The Swords of Liberty
Karrnath has its Order of the Emerald Claw, Breland has the Swords of Liberty. This outlaw band of self-proclaimed freedom fighters operates in small cells throughout the country, engaging in acts of violence against the crown as well as taking on select missions beyond the Brelish borders.
The Swords of Liberty first appeared in the earliest days of the Last War, but the group has become more active in the past decade or so. The tenets of the Swords of Liberty are fairly simple and straightforward. During the last years of the Last War, the Swords called for the abolishment of the Brelish crown and the formation of a new democratic government. Since the signing of the Treaty of Thronehold, the group has added to its message. Now it wants to reignite the war, believing that Breland is strong enough to win outright and spread the ideals of democracy throughout the land.
This radical and violent organization doesn’t see that its methods don’t match its message. It attracts extremists and idealist alike, however, and King Boranel ir'Wynarn has grown more and more concerned about the Swords and what they may do next. In addition to striking at targets designed to weaken the crown, the Swords also strike targets guaranteed to raise tensions between Breland and the other kingdoms.
