A former elite and brutal military unit created by Ghazar the Black, Warlord of the south of The Beastfolk Heartlands from his old street gang. Originally, they served as a mercenary force, but when Ghazar came to power they acted as a personal bodyguard and elite retinue.
Following the defection of Seth al-Rawaz and collapse of the Black Reign into civil war, they were defeated and slain almost to a man in a monumental last stand at Duxanos. Their legacy is almost as formidable and loathsome as Ghazar's, and those few survivors are still regarded as wanted criminals in much of the Heartlands.
