Where ever there are organized groups of people, there are soldiers. These men and woman want to make something of themselves, but don't have the necesarry foolhardy attitude of adventurers. So they pledge their services to Lords, Kings, Villages, Towns, Cities and anyone else who has the coin. They make up the bulk of armies, the majority of a town's defense, the people manning the walls of a castle and even the men and woman who stand watch over an adventurer's camp, while the adventurers are off getting into trouble in some dungeon.
