The Coruscant Guard was a corps of the Grand Army of the Republic during the Clone Wars composed of the elite and deadly clone shock troopers. Led by Clone Commander Fox, the Coruscant Guards served as a Security Force on Coruscant, the Galactic Republic capital world where their main focus was protecting government buildings and vital infrastructure. However, as the war progressed and the Senate Guard became increasingly ineffective and corrupt, the Coruscant Guard found itself often supplementing the Senate Guard and eventually fully taking over their function by serving as bodyguards for members of the Galactic Senate and the Supreme Chancellor. Shock troopers would also patrol the streets of Coruscant alongside the civilian police officers and GU-series Guardian police droids of the Coruscant Security Force, assisting them in pursuing suspects and in providing urban riot control. Coruscant Guards would also be responsible for guarding the Republic Judiciary Central Detention Center, conducting hostage rescue missions, serve as escorts for diplomatic missions, and perform military police functions.
