	When Reinhart IV. needed to reform his military, he realized that he had a less than typical population to recruit from. The citizens of Medec have become used to prosperity and fine art. Decidedly not the kind of rugged type one would want to wear heavy armor and carry large weapons. Reinhart decided to use what was given and recruit Battle Bards into his force. The result was a musically talented soldier, able to inspire his fellow Medecians with songs and tales of bravery, or curse his enemy with dischordant songs.

	Medec is a trade center, and it's city reflects this, with merchant stalls everywhere and the great temple to Hurine in it's midst. To ensure smooth trade, the city has very harsh laws against all trade related crimes, as counterfeiting or stealing. The guards are trained and empowered to enact swift justice. The Patrician employs enough of them so that they are usually seen in pairs or small groups at most parts of the city.

			The literal translation "house guard" doesn't do this corps justice: They are hand picked soldiers who have excelled over several years. Custos Domus have been chosen for their experience and their loyality to the da Medican family. Whenever they leave the palace, they have absolute authority over any other troops.

			They tend to view the other parts of the Medec militia with a bit of contempt, thinking of them as "lowly trader folk". This is a bit strange (most of them stem from that "lowly trader folk"), but nonetheless they are highly respected among the other troops for their experience.

			The Nomad River is called Medecs lifeblood. It is a small wonder that the River Wardens are set to protect the river and the commerce on it at all cost. They are skilled archers, who can easily shower any smuggler ship or upstart pirate with arrows and bolts.
