History
"No! You're dead! You're all dead! You were all necessary casualties! It was war!"

- Tobias Querl, facing the consequences of his own actions

In 1352 DR, the Twilight Brigade went uncontested by the Starburst Swords in the Stonelands. They attacked the village of Darkenshield, razing the structures and slaughtering the entire population without mercy.

By 1369 DR, they had found employment with Lord Aris, who wished to achieve the conquest of Cormyr. Along with other mercenaries, the remaining 32 members of the unit gathered in Wyvernwatch Castle, with one of them, Tobias Querl, becoming Captain of the guard.

When they marched on the ruins of Darkenshield in preparation for raiding the area, they were instead met by the furious spirits of the village, returned for vengeance, and the spirits of the Starburst Swords, performing a final duty. The Twilight Brigade was torn apart by their own dead victims, with none surviving the battle.
