[QUOTE="Shades of Eternity, post: 9731529, member: 10869"] I can see two groups. 1. the benevolent society that does things for adventurers behind the scenes. 2. but I'm a sucker for another group [ATTACH type="full" alt="1755481215160.png"]414669[/ATTACH] They are technically Argentine mercenaries, but the Japanese wrote them, so maybe some sort of rowdy bunch of mercenaries to use as friends or foes? perhaps with a tweak of full metal panic where the mercs have a tendency to take regular jobs to get intel? edit: did some stewing on potential names: [HEADING=2]Martial & Bold[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]The Iron Banner Company[/B] – flying their own war flag wherever they go. [*][B]Steel Dragons[/B] – invoking Kara-Tur’s reverence for dragons with a mercenary spin. [*][B]The Thunder Battalion[/B] – loud, unruly, and hard to miss in a fight. [/LIST] [HEADING=2]Eastern Flavor[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]The Jade Talons[/B] – elite, sharp, and tied to a Kara-Tur motif. [*][B]The Crimson Monsoon[/B] – evoking both bloodshed and unstoppable force of nature. [*][B]The Tiger Banner[/B] – borrowing from war banners of old, fierce and martial. [/LIST] [HEADING=2]Recon & Mobility[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]Shadow Lancers[/B] – fast-moving and adept at striking deep. [*][B]Storm Pioneers[/B] – scouting, blasting, and paving the way for others. [*][B]Iron Nomads[/B] – mercs always on the move, selling their guns where needed. [/LIST] [HEADING=2]Tongue-in-Cheek (fits rowdy vibe)[/HEADING] [LIST] [*][B]The Wild Banner Society[/B] – equal parts chaos and fraternity. [*][B]Gunpowder Brothers[/B] – loud, messy, and unignorable. [*][B]The Blazing Gourd Company[/B] – a Kara-Tur spin on rowdy mercs carrying “lucky” sake gourds into battle. [/LIST] For me it comes down to the steel dragons or the blazing gourd company, but seeing which names grab you? [/QUOTE]
