Amnachs
What started out as a drunken brawl ended in the form of one of the most feared mercenary groups in the Dreadlands. A group of friends go into an unknown tavern after working a long day in the Thresher gold mines. Lywin, a brute size elf after years of working hard labor had ordered several rounds of ale for his cohorts. After finding a large vein of gold the day, his bonus was a significant one. One patron wasn't too happy about his find though. A fellow miner by the name of Huthar and his gang confronts Lywin. Demanding what he have left over or face a brutal beating. Rumor has it Lywin turned around with a full momentus swing and knocked Huthar into the wall almost a dozen feet away. Huthar's gang was shaking and intimidated by the sheer strength of Lywin. Quickly rushing for the bar exit. Little did everyone know a wealthy traveling merchant saw this all go down. In need of protection this merchant confronts Lywin with a contract. "Five of the best fighters including yourself and you will be handsomely rich by the end of your life." The merchant tells him. Lywin on a streak of victories that day didn't even look at the contract. He just signed it, and was ready with four his closest friends the next morning to meet the merchant. Over time Lywin and his four other companions grew in power as well as in numbers. Being able to go on several contracts at once. This grew their fortune to a Lord's size. Now the organization needed a name... Lywin went back to his dark past about when he lived in Amnach. A small village East of the Kolta Mountains in Ustein Territory. When he was just a boy Lywin lived with his grandmother and grandfather working their leather tanning business. Until a day no soul would wish on another. The Vanta forces of Qesmea came into the village to launch a debilitating attack on the his town. After they were finished nothing left but ash and standing brick. Lywin's grandparents were slain in the attack trying to get him to safety. He vowed to seek revenge and total annihilation in secret against the leaders of Qesmea. Wanting to honor his family and lost ones He decided on the name of The Amnachs to be the organizations name.

Public Agenda
Working with the Golden Dawn almost exclusively during current events.
Assets
Hundreds of thousands of gold pieces. Rare Items found or gifted from travels. A Battalion of horses. Castle Willowrush under Amnach control now. Their wealth expands greatly to even impress the Iron Bank.
Demography and Population
Mostly Human, they are not so warm to other races but will recruit them. Rumor has it they don't move up in the ranks at all.
Territories
The Amnachs are a neutral party. They work for hire. Meaning they do not owe allegiance to one kingdom of the Dreadlands. Spread widely throughout the lands in small to medium sized encampments.
Military
Trained in the fighting styles of Lywin and his good friend, a half-orc named Grimtor. The Amnachs are armed to the teeth and can easily kill with their bare hands. They are proficient in mostly martial weapons. Few spellcasters are allowed in the ranks for unknown reasons.
Foreign Relations
Their relationship with the Golden Dawn was formed just a few years after Lywin decided to form the organization. A rich group of Merchants in need of Bodyguards in dangerous times. Needless to say the relationship soon became almost joint force effort. Closely working together they share trade secrets to stay one step ahead of the competition.
