The Oportian Home Guard (Gardes Oportien) is the official military and police reserve service of the Oportian Security Forces. Established shortly after the formation of Oportia, the Home Guard serves as a critical component of the nation's defense and emergency response structure. With its primary role being the protection and support of the Oportian populace during times of crisis, the Home Guard maintains a robust presence across the country, ready to mobilize for a variety of contingencies ranging from natural disasters to national security threats.
