The Royal Guards of the 501st Legion would like to remove their helmets and lower their Forcepikes in honor of a fallen member, Rob Trotman, TR-7080 "Little Red", also known to us as "Befallen". He was a member of the Florida Garrison Makaze Squad and a great friend and member of the Legion. He will be missed dearly.

Welcome to the website of the Sovereign Protectors, the official detachment of Imperial Royal Guards costumers in the 501st Legion.

This detachment serves as a resource for members and prospective members of the 501st Legion to research and create their own screen-accurate Royal Guard costume from the Star Wars films, video games, and expanded universe (EU).

We recommend that you join our forums accessible from the links above to partake fully in what our community has to offer.

We look forward to you joining our ranks and at our sides as we continue to protect and serve our Emperor!
