The Five Rings

The Five Rings are a criminal organization operating in various locations across Ashridge, most notably a hidden base on a separated island to the South-West. They have made their campaign against House McCallan and their allies through terrorism and criminal acts.

Currently there is not much known about them, save for that their big numbers are mainly goons who claim to be associated to them and work for them, or people who have no other choice then to work for them. No new information has surfaced due to any captured member kills themselves with cyanide pills, shouting praise to the Five Rings before they die.

What little pockets of brigands that are left joined the Five Rings and their leadership in the Borderwoods, where they seem to operate from mostly.

The Equine Guard gathered information from various raids and interrogations of the lower core members, that a Five Rings Lieutenant is hiding in a ruined fort to the East, Three Equine Guards, including Talvi'myr and Adriana McCallan have been sent to investigate and capture if they can.
