Star Protective Services

The Star Protective Services, formerly known as the Company of the Star, is a band of adventurers that was led by Zaranda Star before she became queen of Tethyr. The band gained notoriety for their combat teachings. After they were arrested in Zazesspur by Baron Faneuil Hardisty in 1366 DR and subsequently escaped, the group lived with the peasants in the surrounding hills and dales, teaching many of the villages in northern and central Tethyr how to defend themselves against attacks from bandits. This caused some of the figures in power to interpret their actions as training an army.
