Gith Guards of the City of Cinders

The Guard force of the City of Cinders are primarily made up of Gith.  They are as corrupt and violent as anyone else and often used by different Cadousars to murder and rob each other.  They are expert fighters and they carry a red gemstone collar as well which they are adept at attaching to new arrival’s necks.  They fling the collars like frisbees and it takes a Dexterity saving throw of DC 15 to avoid.
