Do we have any idea of the ranking system in the Guards, and the approximate ages that they'd be? All I can find is Guard, Captain, and Palace Guard, and information is sparse.

Nope no idea of the ranking system beyond the what is probably normal in terms of real life. Palace Guard is ranked the same like a City or Road Guard, it's just a different place and is considered preferred by many of Haven's City Guards as a 'plush' job, but really the only difference is what type of people they deal with. Ranks would be the same, i.e. a Captain of the Palace Guard is equally footed with a City Guard Captain.
Edit: Oh but if we need to create a system for IC use then we can, though we Mods will have to discuss the complexity etc. But it would be similar to near identical to what real life has I think. Maybe minus some of the middle rankings as unneccessary.

I see guards being ranked more like police than like army, which would mean not much more complicated than guard, regional commander (if appropriate), captain of the guard.

Something of that level is sort of what I had in mind Carla, but since I'm not overly familiar with military or the police the Mods will have to hash it out. I know there is more than 2 or 3 ranks, from mentions in the books, but I don't expect we'll go more than 4 or 5.
