former Bodyguard cards

Bodyguard is an obsolete job. A bodyguard is a person or group of persons employed to guard an individual, often a high official or VIP, from bodily harm.

Description

Cards printed with the class Bodyguard were Veteran Bodyguard from Alpha, Martyrs of Korlis from Antiquities and Anaba Bodyguard from Homelands. In the Grand Creature Type Update, the class was obsoleted, and they were changed to Human and Minotaur respectively. Later cards like Rhox Bodyguard from Conflux were always Soldiers or Clerics.
