Checkmate Company.

[CunningPlan]

Checkmate Company is a mercenary force I'll be setting up, led by Edywn "Bishop" Borenson, a methodical strategist and devout follower of the Red Knight. It is going to be based around a disciplined approach to combat, the use of varied tactics, and ultimately aims to develop into something like the School of War was in the Underdark.

The faction itself will be LN in outlook, based on Bishop's personal code. Characters of any alignment can joining if they'll work as a team and follow a plan on the field, but Chaotic PCs might have a hard time at that. Non-crusadey Good welcomed, "Vicious Bastard" Evil fine, "Twisted demonic" Evil less so.

We'll be attempting to beat quests using more unconventional tactics, and having the strength of acting as a clear unit rather than a pick-up team with some organisation.

If you want a chance for your PC to shine at what they do, this will be a great faction to join, as Bishop wants his soldiers to use their skills to best effect.

Rogues will have the chance to calmly disable stuff from stealth and come back looking smug, rangers will be *asked* to track QAs and explorable areas to give us info, Clerics to lead a prayer before battle and so on.

If you're interested, but you want any more info or to discuss, PM me.
