Protect Aquilonia, See Hyboria, Join Primus Pilus (RP PVP guild)
Amidst a blood crimson sunrise, the first century of the forth cohort, stood vigilant watch over the walls. Under the command of First Centurion Leonius and Second Centurion Artorius Gemellus, the century was busy shoring up the defenses, for earlier that night Leonius had had a dream, and war would soon be upon them. His superiors dismissed his dream as nothing more than a hallucination, but the legionaries under his command believed him, for they had no choice, unless they risk the flogging that would ensue for speaking out against an officer.
The leadership of the guild uses its former training as legionaries, to train its new members.
Those that do not know us might think our motives to be purely for financial gains.

We are more a splinter type legion that refuses to give up its war.
We fight to safeguard those that cannot or will not safeguard themselves.

At the military fortress of Fort Tuscelan, along the Black-River, a garrison of imperial soldiers was assigned to guard Conajehara, knowing that they were the first and possibly the last line of defense.
Pallantides, leader of the Black Dragons, under secret decree from Conan, continues to supply us with orders and supplies when he can. For soon he will have need for mercenaries not just to battle the Picts, but other forces that threaten the sovereignty of Aquilonia.
In some cases we take money for our services, but only what we need for supplies, and arms.
Amidst the chaos at the end of the battle the remaining four survivors from the fourth Century slip into the woods, and into hiding. They knew the king would not risk another open war the Picts, so their only course of action was to wage a war in secret. They would band together as mercenaries, for this time they would fight not for land but to avenge their fallen brothers from the Battle of Tuscelan. To honor the fallen the named themselves “Primus Pilus” meaning Prime Century. They would soon raise an army, under the command of General Leonius, and Prefect Gemellus.
We are mercenaries in title only; we fight for a higher purpose other than fame and fortune.

It was no coincidence that the same sunrise aoc gold Leonius saw in his dream was quickly raising over the horizon, blood crimson color as if Crom himself had pierced it with his sword, signs of death. Suddenly battle horns sounded, for thousands of Picts were on their way to the fort, and a collision course with destiny. A great battle ensued but the Picts gained the upper hand, destroying the fort and pushing the garrison back to Fort Velitrium. By time the battle was over both sides had been dealt significant casualties, and neither could advance their lines any further. Of the 480 men only some 50 remained, including just five from the fourth century.
Recruits MUST be from Aquilonia. The only exception to this rule will be for “Bear Shamans” that can only come from Cimmeria. “Bear Shamans” will be allowed into the guild in a limited quantity and aoc gold you should seek the permission of an officer prior to applying. “Bear Shamans” that have sought permission from an officer, must apply just like anyone else, in addition you will be required to post a back-story on the Alpha Company Online Forums as to why you (as a Cimmerian) would be aiding your former enemies, prior to your acceptance into the guild.
King Numedides would soon be slain by Conan. “Primus Pilus” followed the king in title only, for he was nothing but a weak puppet ruler, under the influence of the vial sorcerer Thulandra Thuu. It was at this time that the survivors revealed themselves and supported Conan’s new rise to power, for Conan had to been at the Battle of Tuscelan, and he offered the best chance to take the fight back to the Picts.
