Dread Obsidians & The Queen in Black
Unlike their philosophical counterparts The Rogue State, the Dread Obsidians have no code or creed which guides their behavior and are oft considered the most dangerous, volatile, and unknowable aspects of the criminal element. Particularly known as a band of failed rebels, murderers, and pirates whose exploits have left villages burned to the ground, crops burned, and animals slaughtered.
The Dread Obsidians are a collective issue for all of Espen as they consistently raid coastal villages and launch attacks on towns for their resources. Known for making the captors slaves...or worse, the Dread Obsidians have been seen as far south as Sunsetter Village and as far north as Yitreal. No culture has escaped their wrath or that of the Queen in Black.
The Queen In Black
Known simply as the Queen In Black, the mysterious figure at leading the Dread Obsidians is a mystery to many. Her origins are unclear, all that is known is that nearly 5 years ago her small band of pirates began launching offensives in the north for reasons unknown. In response, a number of bounties were issued across Espen, with the humans, whose shipping routes have been widely disrupted by their activities issuing the largest 7,000 GP for her capture (alive), 9,000 if she is killed. Though no one can truly attest to her motives, one thing is for sure, the capabilities of the Dread Obsidians are growing with each town they lay siege to.
