Noghri Bodyguard

The Noghri bodyguards were a new tradition and group that developed after the race learnt of Leia Organa Solo's parentage. After that time, the Noghri became the dedicated protectors of Leia and her family with two such warriors always being nearby her, something she found somewhat frustrating and attempted to dissuade but this did not stop her vigilant defenders.

The Noghri bodyguards undergo extensive training as well as testing in order to determine which warriors gain the honor of becoming the guardians of the Mal'ary'ush, the daughter of Darth Vader. They would serve her and this would result on some of them being assigned to protect important people within the New Republic, something these warriors do so in order to prove themselves that they are worthy to be the protectors of Lady Vader. Such warriors considered their task a sacred duty which meant that they could not be bribed or blackmailed.

These warriors were trained in a wide variety of weapons and typically carried more than a few daggers; believing that their environment would provide the additional equipment when needed. However, the pride of these warriors were their blades which were a mark of of honor as well as excellent weapons for they were well balanced for hand-to-hand combat and could be thrown with skill in battle.

The first trained Noghri bodyguards were honored with their initial assignment to protect a key individual and though they were skilled, they had much to learn. As they gained experience, they would often be added into elite units and deployed for military strikes an example of which was seen when they scouted Ithor. Once these warriors had distinguished themselves in their duties, they would finally be given the honor of serving the Skywalker and Solo family.
