The Brotherhood of Doom

right|300px 
A loosely organized group of mercenaries and robber barons. If the price is right, no act is below their honor. Their current leader (Master of the Universe) is Kazentorn. The Brotherhood is limited to the countries to the north and east of the Inner Sea (including the north coast of Belandria) and Donara .
==History==
The Brotherhood was originally conceived as a joke by young noblemen. According to Penboynian tradition, the son of a noble must prove himself worthy in order to eligible to inherit his father's title. Some families made rather light of this, and declared a son eligible after he had participated in his first hunt or something similar. But in other families it was customary to send the son away, and not let him come home before a third party had informed his family of his merit. To some sons this was a great injustice, and they met in Latislav. Initially the idea was simply drinking to pass the time, then they began to make up stories of their exploits and play dice to see who would go tell the lies to the family. But telling lies proved to be too base for these youngsters, instead they began bestowing each other absurd titles. So after passing 'beer review', one could take the name of, say, General Motor, Duke of Hazard or Hertz van Rental. For many years the Brotherhood was a meeting place for young prospective nobles having 'good clean fun' for a few years, but as time passed, the Brotherhood began to have more permanent members. Third sons, disinherited nobles and bastards that really had no future began to dominate. At a certain point it became just a club for disgruntled troublemakers and it is now nothing but a network of sellswords and rogue adventurers calling themselves fanciful names.
