Crimson Guard

The Crimson Guard were, during the Galactic Civil War, a small group of ruthless individuals whom did Emperor Palpatine's personal bidding. Their leader, Sergeant Cadden Blackthorne, had founded the organization after working his way up in the Empire's ranks. The group was stationed to the east of Keren, Naboo, for half of the Galactic Civil War. Their members wore a full suit of crimson Composite Armor into battle. Cadden's armor was known to fancy the Imperial symbol, overlayed by the Crimson Guard's symbol, on the chestplate.

After Cadden resigned from the Empire, the Crimson Guard was tasked with the sole responsibility of hunting down their former leader. However, the organization eventually was disbanded, in favor of more cost-effective substitutes within the Empire's elite stormtrooper division, and eventually the members either disappeared, resigned their ranks and affiliation with the Crimson Guard completely, or died off.

Cadden is believed to be the last of this fallen group of warriors.
