Blackrazor Guild Arms

Obsidian Bay's premiere guild for chaos, accidental destruction, and inadvertent heroism.

Overview

• City: Obsidian Bay
• Country: Domain of Obsidian Bay
• Leader: Malphas von Malaclypse
• Roster: 505

The Blackrazor Guild was founded in CY 577 by Brant Bladescream. He named it after his prize possession, the sword Blackrazor. The grew steadily grew for two years until Brant came up with his biggest plan yet: plundering the lair of the great dragon Woryx. In CY 579 the Blackrazor Guild's best set off on their adventure... but only Brant returned, beaten, broken, and sword-less.

For the next 7 years Brant did what he could to keep the guild afloat. Regardless of what schemes he came up with, he just couldn't bring back the glory days. That is, until a few aspiring adventures showed up: Malphas von Malaclypse, Tänévir Calywyn, and Kalib Ironfist.
