- Lead by Breggan Blackcrown
- Her key lieutenants include:
- Dusker — gnome scout/assassin
- Blessing — nonbinary warforged bodyguard, heavily armored
- Sigil — human war mage and artillery specialist
- The Company of the Black Crown are infamous frontier brigands, feared even in a region already crawling with bandits.
- They began as an elite Brelish military unit stationed at Orcbone before going rogue.
- Their captain, Breggan Blackcrown, defied orders for years, waging her own brutal guerrilla war against Droaam.
- Their campaigns included massacres of goblin villages and horrific displays meant to intimidate enemies.
- The Black Crown operate as a mobile guerrilla force, armed with military‑grade weapons including [[longdro]].
- They roam the border between Breland and Droaam, defying both nations and preying on both.
- They often fight other brigands and Droaamite raiders, which is why Orcbone’s commander quietly tolerates them.
- The Black Crown “tax” villages and caravans, taking a cut rather than everything — but killing anyone who resists.
- They’re brutal but not mindless, preferring intimidation over slaughter unless challenged.
