Forces of Power

Several groups struggle to gain control of the North, not to mention controlling the Ultima Thule. So here's quick summary of them, with links for additional info.

The Arcane Brotherhood
Arcane Brotherhood is a mercantile company and a wizards guild that operates in Luskan. Someone could say they actually operate Luskan itself. Our heroes have only seen their mages guarding places like Seven Sails Inn, but the organizations true power is yet to be revealed for our mercenaries. More info about the Arcane Brotherhood may be acquired from this link here.

The Amazing Luskan Lads
The Amazing Luskan Lads are a thug band that operates at the shady alleyways of southern Luskan. They are specialized in sacking the newcomers at the Piers of Luskan. Another curious thing about them is their weapons of choice, they do not resort in lethal violence, as they believed that a "customer" left alive will later be able to conduit more business. The Lads are currently: Alf (blackjack), Mug-Mug (fists), Spider (net), Surt (whip) Audmund (blackjack) and their enigmatic leader Windmill-Hágo and his rapierlike elven thinblade, a weapon of subdual fencing (or at least until the battle proves grave danger)

Red Dog Mercenary Company
The Red Dogs are the most efficient mercenary company operating in the northern realms of Faerun. It's commander, Klemens Greybeard and his iconic companion, huge red dog/wolf have been in charge of the company from its begin, given even more peculiar image for that clearly intelligent canine. The company has a drill garrison inside the walls of Luskan and they do constant cooperation with the lords of  the city of Sails.
