History:
Swords of Justice was founded by Biafyndar Fendove in 2768 when he and a small group of soldiers, adventurers and townsfolk drove away an invasion of drow from the underdark. They freed the prisoners that were taken and destroyed the tunnels leading to the underdark. After that Biafyndar and his followers travelled around Sirano and the southern islands, fighting similar threats from and destroying any connections to the underdark. Later Biafyndar settled in Orio, the capital of Eorin. Here he found a certain peace, which he said came from the perfect harmony of the city and that there was no injustice to be found. Several years later, in 2831 Biafyndar officially created The Courtyard, the headquarters of his ever growing organization.
In 3406, Biafyndar Fendove died of old age, and his granddaughter, Elora Fendove, become the new leader of the Swords of Justice. Elora has proven herself a capable leader already and many of the members of the Swords of Justice look up to her.
Known goals and plans:
The Swords of Justice have always been at war with their rivals, the Order of the Iron Gauntlet. The two different groups have had many battles, with no clear winner so far. Despite the greater numbers of the Swords of Justice, the Order of the Iron Gauntlet ruthlessness and dirty tricks keep both forces on equal levels of strength.
The Swords of Justice also send out their member to help those in need, to protect the weak and unite powerful individuals to their cause. They hope that one day they can eradicate the world of all injustice and bring peace and prosperity to all.
