II Legion of Sevicia

The II Legion of Sevicia, known usually by their moniker The Bloodhounds, is a legion in the Imperial Sevician Army. Created by the Sevician ruler Ascillion the Great during the military reforms of the third century, the Bloodhounds have served primarily as a combat unit ever since. Their official motto is "Bitter steel" and their sigil is a golden bloodhound on the traditional red field of Sevicia.
== History ==
Established during the military reforms of the Sevician army during the early third century, the II Legion was originally a combat-orientated unit. During the Conquest of the Shimmering Isles under Ascillion the Great, they led the vanguard alongside the first and third legions and earned considerable favour and a reputation for their discipline and bravery.
They served intermittently as both as a combat and civilian unit for the next few centuries before being almost destroyed during the Middlelands War against the Kingdom of Erenna in the early-400s. After being rebuilt to maximum strength post-war, the Bloodhounds have served as a vanguard unit for a number of wars and civil conflicts over the centuries, including during the South Sea War against the Roni, the Conquest of Imentium, the wars against Duscador, and the Anaean Wars of the 660s. Known for their fierce fighting, the Bloodhounds have earned themselves a reputation as being among Sevicia's most elite legions.
As of the year 713 they are stationed in the Easterlands region, north of the capital Morosea, under the command of general and senator Isabel Felia.
