Perhaps the largest and most in-demand of the
Devilblood Companies today, the Foefire Company has made their name as the most famed monster hunters of the
Age of Darkness - continuing their expertise into the modern day with an elite group of
Bloodhunters in their ranks who practice a body-altering form of alchemy that is aided by a partnership with the
Reykhold College of Alchemy.
Today they operate mostly out of the Northmark and Eastmark of the
Valedori Empire, with guild halls in
Lowland Bend,
Reyk's Fallow,
Grey's Mooring, and
Csillasgrad - though they have had more of a presence in
Valedor and
Fort Ramsgate in recent years. Their crest is a single flame that is often cast in metal or sewn into their armor with a blue or green color. Many carry alchemical torches or weapon oil that can alight in a blue or green flame.
A SPECIALTY IN MONSTERS
What makes the Foefire Company such experts in monster hunting is their Bestiary - a codex of monsters discovered by the company, including detailed notes on how to defeat them. These tomes are carried by many of the established groups within the company, and are regularly up-kept by the guild. The envy of scholars, these tomes are the collective power of each hunter and make it the most knowledgeable of the
Devilblood Companies by a long shot.
OPERATIONS OF THE COMPANY
Because of this expertise and unique knowledge of the Foefire Company, this has led them to have built connections with many guilds across the
Valedori Empire - making them in high demand for the most challenging work available. Most recently they have been tasked to work with the
Imperial Army in
Fort Ramsgate to begin the exploration and cleansing of
Fractals in the
Nimbus Sea on behalf of the empire. While this would normally be outside of the desires of such a group, the opportunity to expand the Bestiary is unique and enough to draw the interest of many of the company’s leaders.
