Knights of the Gemguard

The Knights of the Gemguard are a unit unique to Silmiran, and are generally responsible for the protection of the Duchy, and the ruling family. Mimicking the Knights of the Griffon, the Gemguard ride Hippogriffs instead; they follow a similar structure to the Griffon Knights, and only a knight can join. They fight first and foremost for the Dukes and Duchesses of Silmiran, though they serve the King if commanded. They mainly act as bodyguards, when not at war, and ceremonial flights and jousts are often performed by them at public fairs.
