Impartial Purpose-Driven Faction: The Nauts are the but truly neutral faction in the game, equally the Congregation is simply "neutral" in that it tries to become the middleman between fighting side and to profit from it, and the Coin Guard or, rather, its leadership turns out to have ambitions of dominance, too. The Nauts, meanwhile, really only care nearly the body of water and their ships, ferrying members of all factions for a ready toll and usually fiercely resisting interest with other factions.

A guild of mercenaries who serve as soldiers or bodyguards, or sometimes combat instructors like Kurt. Both The Bridge Alliance, the Thélème and especially The Congregation of Merchants often make use of their services.

Ring of Brothels: In improver to working as mercenaries, the Coin Guard besides manages brothels attached to taverns that are hooked upwards to their guild halls.
Bodyguard Betrayal: They've been positioning soldiers trained equally assassins as bodyguards of the Governors equally office of their inevitable insurrection.
The Coup: They somewhen launch a coup of the 3 cities.
Dirty Cop: Not only is there a criminal conspiracy among the ranks of the Guard but they besides try to execute a coup to accept over the cities.

Some of the gladiators are willing participants fighting for money, but others are prisoners who are being given a Trial past Combat or just a particularly fell public execution.

Law Enforcement, Inc.: Information technology'south unclear to what extend they serve equally a police force, and how similar this is betwixt Old Continent factions, but in New Serene, they are frequently shown to perform constabulary enforcement duties - though they themselves are ultimately beholden to Congregation law and in these matters are outranked by De Sardet.

Commander Torsten

Voiced past: Alastair Parker

The current Commander and overseer of the entire Coin Guard guild, and therefore the highest official for them on Teer Fradee. Why a man of his caliber is so personally invested in a small-scale island is a mystery De Sardet will eventually need to accost...

Arc Villain:His try to take over the island in the mid act of the game qualifies him as such.
Green-eyed Monster:It's implied that years of kowtowing before the powerful and affluent drove Torsten mad with envy and he became obsessed with being seen as an emperor than a soldier.
Police force Land: His ultimate goal is to convert Teer Fradee into a militarist island nation ruled with an iron fist.
Stupid Evil: Ultimately, though Torsten's programme was masterfully executed, he never stopped to recall about the logistics of trying to directly rule an island nation like Teer Fradee. It's lampshaded that should his plan had actually been successful, the Coin Guard would have substantially fabricated enemies of every government power in the known world, having cutting themselves off from supplies and substantially trapping themselves on a nature-infested rock surrounded by miles-broad bounding main. In the end, Torsten'due south merely wants to indulge a power fantasy and has no long-term scheme to properly bring information technology into fruition.

An former friend of Kurt's and i of the few Money Guard members able to keep her nose clean.

By-the-Book Cop: 1 of the few loftier-ranking officials in the lodge that doesn't have aspirations of becoming a dictator or gangster.

The Dreaded: Nobody who knows virtually Egon dares to say a peep without fearfulness of their corpses floating downward the river.
From Camouflage to Criminal: Unlike most other examples of this trope, they're all still *in* the military and run affairs but fine from it.
He Knows Too Much: They don't appreciate the Legate of the Merchant's Congregation stick their nose in their affairs.
Homo Traffickers: Another lovely token on their resume is their willingness to care for humans as cattle. They've set up a lucrative business organisation in selling Natives dorsum to Gacane as servants.
Les Collaborateurs: As information technology turns out, they were sympathetic to and aided Commander Torsten'due south coup, and selection upwardly where he left off even later his defeat.
Membership Token: High-ranking members identify one another past keeping a distinctive silver coin on their person. Coincidentally, the presence of these coins helps De Sardet know who's involved with the organization.
Protection Racket: One of their more prominent methods in conducting business concern is potent-arming local shopkeepers to pay them "tax" or else face terrible consequences.
Resignations Not Accepted: Woe betide the poor gangster who gets cold feet...
