The Nauzica Brigade was the escort and personal force of the Holy Orenian Emperor during the Fifth Empire, protecting both the Emperor and the Imperial Family. Created in 1487 by the Horen-scion Charles Henry Horen and the bastard general Frederick ver de Linde, the Nauzica Brigade, or Nauzicans for short, existed for little more than a century, fighting in nearly every war of the Johannian Emperors till the fall of the Empire in 1595.
Its members were known simply as Nauzicans, and wore an easily identifiable skull badge upon their coat or sash.
