Also known as the Emperor's Royal Guard, members of this elite squad, "the best of the best", were handpicked by Emperor Palpatine himself to protect him at the cost of their lives, some of whom were Force-sensitives trained in the Dark side. Easily recognizable because of their scarlet robes and helmet, the Imperial Royal Guards' weapon of choice was the force pike. They were the Men in Red before Will Smith and Tommy Lee Jones's MIB. Nilo Rodis, a Filipino-American costume designer is credited as the man who created the costume concepts of the Imperial Royal Guards for SW Episode VI - Return of the Jedi
