Traditionally, the Queen's Guard is made up of unbelted fighters in the kingdom. This tradition is a holdover from when we were part of the West. Usually, it is the best fighters among the unbelted ranks but can also include fighters that the queen deserving of the honor even though they might not be the top rank of unbelted fighters. In the West, the Queens guard used to have to meet a group of knights in a melee at least once during each reign. Usually the queen will ask a knight to preside as a Knight councillor over the guard. This is seperate from the Captain who is usually an unbelted that that been on more than one retinue.
