The '''Dawnbreakers Brotherhood''' began as a mutual-aid society for veterans and grew into the dominant body licensing mercenaries across the [[Pelervar/Council of the Free Cities|Free Cities]]. It vets and licenses fighters, registers legitimate military contracts, supports its veterans, and enforces the contracts its members swear — a contract sworn before the Brotherhood being treated as one sworn before [[Pelervar/Mordaveth|Mordaveth]] himself.

Its people rise from '''Raw''' recruits through '''Bladesworn''', '''Shieldwall''', and '''Ironwarden''' to the regional leaders called the '''First Dawn''', and every hall keeps a resident Hilt-Priest of Mordaveth, whose '''Claim Rite''' most members accept though none are compelled to. The Brotherhood guards its reputation jealously: an employer who has broken faith with mercenaries before may quietly find no Brotherhood blades for hire.
