Mercenaries and Mercenary Forces

The following troops are warriors, rouges, and mages that roam the lands of the Corridor as freemen and aligned with no one. When they wander into your lands, you may attempt to hire them to your service for a variable period of time as unit commanders or to perform some task that you need done. For the most part they are more powerful than the standard NPC. It may be that some may elect to serve for an extended period of time, perhaps permanantly, should they feel at home with your kingdom. This is not the normal case, however. They bascially fit one of three alignments: good, nuetral, or evil. You as a ruler are not limited to any of these three basic personalities; just be aware that the mercenary will basically behave in the fashion of his alignment, and will carry out orders as he feels compelled to do so. Some are quiet capable troops and servants; their time of service will vary according to their tasks and rewards.

Bella Damalli... the Lady of Chaos. A powerful and very elusive warrior / assassin that thrives on carnage, combat, and death. Bella can usually be found anywhere there is war in progress or brewing, and will gladly sell her enchanted swordwork to the highest bidder with little regard to numbers or creed of her employers.

The human called Caplet is an enigma. He is a thouroughly nuetral, methodical assassin that works for very short tasks of terminations throughout the Corridor. To date, no one has been able to clearly figure out his personal thoughts on any particular subject, except that when he accepts a job for his expensive fee, he will never give it up until he suceeds, at which time he promptly disapears from all contact with former employers. The only exception to his relentless pursuit of a target is if he comes across his rival Jericho, which will deter him from an assignment as they pick up their long standing fued. Artwork:unknown
