Marsember Watch

The Marsember Watch was the local constabulary of Marsember, an organization of city guards that protected the Cormyrian city and its economic interests. While they were charged with the city's protections, many of their members were considered to be corrupt and thuggish.

Organization
The watch had a military-like hierarchy, with ranks similar to those used in the Purple Dragons, such as topsword, blademaster, constal, and lord marshall.

Activities
Many watchmen regularly accepted bribes, particularly when offered by the city's mercantile interests.

Relationships
The group had a contentious though not outwardly hostile relationship with Cormyr's Purple Dragons.

History
The watch was founded about a century before the events of the Second Sundering as a private militia for the merchant's guild of Marsember. They were originally tasked with providing interference between the merchants and the local contingent of the Purple Dragons.

When their city was evacuated on Uktar 2 of the, watchmen under the command of Topsword Kleef Kenric cleared out Wilhastle Square while Kleef himself fought off a number of shades singlehandedly.
