The Kingsguard, also known poetically as the White Swords[2] or white cloaks,[3] are the royal bodyguards of the Iron Throne. Regarded as the finest knights in the Seven Kingdoms,[4][5] they are sworn to protect their king and the royal family with their own lives, to obey his commands, and to keep his secrets.[6] The Kingsugard are sworn for life and are forbidden from owning land, taking a wife, or fathering children,[7] although they can have non-hereditary commands, such as being warden[8] or Hand of the King.[3]
Some monarchs, such as Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen (129 AC-130 AC), have operated with a Queensguard instead of a Kingsguard.

Customs
Duties
The Kingsguard is composed of seven men,[4] all of them sworn knights.[9] A Kingsguard knight serves for life,[10][11] regardless of age or any physical or mental ailments.[12] When an invalid Kingsguard knight is incapable of performing his duties, they are taken up by his sworn brothers.[13] The knights of the Kingsguard are forbidden to marry, father children, and to hold land.[14] Regardless, the White Swords may retain or be granted certain titles. Aemon Targaryen and Lewyn Martell continued to use the style of "prince",[4][9] while Lords Commander Ryam Redwyne and Criston Cole have also acted as Hand of the King.[15][16][17][3]
The first duty of the Kingsguard is defending the king from harm. Sworn to obey the king's commands, to keep his secrets, to counsel him when requested and to keep silent when not, and to defend his name and honor.[6] The king can decide to extend the protection offered by the Kingsguard to others. Some kings have chosen to extend this protection to their wives, children, and other relatives, and some have even chosen to grant this protection to their lovers, mistresses, and bastards.[6]
In order to protect the king and the royal family night and day, the seven-man Kingsguard must rely to some degree on others. Prince Joffrey Baratheon has Sandor Clegane as his sworn shield,[18] other knights are trusted with the king's security when the entire Kingsguard meets in White Sword Tower,[19] and the queen may be guarded by household knights (e.g., Queen Cersei Lannister, who is protected by Vylarr and his red cloaks).[20]
The Lord Commander of the Kingsguard serves on the king's small council.[21] When the small council is in session, one of the Kingsguard always stands guard outside the council chambers, while another is usually posted at the end of the bridge into Maegor's Holdfast.[22][23]
Equipment
The Kingsguard wear all white cloaks and intricate suits of white enameled scales, their fastenings for breastplate and other pieces made of silver.[24][9] They alone bear the right to carry a pure white unemblazoned shield.[2] Their white armor has little decoration, although some members wear decorative brooches or gaudy helms.[25][26][27] According to a semi-canon source, the Kingsguard's standard depicts seven silver swords encircling a golden crown.[1]
Appointments
The rite for making a new member of the White Swords can vary. In common there seems to be the fact that it is a solemn and formal event, in which the knight kneels as he makes his vows before the king, and he receives the white cloak of the Kingsguard from the Hand of the King or the Lord Commander himself.[28][29] The Lord Commander is always chosen by the king, with seniority and ability only playing parts in the decision.[30] Also the Lord Commander is generally chosen from the existing pool of the Kingsguard.
White Book
The white cloaks' uninterrupted history since its creation during the reign of King Aegon I Targaryen is recorded in the White Book, formally named The Book of the Brothers. The White Book is kept in the White Sword Tower, the tower of the Red Keep in King's Landing which is home to the Kingsguard. Every knight who has ever served in the Kingsguard has a page in the book, on which his deeds are recorded. The Lord Commander of the Kingsguard is tasked with keeping the entries up to date, while from the Great Sept of Baelor septons come three times a year to add heraldic drawings and illuminations.[19]
History
The Kingsguard was founded during the reign of the first Targaryen king on the Iron Throne, Aegon the Conqueror. The first Kingsguard was created at the suggestion of Visenya Targaryen, after a Dornish assassination attempt on Aegon and herself in the streets of King's Landing in 10 AC. She self-consciously modeled the Kingsguard vows of holding no lands or title on the ancient vows of the Night's Watch.[31]
When Prince Jaehaerys Targaryen put forth his claim to the Iron Throne, two Kingsguard of the reigning King Maegor I Targaryen abandoned him.[32] According to some, Maegor was killed by a member of the Kingsguard who could no longer abide his tyranny.[33]
During the Dance of the Dragons, the Kingsguard split between knights serving King Aegon II Targaryen and Queensguard serving Queen Rhaenyra Targaryen.[3]
A hedge knight, Ser Duncan the Tall,[34] rose to become Lord Commander for King Aegon V Targaryen.[19]
During Robert's Rebellion, Jonothor Darry and Lewyn Martell were killed during the battle of the Trident, while Arthur Dayne, Oswell Whent, and Lord Commander Gerold Hightower died in combat at the tower of joy. Jaime Lannister slew his charge, King Aerys II Targaryen, during the sack of King's Landing, earning himself the "Kingslayer" sobriquet. The new king, Robert I Baratheon, allowed Jaime to remain in the Kingsguard and elevated the other surviving member of the Mad King's white cloaks, Ser Barristan Selmy, to the position of Lord Commander.
