: I was born in Stöng in the year 2154 A.E. At the age of
: 18 I joined the ranks of the Myrmidons and soon
: learned the ways and code of the warrior. When I was
: in my mid-late 20's an evil force began to consume our
: land. At the head of this darkness was a figure that
: called himself Ashfear, we later came to know him by
: his other name, Balor. He was a worthy opponent and
: offered us a truce on rather generous terms. In return
: for allowing him to move freely through our lands he
: would grant us with eternal life, or so he said. Of
: course our leaders were skeptical and volunteers were
: selected to receive this gift.
I would assume that the Myrmidons are tribal, like the berserks, and not a military organization that you just join up with. I could be wrong though.
