Volstrucker
The Volstrucker, known colloquially as "Scourgers", are the Dwendalian Empire's elite assassins, regarded by most Dwendalian citizens as ghost stories and urban legends often told to children as bogeymen to warn against disobeying parents or staying out too late. Only the Empire's elite are aware that the Scourgers truly exist. Even the Expositors of the Cobalt Soul have difficulty verifying the truth about the Scourgers. The Volstrucker answer directly to Mistress Astrid Becke of the Cerberus Assembly.
As part of the "awakening" that forms a core component of their training, Volstrucker receive implants partly made of residuum to strengthen magical abilities. In the process, the residuum crystals leave noticeable scars across the arms. The arms of the Volstrucker are also covered with black maze-like tattoos.
