[@Mardox] Would I be able to be the leader of a mercenary band?

Yes, we have several leader-types already but the mercs cannot join the party (other than a couple proper characters) so they could help fight Htraknu's minions or alternatively, die horribly. If you can think of a good alternative to these options, I'll hear it.
