The Silver Wolves of Ebberon
Symbol: A full moon with the pic of a howling wolf in silver in the center of it.
Background:
The Silver Wolves of Ebberon evolved out of small scouting parties that where charged with looking for intruders in their lands and expelling them with the right amount of force and effort needed. However when the purge came about and many of the shifters where put into the shifter prison camps unfortunately so where their scouts, trackers and hunters that made up the bases for the shifter rangering corp. that where later given a chance to prove that the shifters where not evil like their lycanthropic relatives. Those brave shifters that answered the call to arms would soon be know as the Silver Wolves of Ebberon. The reason the Silver flame gave them this opportunity was due to necessity; due to the fact the the Silver Flame had spread it's self thin at the time of the purge and with the lycanthopic population growing they knew they need more man power but they did not just need them for their man power they need them for their tracking experience, they where need for their survival skills as well as their ability to go into many places that even some of the Flame most elite paladins would not dare tread. The flame need light and extremely mobile strike forces that could move in and do what ever is necessary whither it be just go in and scout enemy position or to go in a eliminate the threat all together. After they proved them selves in the purge the Flame stated to trust them and used their services when ever the situation called for their skills. However they are often called to defend Thrane aginst the forces of Karrnath which actually is beneficial to the the shifters in two ways 1, it help their union between them and the flame and 2, it also helps protects there homes in the Elden Reach keep in mind there is only one thing in between the Eldeen Reach and Karrnath and that is Thrane. It is also due to the closeness that these shifters have gotten to the members of the Flame that actual started spreading the Flame thought the hearts of these shifters and stared them on the same path as the Templar in regards to eliminating the evil in the same quick and decisive manner, and so there after these proud groups of shifters where called The Silver Wolves of Ebberon, and where ever evil may hide they now know that their is someone on the hunt for them and their is nowhere on ebberon that they will not be found and when they are found they will not know what hit them
Goals:
To rid the world of forces that threaten their well being, and to protect their lands whither it be on their lands or in enemy territory to prevent an attack on their home lands. They also wish to prove that the shifters are not like the lycanthropes. That where almost hunted into extinction during the purge. An prove that normal folk do not have to fear them and that they can live in peace side by side.
Foes and Allies:
They fight any one who intends to cause harm the the shifters and their ways of life, wither it be demon, devil, aberration, lycanthopic, or evil in general. Some of their biggest foes are the Order of the Emerald Claw, which some may call the Vol's counter parts to the Silver wolves, the Lords of Dust, and the Cult of the Dragons Below! They find any good organizations as allies especial the Silver Flame. Even though they are not widely appreciated or greatly liked by many of it members due to there blood lines some Silver Flame commanders see them as fodder while others may not say it openly they respect them for fighting for there cause even thought they are not very well liked by the members of the flame; but the Silver Wolves just see it as another thing to obstical that needs to be over come like it or not they need each other in one way or another. However the Silver Wolves will still take the job that most mercenary's won't take. As long as it is in the name of the greater good of their kind and their allies.
