You’re a proud member of the Coalition of Murdock, Sapphire Lights’ army, dedicated to keep peace between Gemma’s cities and towns and fight off monsters that threaten that peace. Each major city has a CoM camp or outpost.
- Skill Proficiencies: Insight, Investigation
- Languages: Dwarven
- Equipment: An Coalition insignia, a map of Gemma with locations of Coalition chapters, a 10ft chain with a set of manacles ,a set of fine clothes, and a belt pouch containing 10 gp
You have the authority to enforce the laws of Gemma, and that status inspires a certain amount of respect and even fear in the populace. People mind their manners in your presence and avoid drawing your attention; they assume you have the right to be wherever you are. Showing your Coalition insignia gets you an audience with anyone you want to talk to (though it might cause more problems than it solves when you’re dealing with incorrigible lawbreakers). If you abuse this privilege, though, you can get in serious trouble with your superiors and even be stripped of your position.
Suggested Characteristics
Members of the Coalition tend toward either a demeanor of cold dignity and a pragmatic, orderly nature, or a warrior looking for battles in the name of protecting the weak. Steeped in the law as they are, their ideals and priorities revolve around legal issues.
Use the tables for the "soldier" or "noble" background in the Player's Handbook as the basis for your traits and motivations, modifying the entries when appropriate to suit your identity as a member of the Coalition.
Contacts
The Coalition is a sprawling military force, and has members in a variety of positions throughout that can pull strings to make things happen. Because of their role in making and enforcing laws for the nation, your membership can easily bring you into contact with members of other forms of leaderships, for good or ill.
