Company of the Claw

The Company of the Claw is a sellsword company based in Maidenpool. It was founded in nearby Crackclaw Point, where it continues to recruit the bulk of its men.

Crackclaw Point has historically been one of the poorest regions in the Seven Kingdoms - a circumstance suffered by its smallfolk and nobility alike. Consequently, clawman knights frequently join the company for lack of other opportunities, providing it with a steady influx of qualified leadership.

With its headquarters at Maidenpool, the company also enables its clawman members to frequently visit their homes. The company is thus comprised of an unusually high number of married men, who are able to spend time with their families between their tours of duty.
