Nighthawks

From Inheriwiki, the ever-growing Inheritance database

The Nighthawks were a group of warriors assigned to protect Nasuada from any dangers or and attacks against her. The force consisted of thirty-four men, dwarves and urgals. All chosen not only for their strength, ability and loyalty, but also for their cunning intuition.

‘I see Jörmundur has surrounded me with warriors as skilled with their tongues as they are with their swords.’ – Lady Nasuada

[edit] Duties

The Nighthawks were assigned to Nasuada in rotations; six members at a time, two Dwarves, two Urgals and two men, would accompany her continuously.

The Nighthawks relied more on reputation then displays of violence, to keep Nasuada safe. The idea was to make people believe that they were ‘the smartest, the toughest, and the meanest’ In order to insure no one would dare to try and get past them.
