The Lion's Paw Mercenary Guild

The Lion's Paw Mercenary Guild (commonly Lion's Paw), was a successful mercenary guild with many chapters throughout Midland. It employed hundreds of adventuring parties, and was led by Garen Lythewell, Theomere Eilmaer, Jasper Ranulf. The leader of Lion's Paw Wheatriver was the infamous Gavin Aldair. Following the Second Coming of Mythrix, the revelation that Aldair was in league with and apprenticed to the Beiryll the Deserter led to many leaving the guild and joining Dench and Friends (who were ex-members of the Lion's Paw themselves).

Despite the dramatic reduction in size, the Lion's Paw has reformed and seen moderate success on the eastern coasts of Midland.
