The '''Shinsengumi''' is a special police unit operating out of [[Sheng-Lao]] under the direction of the current ruling family, the Harayumi family. At first, the Shinsengumi was founded to protect the noble representatives in Sheng-Lao at a time when political opponents were openly attacking one another in order to become the heirless Emperor Tatsu's successor. At its peak, the Shinsengumi had about 300 members. They were the first samurai group of ancient Sheng-Lao to allow those from non-samurai classes, such as farmers and merchants, to join. Many joined the group out of a desire to become samurai and be involved in political affairs.
The '''Crimson Lance''' is a multi-racial special forces unit operating out of [[Meadowcraft]] under the jurisdiction of the Human Kingdom.

The code of the first Shinsengumi, famously created by '''Nobu Nakajima''', prohibited deviation from the samurai code, also known as Bushido, leaving the Shinsengumi, raising money privately, taking part in others' affairs, and engaging in private fights. The penalty for breaking any rule was seppuku. Since the ruling of the Harayumi family, the founding members of the Shinsengumi have all but been replaced by younger, more impulsive members who have deviated from Nobu Nakajima's code. They have become a private army for the Harayumi family to use in spying on their opponents and removing any threats to their rule. Their current leader is '''Nara Harayumi''', Asano Harayumi's grandson.

"Acta Non Verba... Actions Not Words."

The Crimson Lance is a multi-racial special forces unit operating out of Meadowcraft under the jurisdiction of the Human Kingdom. After the disbandment of all adventuring parties as per the Sanoka Accord, the Human Kingdom saw a well of unemployed, battle-hardened mercenaries for hire. The Crimson Lance became the first organized coalition to take in registered former heroes underneath the watchful eye of the government. The nation of Meadowcraft trained and supplied this unit of former adventurers from across the Human Kingdom and turned them into an effective fighting force. Today, the Crimson Lance is the tip of the spear in any large-scale conflict with a wide net of experience in hand-to-hand combat, counter-intelligence and espionage, and the arcane arts. The only way to gain entry into the Crimson Lance is by recommendation by a superior officer of the Crimson Lance. Even then you're not guaranteed entry. The best the Human Kingdom has to offer doesn't judge based on "believing in yourself".
