Description[]

Armoured former palace guards who use ji polearms raided from their previous masters in the fight for the Great Peace.

Guardians of the Land have chosen the protection and pursuit of the people over the protection of their corrupt former masters. Once palace guards and bodyguards for the elite few, they have abandoned their posts for the Great Peace – but not before raiding their old warlord’s armoury! It is an irony that the armour and ji polearms they use to unseat powerful warlords and their lackeys were often paid for by the very same, and that the training they use to defeat the enemy was received during their time guarding them.
