The Iotran Guard was a defense force within the InterGalactic Banking Clan's Collections and Security Division, placed under the command of Captain Tost. Assisted by IG-100 MagnaGuards, they were assigned to safeguard the corporation's collection of vault worlds. After the Clone Wars[1]—fought between 22 BBY and 19 BBY[2]—erupted, the Iotran Guard joined with the Confederacy of Independent Systems in their fight against the Galactic Republic, absorbed alongside their captain into the Separatist Droid Army.[1] The guard shared its name with the Iotran species.[3]
