Action by Tobias

With Thralldom abolished in Kennex, Tobias makes it known via messengers and other means that mercenary minded former thralls (former soldiers, support personnel, logistics people etc) who swear fealty to the Compact and want to come to Arx are welcomed to see if they have the skillset to get into the Crimson Blade logistics force -or get tested for initiation into the Crimson Blade training squad and see if they can make the cut- and will be given the essentials to sail over to Arx (mostly via Thraxes fleet).

To make sure that people have a chance of being hired, and aren't just looking for free silver handouts, Tobias is going to send a Captain with a couple bodyguards over on the Thrax ships to screen candidates for the skills the Companies and support personnel need.

If they cannot make the cut once in Arx, Tobias will direct them to others who will help and hire them.


Result

Most are untrained, and the Blades have always been about skill over numbers, but Tobias is able to find some thralls who had a great deal of combat experience even if it was -against- the Compact and why they became thralls in the first place. About a dozen all told, but they are battle hardened veteran elites, even if their loyalty might be questionable at this point.
