Imperial Watch at 20 000

The Imperial Watch is now at a strength of roughly 20,000 officers, of which 25% are believed to be female. This number is split between the Imperial Watch itself, the Imperial Verderers, the Imperial Engineers, the Imperial Office of Census and Excise, and the Aegis Sentry Guard. The Verderers of the Imperial Watch currently harbors the largest number of female officers, with roughly 3 in 5 Rangers being female. It is said that the female Rangers of the Imperial Verderers alone have done a great deal towards earning the acceptance of women within the Imperial Watch, with their skill with bow and arrow and their agility often surpassing that of their male counterparts.
