Brotherhood of Thollos

Muscle for hire is not hard to come by in the sector,
but few can lean on a reputation as polished as that of
the Brotherhood of Thollos. Once recruited only from
the Infernis gangers of Gunmetal City, the Brotherhood
has spread like a stain across the sector with Sibellan
narco-gangers and other hardened types from the gutters
of the sector’s hives swelling its ranks. The Brotherhood
offers some of the most professional, brutal and expensive
stubjacks, heavies, thieves and bagmen that can be
chartered on this side of the Halo Stars. Discerning in
the jobs they take, the Brotherhood knows better than to
anger the great powers of the noble houses and Adepta,
but consider everybody and everything else fair game.
Not all of those within the Brotherhood are mercenary
hirelings; they also number talented fixers, information
gleaners and black marketeers among their ranks. It is in
the brutality underpinning organized crime that most of
their members excel.

to their Inquisitor.
