Spellbreakers

Formed by the Conclave of Arcanum in conjuction with the Empire of Eskarya, the Spellbreakers was trained and tasked with dealing with arcane vagabonds and those who practice the arcane without license to do so. The reason for the formation of the Spellbreakers was due to the unrest and civil disobedience in reaction to the Arcana Aegis Act of 10EF.
Known coloquially as 'Mage Killers', the Spellbreakers are known to be caspable to dispelling a magical effect with a single strike with specially crafted gauntlets that harness psionic energy. Equally, their blades are coated in a poison, making the concentration on magic by spellcasters immensely difficult. Agents of the Spellbreakers are forced through a rigorous and gruelling training programme, where they are subjected to immense pain and suffering through arcane means, until they are suitably able to withstand and resist the effects of spellcasters.
In order to withstand battle with practitioners of the Arcane, it is said that the Spellbreakers have turned not only to psionics, but also alchemy, with advanced medicine allowing them short bursts of immense strength and dexterity to give themselves an advantage over their enemies.
Whislt it is rumoured that the items, equipment and power used by the Spellbreakers was harvested from the Illithid ships following the War of the Temporal Avulsion, Valentius Neidir of the Conclave and the Empire strongly refute these claims.
