Yeoman's Auxiliary

The Yeoman’s Auxiliary was a mercenary guild formed by infantrymen who fought for the Knights of Magilone during the Murkbriar campaign against King Frein’loka and the Greenpath Trolls.

When the knights’ armies were largely disbanded at the end of the war, the yeomen formed their own professional organisation and began to hire themselves out as mercenaries. They had a large guild hall in Sanctuary and played an active role in the defense of the local settlements: many members of the militias both in Sanctuary and Falgoon Gap were paid up members of the guild, benefiting from training, equipment and other facilities on offer.

The guild also made an effort to provide for veterans and the orphans and widows of dead soldiers.

Broodblame and Valdor were popular gods within the guild, although worshipers of many gods could be found there: indeed, during the campaign against the trolls a chaplaincy covering all of the gods approved of by the Knights of Magilone was established to see to the pastoral and spiritual care of their footsoldiers, although most of the chaplains left after the end of the campaign.
