While all Hernkyn serve as the honored rangers and scouts of the Leagues of Votann that look for wealth and settlement opportunities across the Galaxy, Hernkyn Yaegirs act as its elite infantry who are trained for the most dangerous missions. They are typically deployed if Hernkyn Pioneers discover a site of value that is defended by significant enemy forces.
Besides acting as purely combat forces, Hernkyn Yaegirs also are capable infiltrators and agents of discord. To avoid unnecessary and bloody campaigns, they sometimes will instigate civil or inter-species wars in targeted regions. When the smoke clears, the Kin of the Leagues of Votann will arrive to claim the spoils from the ruins. Yaegirs have few scruples in achieving this, and will even employ dishonorable terror, raiding, and pirate tactics.
