The '''Shirekeep City Guard''' is the police force responsible for law enforcement in the [[Shireroth|Shirithian]] capital city of [[Shirekeep]]. The City Guard was formed as a union of local militias and police forces by [[Jeremy Archer|Captain Jeremy Archer]] in 1625 [[AN]] during the reign of [[Kaiser Daniel III]]. The Shirekeep City Guard has its headquarters at Shirekeep Yard, a square in the Old Town of the capital. The City Guard is lead by the Captain-General. Current Captain-General of the Guard is Reginald Pritchard.<br />
<br />
==History==<br />
The Shirithian captial has known a long history of diverse forces of policing, who were often at odds with each other. Notably the Garda, the Cudgellers and private forces serving whoever was rich enough to pay them. Captain Jeremy Archer, then head of investigation of the Garda, noticed that the lack of communication and coherence between the different forces and sought to unite them. With the assistance of [[Jacob Darylion-Verion|Steward Jacob Daylion-Verion]], this effort succeeded, leading to the formation of the Shirekeep City Guard, with Jeremy Archer becoming the first Captain of the Guard. [[File:JA.jpg|thumb|190px|left|Captain Jeremy Archer, founder of the Shirekeep City Guard]]<br />
In the year 1644, the City Guard played a crucial role in the coup against [[Kaiser Dominus Tarjeisson]]. The [[Office of Bounties and Factorage]], lead by one of the key conspirators against the Kaiser, [[Ludovic Verion]], bribed the command of the Guard. A sum of three million erb was paid to several officers to switch sides, and compromising pictures against certain officers were used to assure their loyalty to the conspirators, and to the new Kaiser, [[Tokaray Al-Osman]]. The City Guard was crucian in winning the innitial fight near the Golden Gate of [[Raynor's Keep]]. The Guardsmen opened fire on the loyalist sentinels in what is known as the [[Oustfest Massacre]]. This allowed the conspirators to capture the Kaiser and to carry out their plans. In the wake of the coup, Vice-Captain Harwin Turnip was named Captain of the City Guard, and former Captain Archer, who did not play an important role in the events, was downgraded to Captain of Investigations.<br />
<br />
==Branches of Operation==<br />
===Cudgellers===<br />
Cudgellers are law enforcement officers, trained after the fashion of the Corps of Gentlemen-at-Cudgels, the police force of the Elwynnese Union. As such they specialise in crowd control and physical deterrence over investigative detective work and the finer points of community policing. Each [[Shirekeep#Center|district]] of the city has a Cudgeller's Guild.<br />
<br />
===Bureau of Detection and Investigation===<br />
The Bureau of Detection and Investigation (often called "Archer's Sleuths") has as its primary target to investigate criminal cases within the boundaries of Shirekeep. The Bureau is known for its advanced and groundbreaking investigative methods, such as the use of forensic science and advanced logical reasoning to solve cases. Some high-profile cases that have grasped the interest of the public and the sensational press are the case of the one-eyed Safir; the case of the Three Golden Scott's and the case of the Floating Cat.<br />

===Special Branch===<br />
The Special Branch was formed following a suicide bomb attack on the Landsraad in xxxx ASC, its overriding priority is to keep the public safe and to disrupt terrorist related activity in the [[Imperial County]] and [[Shirekeep]] by:<br />
<br />
*Detecting, investigating and preventing terrorist threats and networks.<br />
*Working with partner agencies to acquire and use intelligence and evidence about terrorism and extremism.<br />
*Engaging, building and maintaining working relationships with the Districts of Shirekeep, local communities, Imperial and State partners to better understand their *needs and to use their expertise and experience in jointly combating the terrorist threat.<br />
*Working with communities, partners, institutions, groups and other agencies providing advice and support to tackle the ideologies that drive [[Catologism]] and other forms of violent extremism.<br />
*Supporting, working and collaborating with the law enforcement agencies of the City, the Imperial Dominions and the Imperial States.<br />
<br />
===Special Assignments Squad===<br />
The Special Assignments Squad (SAS), is a paramilitary gendarmerie force focused on tactical law enforcement, crowd control, riot control, domestic counter-terrorism, VIP protection, patrol and checkpoint duties.<br />
<br />
Members of the SAS are required to achieve a high level of fitness and expertise in small arms and hand-to-hand combat. Males between the ages of twenty-two and thirty who have completed military service in the [[Imperial Forces]] can apply to join the SAS. The application includes medical and psychological tests, and tests of speed and fitness. The initial training lasts for four months. The applicants are extensively trained in the use of different weaponry and close combat, and are also trained to follow orders at any cost. Special emphasis is put on urban combat and the entering and clearing of buildings. The training also includes legal training. The application procedure closes with a final test, where the applicant has to fight three to five trained members of the SAS by hand wearing boxing gloves. Fewer than one in five applicants pass and are selected to join.<br />
<br />
==Leadership==<br />
<br />
From its conception, the City Guard was led by Jeremy Archer, the Captain of the Guard. Prior to the Oustfest massacre, Archer was replaced by former commander of the SAS Harwin Turnip. After the dubious role of the City Guard came to light when the Oustfest uprising was investigated, Turnip was removed from office, with Archer, who had been recently named Warden of the Imperial Constabulary, taking command again. Following the new Shirekeep City Charter, the head of the Guard received the title of Captain-General, with Reginald Pritchard being named into this position.<br />
