders for certain roles within the Royal Guard. Each will be given a task to fulfil over the duration of their period within the Royal Guard and will be rewarded for fulfilling said duties.​

♛ Gallovian Royal Guards -
Lysander Blackwood.
William Arnyn.
Haie'ge Le'ge'en.

♙ All members of the Royal Guard are tasked with the defense of the Howlester Family, the Royal Guards are the pillars that hold up the order in effect. Their duties are various and not all of them pretty, though their main directive is to defend House Howlester and the Prince Electorate at all costs.

Lord Commander Dunmore,

I write this letter to express my interest in joining the Gallovian Royal Guard. I wish to expand my horizons, and learn skills that may serve me in the future. I have come to understand that if I am to lead one day, I need to learn what it means to follow. The guard force responsible for protecting the Howlesters was a natural choice, as I have had dealings with them in the past.

I hope this finds you well,

Greetings
Lord Commander Dunmore,

It has come to my attention that I need a better job. I have heard a lot of good things about your guard and was told by a few people I should apply. I have been raised by worriers and I have quite the skill set in Eastern marshal arts, not to mention I'm pretty quick with a blade. I want to help out as best I can.

I am going to deny this application on the grounds of you being inexperienced, however I would fully suggest applying for the Violet Order or another House Guard. Without a decent amount of experience I cannot accept, however once you've got references in the field of House Guards and whatnot please apply again, as I'd be happy to take on any decent CRP'er.
