The Blacktalons were a mercenary group based out of Iriaebor who predominantly took contracts guarding and raiding caravans. Led by Taurgosz Khosann, they were an unscrupulous company known for their autonomy, vengeance (when they were cheated out of money), and for never reneging on a contract. As a testament to the bandits who preceded them, the Blacktalons were known for raiding unguarded caravans in order to encourage their owners to seek their protection.
