Organization
The Corpse Brigade was once a functional division of the Ala Mhigan army during the reign of King Theodoric. Bearing a notorious reputation, they were known for serving as his personal guard and trained in counter-monk tactics in opposition to the Fist of Rhalgr[1]. When Theodoric fell, the Corpse Brigade fled retribution from the rebellion, becoming little more than a band of criminals and thieves with hardly any connection to their past status. Their headquarters is a small enclosure in the region of Southern Thanalan known as the Sepulchre[2], where they harry the Resistance and the residents of Little Ala Mhigo with raids, kidnappings, and poisoning of the Ala Mhigans who fight against them[3][4][5]. In extension to constant assaults against Ala Mhigan refugees, the Corpse Brigade blocks important thoroughfares of travel for Ul'dah merchants and demand coin for passage[6] They also profit from the trafficking of their poisons to the Alacran[7], and participation in deals between beast tribes for hostages through the Ascians[8]. They are also considered problems by the Order of Nald'thal due to their acquisition of excerpts of the Necrologos[9]. These issues with the Ul'dahns force the sultana to request adventurers to assist the Brass Blades in detaining and putting to the sword members of the organization for their crimes.
