Bushido (organization)

Bushido were a mercenary company based in Chessenta. They were a composed army.

History
The samurai Noro Amoto founded the Bushido army to fight the Tuigan during the Horde Wars. Inspired by occidental's bravery during that war Noro and his men decided to remain to fight in Faerûn even after the defeat of the Grand Army of the Tuigan, hoping to learn more about faerùnian culture in order to strength Kara-Tur.

Membership
Bushido contained 60 heavy infantry, 60 medium calvary, and 60 mounted archers.

Tactics
Usually the Bushido used his footmen as wall against foes while the archers harried them. The cavalry was used for the final attack or to cover a withdrawal. Hard-riding messengers maintained contacts between Noro and his three lieutenants.

Contracts
the Bushido accepted only honorable works. They charged 700 gold pieces per weeks for their services.

Leadership
The Destroyers were commanded by the Samurai Noro Amoto with firm hand.

Headquarters
Though they were a roaming army, the Destroyers were based in Halabar in Halruaa,  and were the only mercenary company to make their home there.

Relationships
The Bushido fought two times inconclusive battles against the Renegades.
