Welcome to Agents of the Fist! This game was formed by players of the Blackbird Lake game after the heroes in that game retired. Some of the Agents PCs have a connection to those heroes. This game tells the story of a party of adventurers who start off as mercenaries and eventually gain acclaim and renown in their own right -- while grappling with the tensions and contradictions between being both soldiers-for-hire and noble heroes.

Game Background

The Mailed Fist mercenary company is trying a new organizational structure: teams of eight recruits led by two sergeants. The characters in this game form one such "Double Fist" -- and may be the test case that proves the worth of the concept, or not!

NPCs

Sgt Helmbane is a dwarven male that stands at 4'8", 205lbs. He is one of the two leaders of the party's double fist. He is very gruff and does not speak much. He comes across as very gruff and mistrusting. He is obviously a lifelong soldier that is new to command.

Sgt Trimmack is a human male that stands at 6'3", 215lbs of pure chiseled muscle. He is one of the two leaders of the party's double fist. His skin is dark as ebony aside from a few red scars that trace his skin. He speaks with an air of confidence, but is not cocky. He speaks as a man who has faced overwhelming odds and came through the victor.

Qualtmie Redfist Northernvoice -- also known as "Q" -- is the quartermaster of the Fist's Citadel. She is a halfling, small even by halfling standards, with olive skin, almond-shaped eyes, and a shock of bright red hair that seems almost unnatural. She is nervous when things go wrong. She owes the party a favor for ridding her stores of a rat infestation.

Knight Captain Constance Palance is the officer in charge of the Citadel. She has shown herself to be fair, but extremely strict. She takes command seriously, and expects much from those to whom she delegates command. She and Sgt. Trimmack elevated Double Fist to the station of Agents of the Fist and gave Nikolai command as Thumb.

Geography

The Agents of the Fist game starts in the original Mailed Fist fortress, called The Citadel, or The Eyrie. Forces there specialize in martial magic. It is located near Wedding City in Fargunia.
