Grisly Six

The Grisly Six, the commanding force within the Guilds of Tor, is named after its six founding leaders. Their primary role is to oversee and regulate the activities of other guilds, ensuring strict adherence to the rules they established. The guild, far expanded beyond the original six, still carries their legacy of decisive justice.   Tasked with investigating infractions, maintaining guild boundaries, and overseeing high-risk operations, they hold the authority to enforce discipline and administer punishments. Their power is extensive; they can intervene in any guild matter, earning both respect and caution from all members. Funded by taxes from the other guilds, the Grisly Six operates with a broad mandate, ensuring good faith among all interests.  

Leader

 

Abaddon Angleov

Lawful Neutral, Male Upiryrial   Abaddon Angleov, a man bound by the Covenant, stands as a paragon of unyielding law. Raised in the city of Tor, his upbringing was steeped in the principles of order, shaping him into a figure of harsh principles. Abaddon's life took a decisive turn when he joined forces with five others to confront the piracy plaguing their city. This decision marked the beginning of a transformation from a citizen to a symbol of authority.   Known as the "Axe Hand" in his early days with the Grisly Six, Abaddon was renowned for his brutal efficiency in meting out justice. His role as an executioner, though harsh, was thought of as a necessary arm of the law in a city besieged by lawlessness. Over time, as the tides of piracy receded, so too did the need for such severe measures, allowing Abaddon to evolve from enforcer to advocate.   Today, Abaddon excels in the realm of bureaucracy, his acumen for legal proceedings and permit acquisition unparalleled. His dedication now is to upholding the law and defending citizens. While his methods have softened, his resolve has only grown stronger. The original brutal nature of his youth now serves as a stark contrast to the wise and measured leader he has become.   Abaddon's influence extends beyond the courtroom and city hall; his legacy as a founding member of the Grisly Six shapes much of the guild's ethos. His journey from vigilante justice to legal advocacy encapsulates the evolution of law enforcement in a city once defined by chaos. Despite occasional tensions with newer guilds, Abaddon remains a central figure in the diplomacy of the Guilds of Tor.
