| The Regalian Guard, unofficially referred to as the Bluesteel Order due to their colors and past affiliations, is the rotating-duty organization that is responsible for law enforcement on the Regalian Capital City, as well as the Aristocratic Realms beyond to a degree. The Regalian Guard contains large numbers of soldiers from the Mark armies of Regalia, with various layers of authority. Formally speaking, the Regalian Guard is led by the Landesgericht Inspector. This individual both personally approved and ejects Guards for either misbehaving or breaking the law, but also has authority over the rank structure of the Regalian Guard. Furthermore however, the Landesgericht Inspector also shares authority with the Lieutenant-Generals of the Regalian Mark Armies, though only over the troops of their own respective Mark. The Regalian Guard is furthermore supplemented by a guard force called the Crown Protectors, which is entirely made up of Nobility.

| ==Armaments==
| |
| [[File:Armorbluesteel.png|300px|thumb|right|Bluesteel Armaments]]
| |
| The Regalian Guards are armed in so called semi-mail, a combination of half plates (usually localized to the chest, forearms, lower legs and waist), supported with a scale armor shirt and coat. Helmets are not always mandatory, while the armor often uses dark blue and black tone cloth to decorate it and make the guards visible in the street. The reason why they are unofficially called the Bluesteel Guards aside from past associations, is because all guards are armed with a Bluesteel Sword which is issued by the Regalian Guard Force. These weapons and armor don't belong to the individual soldiers, rather, they are returned to the barracks as soon as the Guard is fired or leaves duty. Guards can, in certain situations, also make use of a variety of military hardware when their Landesgericht Inspector approves of it. This includes siege crossbows for the removal of dangerous creatures, handheld battering rams for doors and gates, and in some extreme cases, the Regalian Guards operate the siege engines that are on top of the city walls to defend the city. Guards and Crown Protectors alike must always wear their signature armor, otherwise their actions are illegal if they violate state law (while on duty, Guards may be able to ignore some State laws in order to arrest or seize a criminal)

| ==OOC Notes==
| |
| * When one is a Guard or Crown Protector, and has an alternative character which is a criminal that is actively being chased by the guard, the guard character will be forcibly ejected from the Guard force for conflicts of interest. This is only valid for criminals that are actively engaged in criminal conduct to the knowledge of the guard, as well as mass-criminals and mass-terrorists or ongoing crime plot lines.
| |
| * A specific set of Minecraft Armor is issued to regular Bluesteel Guards. Crown Protectors however will have a specific unique set of armor skinned for them, meaning they should endeavor to wear this skin when they are on duty. Using MPM to adjust the skin is not permitted, it has to be visible to everyone. This skin will feature heavy armor, but will have a single sash around the waist which can be customized to family colors or personal preferences.
| |
| * All Guards need to be approved by the Inspector. Even the Crown Protectors (when they want to join the Guard) must go through the Inspector even though their IC approval is not necessary. This must happen, because every guard's existence must be recorded and they must be added to the Skype chat.
| |
| * Applications for the Regalian Guard are handled on the Forums for ease of reference. The thread is a sticky in the Roleplay Families section.
| |
| * In order to apply to become a Crown Protector, contact the Landesgericht Inspector OOC to inform them of your wish. You will then be added to the relevant communication lines and the person portraying the Landesgericht Inspector will give you a link to the relevant skin to use when on-duty.
| |
| * Those who have government ranks elsewhere in the Empire cannot hold any title in the city Guard whatsoever with the sole exception of the Consul Reichsrat.
| |
| | |
| ==Trivia==
| |
| * While the Regalian Violet Order has been through numerous reforms, this current system is actually an old call back to the beginning of Alexander the First's rule.
| |
| * The Military fully expects incompetent nobility to start filling the ranks of the City Guard, much to the dismay of the common Guards who are actually competent and trained.
| |
| * Even though in theory the Lieutenant-General of the Kaisermark should have authority over the guard as military forces within their jurisdiction, however they don't.
