Stats for a Melnibonean royal guard

So in a campaign I run Prince Yyrkoon is around being a general git at people and has some royal guards with him, I can't find any stats for Melnibonean's that aren't named characters printed.

So I was wondering if anyone had done generic stats for their campaign that they wouldn't mind sharing? Guards, captains, soldiers, that type of thing. Or pointing out any stats that are printed that I have missed.

Many thanks
 
You could probably use those for Dyvim Slorm (p180) - just drop the Heroic abilities (and give them a Sword style so they can actually use the listed weapons!)

:D
 
I'm not completely sure, but I believe that the Royal Guard may be 'The Silent Guard'. They are half Melnibonean slaves. They are also eunuchs and have had their tongues removed(hence the name). They are renowned as archers and wield bone bows and shortswords and wear what could best be described as leather armour/fetish gear. I would probably make their combat skills around 90%.
Yrkoon's guards, like Cymoril's, are likely to be lesser members of his own household(possibly half Menibonean offspring amongst them). I would probably have them in Melnibonean Half armour and give them the Noble House fighting style. All combat skills in or around 90% as well.
I have the old Chaosium Melnibone supplement which gives stats for Imperial Guard and Lancers(fancy names for what are basically the regular army) as well. There are also the Eagle Guard who would now be pacted to Fileet and form a quasi military police force.
Twinned 1H battle axes seem to be the Imperial Guards weapons of choice. I would give them weapon skills in or around 75% and think that they might possibly be half Melniboneans, perhaps officered by pure bloods.
 
Sorry I can't help, but send me a PM with your email adress and I'll send you an EXCEL spreadsheet complete with some NPC's. I have some mercenary guard stats includedas well as some other 'villains'.
