Saltmarsh Militia and Guards

A militia of five hundred residents can be mustered to take up the defense of the town if it comes under attack. The militia members have undergone minimal training, since they are expected only to keep small bandit and monster attacks at bay. After losses from the previous war with Snowden few members are willing to volunteer for fighting for the king.
A small force of marines watches over the docks and, if needed, can take to sea to meet the threat of a pirate ship or sahuagin incursion. The marines are hardened veterans of several battles against the Sea Princes. They are led by brothers Tom and Will Stoutly, veterans who have fought dozens of engagements against pirates, raiders, and monsters.
The guard is seen as something of a meddlesome force, since most of its members are drawn from the military veterans who migrated here with the crown’s blessing. Townsfolk tend to see them as brutish thugs, though they are quick to call them when trouble arises.
