Espada

Biography of Group

The mercenary company known as “Espada” is a young company, founded by the wandering Warlock Samael McNikle, and the Wetlands Ronin Shimazu Azia after their combined victory with GGA at the Sapphire Empire of Rivermoor Phoenix League Tournament, at Curse 2018.

After a conversation about companies and their expectations on them, Shimazu and McNikles discovered that they had similar interests, they decided to start their own. Founded on the tenants of Self Improvement and Comradery, the company began its mission to grow and solidify. Before long the Aztec Warrior Shaco, the Master Assassin Timmit, and the Roman Legionnaire Simeon were recruited into the burgeoning company, the tiny Elf Aki was also apart of the company for a short time, however left to join Norse Star. After spending time finding out how they would like to operate, and what the groups focus would be on the company settled on their collective beliefs and how they would proceed as a unit. Soon the Two Towers Vahn and Sage were shanghaied into the company at Polaris’s event GAC 2019.

Currently there are seventeen members of Espada, and 7 spots, spanning between the Kingdoms of Polaris, and Rivermoor.
