This group of warriors, paladins and priests are followers of the goddess Metris in her aspect as the protector of travelers. They wander the roads and trails of the Tempest Coast lands guiding travelers, protecting caravans and doing all they can to keep trade and travel safe.
The Hands are not numerous, but are a welcome sight to travelers everywhere. They wear hooded lavender (light purple) cloaks with the large yellow symbol of an upright hand. They generally appear in bands of 4-8, with the majority being low level warriors. A band is usually mounted, and will typically be led by a priest or warrior of moderate level.
Because of the service that they provide, it is customary that members of the Hand be provided with simple food and lodging for free in those towns and villages that they pass through.
