The Rose-shirts

Legend

“Never has a lowborn commoner brought more havoc to an empire and the institution of Nobility than Oici 'Princess' Lira and her Rose-shirts.”

History

At the age of 20, Oici ‘Princess’ Lira finally managed to secure enough wealth to buy her first tavern, and from there their organisation grew. Always using the eavesdroppers, thieves, and whores at their taverns to collect or plant information.

It was a perfect plan, and her understanding of men’s minds aided her tremendously. At some point, she even managed to plant her ‘Rose-scent’ in the mind of one in the Nobility amongst Ye Olde Zephyrs. It was of course perceived by their King and elders, but it added to the cracks.

We assume that was the reason Oici ‘Princess’ Lira became part of The Torch. A power-hungry woman’s vengeance can be terrible. And thus they tried their best to prevent the founding of The Realm and establish a High King, as they expected Black Oak to receive the crown and power. Apropos power-hunger, I sure could use a few bites to keep up this chatter.

Organisation

Oici 'Princess' Lira is their undisputed leader and keeps a tight grip on the organisation. Only a few of her trusted comrades act as co- or lesser-ranked leaders. Magnus the Grim, Ernilla Rosen, Asta Crow, Icola Wam and Mog Ense form with her a sextet.

Below them, they have dozens, if not hundreds, of loyal followers who willingly will support or act upon orders given, regardless if it means lying or even destroying those they deem enemies of their cause.

They lie with such skill that only the most dedicated observers are able to see them.
