Executioner
Among the first warriors recruited into the Shael Moghin were Knights from Haradel. Many of them carried large two-handed weapons and followed Vidunar or Barek. Most were already part of military forces headed for Koronna to fight off Del Kamai’s Crusade. Elinris lured them away with the promise of high pay and eternal glory.
During the Del Kamai Crusade, the Shael Mohgin became known for these weapons. Afterward, when the survivors decided to stay a mercenary company, most warriors voted to keep these weapons.
Eventually, these troops standardized the greatsword and became known far and wide as Executioners. Executioners are the shock troops of the Shael Mohgin. They wear heavy armor but eschew a shield to swing their heavy swords with both hands.
In battle, the Executioners throw themselves headlong into the enemy, screaming oaths as they hurtle toward their foes. Their wild abandon and total disregard for their safety are enough to shake almost any enemy. If the enemy doesn’t break, the Executioners’ greatswords will finish the job.
