Scoured Legion

The Scoured Legion of Hellgate Keep was a strong company of tanarukks.

Leadership
The Scourged Legion was led by Kaanyr Vhok, a cambion who proclaimed himself "the Sceptered One and Master of the Scourged Legions." His consort and chief advisor was Aliisza, an alu-fiend.

Members
Vhok's Scourged Legion consisted of 2,000 tanarukk warriors with auxillary troops: bugbears, ogres, giants, etc. They had their own forges and armories.

Ruinfist was a tanarukk captain in 1372 DR. His left hand was useless but was encased in a spiked battle gauntlet.

History
The Scourged Legion invaded the Nameless Dungeon in Alturiak 1369 DR, opposed by a band of snakelike creatures. In 1372 DR to 1373 DR they besieged Menzoberranzan alongside the duergar army of Gracklstugh with the support of the Jaezred Chaulssin, but withdrew just as the tide of battle turned against them, leaving their allies to be decimated.

Later in the year they besieged Sundabar but were again repelled. The legion fractured when their leader the cambion Kaanyr Vhok and his consort, the alu-fiend Aliisza fled for the Elemental Plane of Fire after the siege collapsed through a portal beneath the city.
