In the fictional Star Wars, the Coruscant Guards are a specialized branch of the Imperial Stormtroopers that serve as law enforcers in Coruscant and some Core Worlds . They wear lightweight heavily-padded crimson and black armour which provides protection against physical attacks. The armour's sophisticated battle helm allows the stormtrooper to work in total darkness, as well as containing a comlink scrambler for communication with fellow personnel. A unit commander's helmet includes a voice activated heads-up display which shows the positions of other Coruscant Guards. Under Palpatine's issue of martial law, the Coruscant Guards were empowered to search a building or home and detain any suspected enemies. Their weapons are the Merr-Sonn taser staves and the Merr-Sonn e-ss Suppressor riot rifle.
