An updated campaign map
War is a way of life in the ancient world. Just as witches gather in covens to share arcane secrets, warriors with a shared purpose also form bonds of sisterhood to advance their common goals. These bonds lead to the creation of formal groups with rules and leaders, treasures and ambitions.
Joining a mercenary band is an extremely common career choice and recruiters are constantly searching for able-bodied candidates to fill vacancies. Characters may join one or more of these groups, or they may even be forced to join. Regardless of how they become members, they gain a large group of friends, connections, and compatriots on whom to rely. However, these associates may also come asking for favors or assigning work.
A few of the mercenary bands, elite units, and special operations groups covered in this file include:
The 10,000
Persian Immortals
Spartan Krypteia
Egyptian Medjay
Sacred Band of Thebes
Myrmidons
Poseidon Command
Leopard Society
Carian Contingent
Berserkers
Scythian Archers
The Sons of Mars
The Silver Shields
And of course, the Amazons and the Valkyries.
