Overview

On the Ark, for almost a century, the Guard was in charge of law enforcement and security. Their duties included surprise inspections of living quarters, standing watch during Council meetings, and pushing the button to float people charged with capital crimes. Guard Cadets were responsible for chaperoning public gatherings such as dances. Guards were normally equipped with shock batons.

On the ground, after the Ark came down, the Guard's duties expanded to include protecting Sky People from outside threats, going on scouting missions, securing Arkadia's perimeter, and accompanying Sky People outside Arkadia's fence. The Guard were the only individuals allowed to carry firearms. Once the alliance between the Coalition and Sky People was established, the Guard worked alongside the Grounder warriors during the Mount Weather War, providing numerous technology and resources they lacked such as medicine, firearms, bombs, and tone generators.
