The Mage's Sword

A private army that serves at the behest of Magister Magnomir, the Mage's Sword serves as auxillary forces to the nation's armies.

A company is 102 individuals led by a Lieutenant, broken down into 6 squads. Each squad consists of 5 Elite Archers, 10 Elite Soldiers, and 1 Cleric, or sometimes an Adept, as well as 1 wizard who's spells tend towards evocation magic. Frequently, the squads will have some sort of consumable magical items on hand, either potions, scrolls, or rarely a wand.


Snow Company
Ken-Lu "The Shiver" Aritole
LN Human Magus 3 (Staff Magus)
Manager - Lieutenant

A half Tian man, Ken-Lu is a battle-minded magus, with an eye for scrutinizing the smallest flaw in a plan. He has a penchant for cold based magic and the martial preference for the quarterstaff. He is ruthlessly efficient in leading his military forces, Snow Company and demands discipline from every troop.

Snow Company uses straight forward tactics - hit the enemy hard, and fast. They blast enemies with cold magic, and hack them to bits.

Worg Company


Llanowar Evenkeen
CG Elf Fighter 3rd [Eldritch Guardian]
Manager - Lieutenant

Long ago slighted by being passed over once too often for promotions, Llanowar left his people's Elven lands in search of recognition for his martial prowess. After spending time amid human militias, Llanowar found his Elven acumen for battle greatly appreciated. He brought to the battlefield new approaches not thought of by humans who had little interaction with outsiders. He rose quickly in rank and caught the attention of Flynn's father. By using his connections, Flynn's father gained Everkeen's squad as personal guards, and has transfered command of them over to his son.



Like their namesake,  Worg Company prefers an ambush method of attack, using deceptions to draw their enemy out of safe places, then picking them off once they are out of the reach of their allies. They rely heavy on any method of ranged attacks, as well as spells that help keep them unnoticed, including silence and invisibility.
