Silver Raven

Lemme tell ya something: They may look stiff and unpleasant to interact with, but as treacherous those woods are, their weariness is not exaggerated.

Structure

• Sheriff & Assistant-Sheriffs: The head of the Silver Ravens, both take care of the little prison quarter and management of the law enforcement.

Deacons:

Usually staying in the city to check on the visitors and denizens entering the village from any possible disease or curse, they are sometimes following the wanderers on specific investigations that may need their expertise. The deacons are usually trained in divine arts by the local church, but respond mainly to the sheriff.

• Wanderers:
  
  The mobile force of the Silver Ravens. they traveled in groups of at least 3, and patrol the outskirts and roads of the swamp that covers them. At best, they just check on the citizens outside the walls and give a feeling of safety. At worse, they fight against the numerous menaces the bog main contain.

Public Agenda

Having difficulties to get support from the mainland in term of security, the village of Ravenscrag , thanks to rich patrons, invested in forming a special militia to ensure the safety of the villagers in and close of the walls. Their main task is to secure peacekeeping, but also to fight the various predators in the bog.

Assets

The militia have access to twelves war-trained horses, half of them being veterans at war donated by the capital. The rest of their equipment mostly consist of gears such as studded leather armor with silver spikes, a silver helmet, and various weapons. They have access to a sheriff headquarter, which is a two-story stonework housing with a basement having a small prison that can occupy two average person. They also own three carts equipped with cloth to cover corpses, hemp ropes and other minors items.

History

At the origin, the town of Ravenscrag was guarded by some untrained citizens that were reporting to the town hall representative. However, over time, danger started to make the place impossible to defend properly. But as the capital was worried with a nearby war, the denizens could not receive proper protection. Came the help of a retired siege alchemist and part-time adventure, Lurcius Contradel, which came back to town with a rather big budget, and decided to offer to pay for the militia to get more equipped and formed. He soon noticed a noticable amount of monster nearby, such as the Bogsmotherer , were weak against silver, and thus made orders under pretense of study research. Thus, the citizens created their own named militia, and with their patron's assistance, were efficent enough to offer more safety near the roads, allowing the village to get more trade and not fall into decrepitude.
