Thedarian Black Legion
The Thedarian Black Legion, colloquially known as the 'Thedarian Black,' is a legion whose reputation for loyalty to the Empire, and their willingness to do anything to achieve their goals. They are easily recognizeable by their black breastplates, helms, and tower shields.
Brutal Tactics
The Thedarian Black lack finesse. They see no need for it. They carry unique tower shields, each with a notch on the right side through which they may fire bolts from the heavy crossbows each carry upon their backs, or through which to slide spears to form a powerful defensive formation. It is said that their shield wall has never broken.
Once the battle is joined, the Thedarian Black excel at close quarters, melee combat. Each Thedarian in the legion trains extensively on a daily basis with both mace and sword, and has the ability to switch between the two whenever the situation demands it. Whenever they are given an objective, they use any and all means to achieve it, unless that objective changes. This single-minded purpose has given rise to war atrocities condemned and frowned upon by other nations, even that of the @Nordurriki, who themselves are known for their casual attitude towards death.
