History

Back in the day, The Malice was a kind-hearted man. He came over to Shartak with a batch of survivors who ended up founding Durham. Soon it turned out that there was to be a road connecting the settlements of York and Durham. The Malice set out to help with the road-building when he noticed that a large amount of people appeared to be identical! How odd! He killed one and so started his serial-killing days, dashing onto the road and killing those who worked on it. Eventually, The Malice gained his current nickname - because he was a Malice.

A few days after he started killing those on the road, he noticed someone named Wojciech who shared his ideals. Wojciech turned out to be a friend of The Malice from long ago, so they joined together and united efforts against the road. They smashed roadmarkers, obliterated directions carved on trees, and urinated on the road in a (futile) attempt to have it grow back. The road was finished although severely delayed thanks to the two menaces no matter how hard they fought against it, and Wojciech and The Malice found themselves with nothing to do. After twiddling their thumbs a bit, they decided to call a truce with the highwaymen and entered the settlement of York - ironically, The Malice got a bit lost on the way there even though he was following a road. York appeared to be under attack from Pirates and Native villagers alike so the two fought side by side with their old enemies against a new, more coordinated force. When they had a super-secret meeting in the middle of a packed Armoury, someone mysteriously over-heard their plans of sneaking into the jungle and killing random people and asked to join their group.

After a few more days, the trio decided to just stay in York a bit longer, get refreshed, and become full-time mercenaries instead of pillaging bandits. A few hours later and they decided to just make it formal, so the first Mercenary's Guild of Shartak was created.

Goals

The Mercenaries have no goals in particular. They fight evil and good alike and there are only a few things they shy away from doing. They stay together in a close-knit group of friends and go where they want until someone hires them to do a job - in exchange for gold, of course. Lots of pretty shining gold.

Current Missions

The mercenaries have no missions at this time other than to restock and gain a member base.

Past Missions

To delay and possibly cease the construction of the York/Durham road. Mission succeeded in the delay sense, failed in the cease sense.
