Black Blades

An elite group of shock troopers serving the Elven Court. They are made up primarily of Orcs and elves who have converted to an orcish way of fighting. Unlike a typical "elvish" military force, the Black Blades are known for their direct and brutal way of approaching combat, valuing brute force and strength above all else.
They are named for the black-painted swords and axes they wield.

History

The Black Blades were founded after the war against the Empire, in part to honor the orcish warriors who fought to defend the city, and give many of the more savage warriors an outlet and combat structure that would suit them, unlike the Issilidorian army.
