The Caerleon 99th Specialist Division - known as "The Red Dagger Division" - was a group of skilled soldiers from the Royal Army of Caerleon. Stationed in Burnfort, they frequently traveled across the country pursuing the discovery and containment of powerful magic items.

## Known Members

#### **Captain Malik Joanan**

He/Him. *Former member, deceased*. The Captain of the Red Dagger. Choosing to lead through kindness and trust, Captain Joanon served with a nearly flawless record for the last five years. Once apprentice to the legacy that is Fernando Rose.

#### **Lieutenant Vi Mertez**

She/Her. *Former member, deceased.* The fire to Joanon’s calm, Vi was the tactical brilliance behind the 99th Division. Often first up to bat to correct people when they’re in the wrong, Lieutenant Mertez’s scorn was feared by many in the division.

#### **Private Dylan Rose**

She/her. Dylan Rose, daughter of the legendary Colonel Fernando Rose, and one of the most recent additions to the Red Dagger Division. Often a guardian for the specialists when they’re doing their spellcasting, protection is the name of Dylan’s game, and she’s damn good at it. No legacy needed.

#### **Private Charlotte "Chuck" Constie**

She/Her. *Former member, deceased.* Private Constie was one of the most well connected Privates in all of Burnfort. If a heist, or similarly less savory strategy, is needed to succeed at a mission, Constie was the one the Division turned to. When Vi and Charlotte strategized together, the Red Dagger Division is at its most brutal and efficient.

#### **Private Makeda Liana**

She/Her. *Former member, deceased.* Private Makeda Liana was one of the glues that binded the Red Dagger Division. Not only did she care deeply about each member, she was wholly dedicated to making the world safer. Makeda also handled all of the equipment for the Division.

#### **Private Hyland Abent**

He/Him. *Former member, deceased.* High society man and skilled fighter, Hyland Abent, cared equally about climbing both the social and military ladder in Burnfort. Aiming to gain leadership of his own Division, he was constantly aiming for complete success.

#### **Private Mitsue Elois**

She/Her. *Former member, deceased*. Burgeoning socialite Mitsue Elois treated her appointment in the Red Dagger Division as a lackadaisical day job, and not much more. She was interested in what the gig can do for her socially, especially since her family is recently climbing back into noble stature.

#### **Munder the Medic**

He/Him. *Former member, deceased*. Munder should have been promoted out of this division years before, but his proclivity for drink stopped that progression. His skill rivaled most people on the team, but he seldom used it. The only exception was ensuring the health and livelihood of the Division. It was uncovered during the team's final mission together before the Fundergnome that he had an ex-husband named Scallop.

#### **Private Keve Anders**

He/Him. *Former member, deceased*. Boisterous and eager, Anders spent most of his time with the Division trying to unite everyone as a family. Without a title or riches to come home to, Keve constantly left it all out on the battlefield. He was always trying to either obtain new pets, or give people pets. He had a fox companion named Blueberry.

#### **Private Aarlon Ichas**

He/Him. *Former member, deceased*. Son of Athryn Ichas, prolific council member and former military, who had the weight of an inherited council seat weighs on his shoulder. He rarely unsheathed any weapons, instead lending help by casting powerful magic through the powerful sonatas he played from his violin.

#### **Specialist Artip Rauda**

He/They. *Former member, deceased*. Specialist Rauda was both a private and a specialist in the Division. Not only were they an incredibly powerful spellcaster, but they were one of the most famous Duelists in the city of Burnfort. Was the lover of Siveril Phidithis.

#### **Specialist Jennell Bali**

She/Her. *Former member, deceased*. This firey mage was brought onto the Red Dagger division for her excellence in elemental magics. No one knew anything about her past, but she never made a mistake on the battlefield. She mostly only spoke to Tonaut and Rauda, but was knowledgeable about ancient magic and traditions.

#### **Specialist Linwood Tonaut**

They/Them. *Former member, left to Arkala*. Linwood Tonaut was the primary magical research specialist of the Division. A graduated apprentice of the royal mage Lavinia, Specialist Tonaut exercises a great control over all magics. They rarely interact with people who aren’t skilled with magic. They left to Arkala with a powerful artifact after the Red Dagger's final mission as a full team. They reached out to Dylan via a letter at the funeral but has not been seen in Caerleon since.
