Established by the Lunars after they had disbanded the Pavis Survivors (who had fought on the 'wrong' side at Moonbroth), the Pavis Royal Guard is responsible for security in the Rubble.
Nominally commanded by Hargran the Dirty and comprised of followers from his old bandit gang and a few outlaws and soldiers of fortune it is also heavily stiffened with Lunar regulars, and the Lunars effectively report to their own lieutenants, who report to Jotaran Longsword.
The Pavis Royal Guard is based at Zebra Fort.
It consists of two branches:
- The Fort Guard, which garrisons Zebra Fort and the North Bridge, collecting tolls from those crossing the latter, which is the source of Hargran's wealth. They are all Hargran's men.
- The Zebra Riders who patrol Manside and the river, and provide escorts to the Real City and other Manside areas, and also further afield on official business, for example down to the Salt Mines. The Zebra Riders are about half Hargran's men, and half Lunar regulars.
