The Outside Guard tends the outer door of the council building, admitting all visitors to the inner door.   The Outside Guard is also charged with the security of the Council Chamber and also assists the Warden in meeting the duties of his Office. 

The Outside Guard's jewel, Crossed Axes and a Key hung from a white ribbon, represent their power as sentries at the door. Their robes are gray with black trim and yoke.   The cincture is also black with silver fringe.
