Enchancia Royal Guard

"For the kingdom we must fight,

for in us they place their trust.

For one and all,

We're standing tall!"

(unofficial anthem of the Enchancia Royal Guard)


This private sentinel is a member of the Enchancia Royal Guard, charged with protecting King Roland, Queen Miranda, and their three children Sofia, Amber, and James.


Enchancia appears to have three different guard companies: one in red uniforms, one in black uniforms, and one in yellow coats with hussar busbies.  Their different roles are unknown.  However, the Red company appears to be the closest to the royal family, protecting King Roland as he goes to the village shoemaker's, and guarding his new daughter Sofia on her journey to the palace.  Perhaps they are a small unit of internal palace guards.  

 

His uniform consists of a dark red coat with light red lapels and cuffs, liberally embellished with gold lace.  A white waistcoat, light blue breeches and red cap complete it.  It is possible that (like many 18th Century units) the Enchancia Royal Guards swap their boots for high gaiters when serving dismounted.


This private has already been blooded in action (http://redcoatsandruffles.blogspot.com/2020/09/saving-prince-adam-legends-of-high-seas.html).  He did not succeed in accomplishing anything besides actually firing his musket, (which is more than Mr. Brand can say).  But, he has received his baptism of fire.
