The Grey Judges

FACTION OVERVIEW
The Grey Judges are spread far across the Crown, maintaining a quiet presence, ever ready to make a ruling where others are not. A monk might be requested to mediate a trade dispute. A rogue might investigate the suspicious death of a local lord. Members of the Grey Judges know the local law and are tasked with maintaining it. They do not care if the ruling baron is a cruel despot or a benevolent lord, only that his rule is legal and that the law is followed.

Members of the Grey Judges are spread far and wide, and usually operate in isolation. They learn to depend on themselves more than others. Upholding the law requires them to be knowledgeable and astute observers. Members who dedicate themselves to officiating ceremonies are more social than others who are charged with dispensing justice and mediating disputes.
