How to give your hero a walking path.

Hello, I'm using RPG Maker VX Ace.

I'm a new user, and I've tried as hard as I possibly can to do this on my own before resorting to asking here. I give up.

I need to know if it's possible to give your character a set movement path for an event. To help visualize what I want, I am trying to have my character escorted by guards through an area. It's not exactly fun to walk him myself. Ruins the scene if you know what I mean.  I understand how to set an npc's movement path, but I am just lost trying to figure out how to set one for my character, 

Thank you for your time. 

In the Set Move Route command (NOT the Autonomous Movement setting on an event), you can specify who the movement route applies to. Set up the movements for your PC and for the NPC guards the same way, but only make the LAST one (which will be the longest one, if one has more steps than the others) Wait for completion.

Thank you sir. You have solved my problem admirably. I feel a little stupid for not figuring that out on my own now that you've told me. 

I appreciate your help!
