The Imperial Guard serves as the Empress's personal military, exacting her judgement on individuals and clans that have broken the laws of the land. It consists of people from all clans who protect the Empress at all times, and overseers who delegate her will.

[[folder:General]]
* BlingOfWar: Downplayed and justified. While the large capes attached to their armor would be a liability in battle, their armor is otherwise fairly practical. And more importantly, much of their work is political or ceremonial in nature.
* CadreOfForeignBodyguards: Downplayed. While they accept recruits from a great variety of clans, most of their membership are Vel'Sharen.
* HighlyConspicuousUniform: Justified. Their armor stands out, but as they serve to enact the Empress' will, they're meant to.
* HowTheMightyHaveFallen: They lost a great many of their number in the Nidraa'chal War and were [[spoiler:nearly destroyed in the District War]]. While efforts have been made in-story to rebuild it, the Guard is very obviously a shadow of its former glory.
* PurpleIsPowerful: While the Vel'Sharen typically use teal in their attire, the Imperial Guard use purple, highlighting their loyalty to the Empress.
* PraetorianGuard: Though the Empress is also the Illharess of the Vel'Sharen, the Imperial Guard serve the Empress specifically, not the clan as a whole.
* TheRemnant: Most of them [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=9805 fell defending the Dome]] in the closing days of the District War.

!! Nir'naya
One of Diva'ratrika's bodyguards. She was present with Mikilu in Chapter 1 during her disgrace at the Sharen sisters' party. Unlike Mikilu, she chose not to leave the Sharen and remained one of the Imperial bodyguards (the implication is that she was given Mikilu's old position.) Recently showed up in Chapter 41 after a long absence.
----
* AmbitionIsEvil: Possibly, since Sarv'swati tells her that she finally got her wish to be the head of the Imperial Guards, albeit [[spoiler:with a fake Empress]].
* ComeWithMeIfYouWantToLive: Chapter 45 makes it clear that [[spoiler:she was the one who showed up at the end of Chapter 44 to rescue Sarv'swati]].
* ConflictingLoyalty: Seems to be developing this between her loyalty for [[spoiler:the deceased]] Diva'ratrika and her daughters. Evidently retains some loyalty for Sarv'swati, as shown by her [[spoiler:rescuing Sarv'swati from the Council Dome at the end of Chapter 44]].
* FlechetteStorm: She's seen using [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=9162 mana controlled versions of these]].
* HeelRealization: Looks to be the case for her as of Chapter 30.
* IndulgentFantasySegue: She [[http://www.drowtales.com/mainarchive.php?sid=7670 imagines killing]] [[spoiler:Fake!Diva'ratrika]].
* SecretKeeper: She's one of the only people that knows for certain that [[spoiler:Diva'ratrika is dead]] though it's uncertain exactly when she found out.
* TheSpeechless: [[spoiler: Her tongue is cut out by the Sarghress torturers during her imprisonment, costing her her ability to speak.]]
* TokenMinority: Looks more drowolath than other Dutan'vir, if she is in fact one, [[spoiler: this was probably why the Sharen sisters thought that they could use her as their pawn]].
* TurnCoat: [[spoiler:She is implied to have betrayed the Empress's loyalists among the Imperial Guard in order to claim Miki'lu's position for herself.]]
* UnwittingPawn: [[spoiler:For the Sharen sisters' coup. She believed that she was staying loyal to Diva'ratrika by remaining behind, but it looks like now [[HeelRealization she is beginning to regret her actions]]]].
* WasItReallyWorthIt: She betrayed the old guard in order to claim Mikilu's position as their captain. But as a consequence, she is stuck with the dubious honour of being [[spoiler:the guard to a fake queen instead of her rightful empress]] and has been caught in the middle of the Sharen sisters' petty power struggles.
* YouHaveOutlivedYourUsefulness: [[spoiler:Threatened with this by Sarv'swati if she doesn't keep the fake!Diva'ratrika under control]].
