Secrets of the Organization

Unknown to many, The leadership of the Guild is dominated by Werebears. Every Senior Attorney upon his admittance, is inflicted with Lycanthropy in order to preserve justice, either he is willing or not to go through the transofrmation. While the guild does its best to ensure justice is served for all. There is a great correlation between cases where attorneys, whether they are defense or not, come upon evidence that is incrimating and after the sentence is publicly and justly delivered and attacks of Werebears.   Many times, the Guild hires Witchers to find those werebears after witnesses found them - However, the Witchers only remotely come with a werebear in hands, not divulging any information they came upon.
