This article is about the imperial guard of Asgarnia. For other uses, see Imperial Guard (disambiguation).
Highly trained and well-organised, the Imperial Guard, based in the town of Burthorpe, are Asgarnia's main defence against marauding trolls who live in the northern mountains. This is done under the management of Prince Anlaf, heir to the throne of Asgarnia.
The Imperial Guard view the White Knights of Falador as a rival military force in Asgarnia and have not been happy about the knights filling the vacuum left by King Vallance's illness. The Guard question Sir Amik Varze's intentions, and are aware that his knights control the nation's treasury.
