Blood Guard

"They're known as the Blood Guard for a reason. I'd tell you to be careful, but...that didn't help the last team I sent out."

- Suraya Hawthorne

The Blood Guard is an elite unit of the Red Legion. Described as Dominus Ghaul's "chosen" and would die for their leader, they often serve as commanders of operations throughout the Red War and can also be found serving as bodyguards to high-ranking Cabal officers. They can be identified by their heavy, all-red armor, which often features prominent horsehair-like crests.
