The Emerald Company

The Emerald Company is a mercenary company hailing from the west coast of the Old World. It is best known for its usage of War Elephants.

History
The Kalians are a group of people on the west coast of the Old World that trade intensively with the desert. As a result they have become a mix of urban settlers and nomadic culture. A group of these Kalians then decided to use their valued skill of elephant taming to train elephants that are bred for war, smelling a business opportunity in selling these gigantic animals. Lack of any real experience in warfare however, has caused these elephants to be flawed in battle, enabling them to attack friend and foe alike in a raging fury when met with certain amounts of pain. The Kalians themselves are no experienced soldiers either and thus hiring this company is attractive to those seeking raw destructive power in their armies.

Organization
The Emerald company is led by a very successful emerald trader called Jugurtha, hence the name Emerald Company. In battle the company is led by a privately hired officer with experience fighting desert bandits. The elephant caretakers hold a big share of power as well as the company revolves around their expertise. It comes as no surprise that 50% of income goes to Jugurtha, 40% to the officer and elephant caretakers and only 10% to the regular infantry, equipped to deal with bandits. (Karian axemen)
