Organization
The Flame Guard protected and enforced the law of Suldophor's ruling olanger, who was Daeranatha Dorluu as of the. They also paid and oversaw Suldophor's militia—the Swords of Suldolphor. The Flame Guard was commanded by a pair of grizzled veterans named Golordin Maerthringul and Jalasta Kelelder. Both held the rank of High Sword. The Flame Guard numbered 2,000 soldiers who were quartered in Elaph's Tower and Corondor's Tower in the city. A typical member of the Flame Guard fought from horseback in plate armor wielding a lance, sword, and crossbow.

The Flame Guard was also responsible for finding Suldophor's next olanger as decreed by Waukeen, which was a bit of a controversy given the aging state of Daeranatha and Waukeen's silence since the Time of Troubles.
