Vost Miraj

The Vost Miraj is a mystical and secretive order of assassins from Arkhosia. The name - Vost Miraj - is Arkhosian, and means "The Hand that moves".

Organization
While no one knows how large the organization is, it is commonly known among Arkhosians that the Vost Miraj operate in groups of five, called Hands. Depending on the mission, the composition of members in a hand may vary greatly. The following types of Vost Miraj agents within a Hand have been recorded, but there may be more. The common trait is that each member type seems to carry a title that signifies its role associated with a body part.
 * The Eye seems to be the Vost Miraj infiltrators and spies. They lurk in the unseen and gather information, as well as to provide an overview of the mission.
 * The Mouth seems to be skilled manipulators and diplomats, using charm, negotiation and subterfuge to manipulate others into serving the Vost Miraj and to achieve their mission. Usually without anyone knowing they are being used as pawns in a larger game. This is also the prefered method of the Vost Miraj, which has given them their name - The Hand that moves.
 * The Will seems to be the operational leader of the Hand. They serve as main figure head in whatever cover they employ, as well as coordinating the mission and providing resources, in order for the other members of the Hand to focus on the mission.
 * The Arm seems to be the violent members of the Hand. They are the ones who carry out assassinations, when it becomes impossible to manipulate others into doing so, and at the same time they provide security and protection for the Hand during the mission.

History
Very little is known about the Vost Miraj, except that they originate from Arkhosia. No one knows where to find them or how they recruit their members. But it is known that they always serve a paying master, and when they accept a mission, they always complete their mission, unless the entire Hand is killed, in which case they return payment and the contract is cancelled.

There are Arkhosian legends about the Vost Miraj leaving behind a bloody handprint at a public place, for all to see, whenever they have completed a contract. But this seems to be more of a ghost story to enforce the secrecy and fear of this deadly organization.
