Dog Soldier
The Dog Soldiers are the professional mercenary bands of Grollen that roam the central and north heartlands. In the last centuries, these have been put together by the Grollen community itself because as single and small groups, Grollen losses to the population have bleed their species dry over millennium. Now most who wish to “leave” or experience the larger world do so through the Dog Soldier bands – 100% Grollen operated, always with the help of elder(s) and/or shaman of Ezrilus. The larger bands are hired out for skirmishes and battles, contributing to the tribes welfare and satisfying the bloodlust of the species on outsiders. The survival rate of Grollen in such situations is much higher, and the species population decline has slowed. Dog Soldiers may leave the companies for the grater world, but because of the bonds made in them, they ALWAYS will obey the oath of loyalty and obedience to their pack/tribe as well as an order from ranking Dog Soldier company members or clergy of Exrilus.
Prohibitions:
- They will always obey the oath of loyalty to their tribe/pack.
- Cannot attack any other Grollen or the Grollen Homeland
- NEVER fight other Dog Soldiers or Clergy of Ezrilus.
- Followers of Exrilus are treated on a case by case basis; mages often follow the goddess and this has caused some known issues.
