Syrnia Unit

## Description

The Syrnia Unit is a special military unit led by Nyla Havelka and sanctioned by General Lomidze that protects various regions of Rhukane from dangerous threats, commonly monsters and creatures such as Ghouls. While in the Hearth, the Syrnia Unit patrols Sanctus at night, killing Ghouls, dealing with gangs, and investigating crimes. Members of the Syrnia unit typically wear a white dress on duty, and have garnered an image as a female only group, despite that not being the case. Their most infamous target is the Rakshasa, a renowned serial killer.

## In Game Description

"A militia unit tasked with protecting various regions of Rhukane from dangerous threats. Led by Nyla Havelka and sanctioned by General Lomidze."

## Members

### Nyla Havelka

Founder and leader of the Syrnia Unit, Nyla Havelka is the most prominent figure within the unit. As an ancestor of Sir Havelyn the Great Magus, and the Red Raven, Nyla's connections to the Rhukane Royal Family allowed her to create the unit to protect others.

### Astrid Luzatto

Lieutenant of the Syrnia Unit, Astrid Luzatto is a capable member who has saved Nyla's and Finley's  lives in various fights, however her secrecy and personal ambitions as a member of House Luzatto can cause conflict and trouble within the unit.

### Ilvog Finley

Finley is a tracker and officer for the Syrnia Unit. One of the more reliable members of the Syrnia, she handles bureaucratic tasks such as paperwork that Astrid cannot be trusted with, and Tabby cannot be bothered to do.

### Tabitha Heszmori

Tabby is an officer of the Syrnia Unit, serving as a capable mage, and has a strong knowledge of wraiths.

## Relationship with Other Factions

### Rhukane Royal Family

The Syrnia Unit receives financial support, and legitimacy from the Rhukane Royal Family. As a result, Nyla, and by extension the Syrnia Unit, takes orders from General Lomidze, such as organizations to target.

### Nishizaki Gang

Recovering from their losses in the Lux Hearth, the Nishizaki Gang has become a large supplier of Mistle within the Sanctus Hearth, drawing the attention of General Lomidze, and by extension, the Syrnia Unit.

### Rakshasa

A renowned serial killer with a who has been terrorizing the Hearth for years, they are the most elusive target of the Syrnia. Their kills are marked by dismembering the corpses.

### House Luzatto

As a lieutenant of Syrnia, and a member of House Luzatto, Astrid causes tensions between Syrnia and House Luzatto, especially in terms of informational warfare. However Astrid's modus operandi, and House Luzatto's, leads to their actions being too discrete to attract the attention of the Syrnia Unit.

### Chevalier Gang

While not an officially sanctioned military unit, the Chevalier Gang are an organization that attempts to act as a vigilante body in Sanctus, much like the Syrnia. Along with the rivalry between their respective leaders, this naturally puts them at odds with Syrnia. Despite that, the two organizations rarely have real conflicts, and are willing to help each other when necessary.
