Black Hand (Company)

History and Agenda

The Black Hand is a Company with it's roots in the Pacific Northwest. Our primary goals Include the promotion of Boffer related sporting and the spread of anachronistic military and combat culture alongside the various organizations in our area The Black Hand was founded in August of 2002 by Lord Blapticus Le Terni' of Mystic seas. The original members consisting of Blapticus (then MA to Sir Lucifer Bolt Ten Dragons),Squire Nanzo(also to Lucifer) and MA Filthy (again servant to Lucifer). Since then Squire Nanzo has left the Black Hand to pursue the possibility of following his knight into service with The Annihalus Company. Filthy has not been sighted in 6 years. The first time The Black Hand Showed it's numbers was at PAC WAR 5. There were 16 members in attendance and wearing white wool with purple and green trim, whilst officers wore purple with black and white trim. Company colors changed again a year later in 2004 to Blue with Black trim with silver or grey accents. This color scheme is still seen today. The Black Hand is a lean, mean, results oriented machine. The Black Hand will do nearly any job for the right price.

The agenda of 2012

In the Summer months of the year 2012, the prodigal son Bambie returned to the fold, bringing with him Pharmboi. Bambie was a hero unto his own kin, and fought many battles for the good name of his brothers. He brought down pirates and warriors in the Name of his love Faline. Having joined the ranks in 2009, Bambie has risen through the ranks of Our illustrious household within a scant 9-12 month period of activity. Glory be the Captain Bambie, who now wheres the hat and leads our men to Battle. And beside him sits Dalamar the wise and the oft impetuous Blapticus Le Ternie, making the trine of leadershp. All are known for their strength and courage in battle and politics, and have never seen a beer gone wanting. Thus came the storm as new blood flooded in. Late of October saw a man returned from the mists, come to change the face of the hand, and with him came the strong arms of many new souls. Draugr Virduligr Bred change in the company, and his ideas wrought strong bonds. Forged together by bonds of brotherhood, the triumverant opened the company to the pursuit of knighthood as was the wish of Leto Theodaupolis. Draugr Virduligr then called for “Casual Mondays, a day of folly and frivality at either his Abyss or Bambie's Spawning point. Casual Mondays are for The Hand to bond and relax and for the recruitment of new souls into the dark folds of The Hand. With This New base of stability, Bambie fights to bring structure and balance to the hand and bares it's name ever onward through the halls of Amtgardia.

Closing of 2012

Some time in the early summer Leto Theodaupolis vanished from the misdt of his brethren. So too was Brotaku Vengeant to leave the Black Hand. When the season passed and the Hands masters began to pierce the thin veil of deceit that the betrayers had woven did Brotaku make his triumphant return. With us no more are three men and their followers. No more stand three men and their lies.

At the end of the year, amongst feasting and victory celebrations, so were Brotaku Vengeant and Kiki the cute restored to the hand. Brotaku now serves as Lieutenant of the Black Hand and it's Commander in battle. Kiki serves as a heart to our Hand and Flexxx of the Throzen Depths serves as a heart to our Hand as well.

2015-2018

Dozens of junks with many more men aboard vanished along the way. We lost a great weight of men and women on the voyage. Some left out of disagreements, some left out of gathered spite, others...well they just walked the damn plank. Regardless of the Losses many more members have been gained, and their loyalties weighed. From Seadogs to Tortuga to Amptgard have many trials and experiences brought the hand to a tighter grip on the hand's holdings and have given the Black Hand countless opportunities to garnish influence and power. Some have even murmured the rumors that their new strength is the byproduct of a deal cast with the ancient Mesopotamian God of the Sea Sirsir and that through much blood sacriment his hand was cast over the fleets of the Black hand, to harden their bows and quicken their sails towards glory!
