The Watersong Royal Guard is a group of military-like Raposa in Watersong whose goal is to protect the Raposa and enforce the law. There are two known divisions of the guard, one which works on the mainland, and one which works on Ex-Isle. These two groups swap where they work every month. Both the Watersong and Lavasteam Royal Guard have similar structures to the chain of command of a fire department.
Structure
Chief
The chief of the Watersong Royal Guard is the Ruler of Watersong. The Ruler's advisor can also take responsibilities of the Chief. The main responsibilities of the Chief include controlling pay, stationing, training, doing routine check-ins on Ex-Isle, along with all the duties of Ruler.
Deputy Chiefs
The Deputy Chiefs are two, high ranking members of the guard. The Deputies are typically directly appointed by the Chief, but they don't necessarily have to be members of the guard before their promoting. One Deputy resides over Operations, while the other resides over Engineering. The Deputy Chief of Operations is responsible for setting up training programs, handling the interviewing process, and stationing, among other roles. The Deputy Chief of Engineering is responsible for advancing technology in the guard, setting up training programs for defense and offence, and handling the interviewing process, among other roles
Specific Roles
Below the Deputy Chiefs, the ranks are divided into three shifts, and each shift works a different amount of time based on how skilled the members are and how long the members have been working with the guard. If the guard member works on Ex-Isle, then their off days off are spent in a section of the island that is separated from the exiles.
Ascending the chain of command, these three ranks are Lieutenants, Captains, and Battalion Chiefs. Lieutenants are responsible for supervising the basic levels, going on more dangerous calls, and knowing more complex skills than the basic levels. However, they are still required to do everything the basic level guards do. Captains are responsible for making administrative decisions for the active shift, speaking with the public, and being more professional than their subordinate, along with the responsibilities of Lieutenants and the basic levels. Battalion Chiefs are the highest ranking members that are active-duty, and their responsibilities include managing the guard below them, meeting with the Deputy Chiefs and Chief, and making sure everyone who is supposed to be on duty shows up to work, along with the responsibilities of the lower ranks.
On Ex-Isle, Shift A Battalion Chiefs have a more mayoral role, staying on-call 24/7, making announcements to the exiles and other guard, setting curfews, and managing attempted escapes. Shift B and C Battalion Chiefs have similar duties, but are functionally just more experienced Captains. The lower Battalion Chiefs can be promoted to Shift A in the event of death or exile of said Chief, as seen with Terra.
Basic Levels
The basic levels of the guard are simply called Guards and Probies. These members are responsible for carrying out the duties given to them by superiors, along with managing the scenes they are called to. Probies are the newest recruits of the guard, and are undergoing on site training on both Ex-Isle and the mainland. After this training, they are promoted to Guards.
Members
| Name | Rank | Division | Notes | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rose | Chief | N/A | Rose, much like Miney, took a very hands-off approach to the guard, although she did reform the mainland guard to be a small group of her trusted friends. This is the only known instance of the guard being replaced by another group. | |
| Butler | Deputy Chief of Operations | N/A | Instead of acting as a Chief, Butler was appointed to be a Deputy Chief by Rose. He takes his role very seriously, talking with the Battalion Chiefs directly and dispatching the mainland guard to certain events, such as sending them to apprehend Galileo. | |
| Leopold | Mainland Guard | Watersong | Leopold is one of Rose's trusted friends, and he lead the group during Galileo and Eeny's visit. He is the only known member of the mainland guard to be appointed after Salem's attack. | |
| Antoinette | Mainland Guard | Watersong | Antoinette is one of Rose's trusted friends, and she was appointed to the guard before Salem's attack. | |
| Desiree | Mainland Guard | Watersong | Desiree is one of Rose's trusted friends, and she was appointed to the guard before Salem's attack. | |
| Francois | Mainland Guard | Watersong | Francois is one of Rose's trusted friends, and she was appointed to the guard before Salem's attack. | |
| Robespierre | Mainland Guard | Watersong | Robespierre is one of Rose's trusted friends, and she was appointed to the guard before Salem's attack. | |
| Karat | Shift B Battalion Chief | Ex-Isle | Not much is known about Karat's time as a Battalion Chief, as they were kidnapped and replaced by an Ameba. After Salem's attack on the island, they were one of the many Raposa to be influenced by Allight. | |
| Sigil | Captain | Ex-Isle | Not much is known about Sigil's time as a Captain, as they were one of the first guards to be kidnapped and replaced by an Ameba. After Salem's attack on the island, they were one of the many Raposa to be influenced by Allight. | |
| Juliette | Guard | Ex-Isle | Not much is known about Juliette, but it is known that she had just become a Guard when Salem kidnapped her and replaced her with an Ameba. After Salem's attack on the island, they were one of the many Raposa to be influenced by Allight. |
Former Members
| Name | Rank | Division | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Elodie | Shift A Battalion Chief | Ex-Isle | Elodie was more neutral than the other two known Shift A Battalion Chiefs, although she was harsh with Raposa she did not know or care for. After watching the exiles and guards be interviewed by Salem, she grew suspicious of her job. She watched Robigo get kidnapped, and she fought against Wilfre when he attacked. After the attack, but before Allight was released, she left Ex-Isle on Baki Beard's Revenge. |
