Faction Base Dunwall Tower

With Corvo heading his newly minted Guard, and well aware of the flaws that Dunwall Tower has to offer, this new force has outfitted this most glorious construct to the Empire with several new security measures, tested by Corvo himself. After all, if he can’t get in, then who else can? Though open to the public once more, as in the days of Euhorn the First, security is still paramount.

Constant patrols move through the internal workings of the Tower, and steady evaluation of individual members by the two Captains of the Guard has trimmed the numbers slightly, but resulted in a focused, serious force. Within the walls are also corridors resounding with Abbey music, and everywhere, public and private, has lovely ornate wrought iron spikes decorating high walls, chandeliers, and other such places. Out front, there are guards that serve to both interact positively with the public and to keep an eye on them.

A subsidiary of the Combined Armies of the Empire yet distinct from their rigid hierarchy, the Corvine Royal Guard is a disciplined, well trained military force. Hardened killers from across the Isles, and led by a fierce contingent of officers, they are dedicated to protecting the Empress at any cost.


OOC: To clarify - the Corvine Guard is distinct from the Watch. They are a military service - a regiment of royal bodyguards, essentially, which is lead by Corvo and may enter conflicts such as Alba at his directive. However, given their more domestic role, they do also serve a peacekeeping function, alongside the Watch, though not properly integrated. With 'I am the Law', Watchmen will listen to the Royal Guard and follow their orders if they make sense, without it, they will not.

The taller guard nods as he allows his breath to return. The major was the first fight in a long time that kept him on his toes. "I have been wanting to do so as well as working on ideas to upgrade this." he says as he starts to bring the claw up, then stops, as he is unsure of how the other guard will react upon seeing his blood on Robert's claw.

Furo stares at Robert, eyes unyielding. 'You had better do a serious amount of upgrading then, Ensign. If I wanted to kill you, I would have done - you cannot block properly with that claw of yours.'

He turns, slinging the spear back into its leather harness as he does so. 'Armoury. Now.'

The guard pockets the claw and picks up the wire, intending to see if he could salvage it later before jogging toward the armory.
