Palace Guard (Naboo)/Legends



The Palace Guard was a division of the Royal Naboo Security Forces based on the planet Naboo. Palace Guards were commonly stationed in and around the Royal Palace of Theed.

The Palace Guard served as bodyguards for the ruling monarch and their court, though they also served important figures such as the system's Senator, and were known to escort the representative to Coruscant. Unlike the Security Guard, this corps was largely comprised of dedicated, experienced soldiers who had seen combat off-world. Many Palace Guards saw service with the Sector Rangers or various planetary militia in the Outer Rim Territories.

These soldiers were fiercely loyal to their ruler, and, though few in number, formed the backbone of the Royal Security Forces. As of 32 BBY, one hundred and fifty soldiers comprised the Palace Guard. Commonly, they worked on average twenty standard hours a week and remained with the unit for five to ten years each. Though their training was somewhat below galactic standard, the Palace Guards made up for it with zealous dedication to duty.
