Cloud City Guard

Star Wars

Bespin Guards were security personnel employed by the Cloud City administration on Bespin, a gas giant in the Star Wars galaxy. Often depicted in orange uniforms, these guards were responsible for maintaining order and enforcing the laws established by Baron Administrator Lando Calrissian.

Their duties ranged from patrolling the city's promenade to operating security checkpoints and responding to disturbances. Bespin Guards utilized blaster pistols and possessed moderate combat skills, although their training and equipment were not comparable to the elite forces of the Empire.

Perhaps the most memorable appearance of the Bespin Guards is in *The Empire Strikes Back*, when they initially welcome Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Leia Organa, and Chewbacca to Cloud City. However, the group is betrayed, and the Bespin Guards, caught in the middle, are ultimately forced to aid in the capture of Han Solo by Darth Vader.

While not individually named or extensively developed as characters, the Bespin Guards represent a vital element of Cloud City's infrastructure, embodying the appearance of order and civility in a complex and ultimately compromised environment.
