The Emerald Blades
The Emerald Blades are an independent army that also offers mercenaries. They train warriors in the classes of archers, swordsman, and assassins. Each kind of warrior costs a different amount of money according to their rank and class. The warrior makes 60% of the hiring cost if they chose to be a mercenary; the guild takes the rest. The uniform of the guild varies for each rank. The Emerald Blades are, again, an independent army that has mercenaries available. But they are also a brotherhood with strong bonds to one another. Just because part of the guild is mercenaries, that does not mean that they do nothing independently. They are an independent army that acts as one with the men who are not currently hired. When they are fighting another's war, they fly the Emerald Blade's banner with pride, represent them, and always remember who they are ultimately part of. Being a mercenary group is just part of what they do. They are just as much an independent army as they are a mercenary guild. This is an extremely important point.
