Little else is expected of them other than to train, grow and bring honor to their circle until they come of age, finally able to become true warriors.

The 'Street Urchins Guild' was formed by a destitute few from the Surlvhalian War, giving the orphans of their time and future a place and purpose. In the year since it's reputation has darkened to the level of thieves, yet not without virtue (for as much as that helps).
