Since its formation, the Ves Watch was known for its defense of the Republic and its ideologies, often holding trials for criminals and wrongdoers. With the death of Prince Alfred Myre, the guardforce has seen numerous changes and was eventually replaced by the Beet Boys, the Drumm brothers' personal levy. After the failed Drumm coup of 1723, the Beet Boys were all branded enemies of the Republic and banished. In their stead, Prince-Procurate Helton Helvets hired the Company of Caer Bann who helped drive out the last remnants of the Beet boys and eliminate their threat by 1724. Since then, the Company of Caer Bann has been the official guardforce of Ves, with its commanders beginning to invest in state politics, and even rising to the ranks of the Patriciate.
