General Information
Headquarters

Ba Sing Se

Affiliation

Earth Kingdom

Purpose

To Protect the Earth King.

The Royal Earthbender Guards of Ba Sing Se, known commonly as the King's Guards, are Earthbender warriors within the Earth Kingdom and are affiliated with neither the Dai Li nor the military. They serve as personal protectors of the Earth King. There seem to be hundreds of them guarding the Royal Palace. They have also been seen as the gate keepers of the outer and inner walls of Ba Sing Se, and could also serve as guards in important events as shown in "The Drill" and in "City of Walls and Secrets". They sport a uniform different from a normal Earth Kingdom soldier, wearing dark green armor with a green feather at the top of the helmet. They are also seen in the episode "The Earth King", trying to prevent Aang and his group from reaching the Earth King. Later, some follow him around when he tours around the city along with Aang and his group. The guards use specialized surface-to-surface rocks against invaders approaching on foot, but the projectiles are displayed to be able to also serve as surface to air rocks against airborne intruders.
