The guards, known as the Order of the Watcher, are dressed entirely in grey and white, the better to blend in with the surroundings. Anyone moving through the pass is required to pay a toll of half a doubloon per head, which makes Fort Touge fairly wealthy. The guards spend that wealth in the small settlement that surrounds the fort, most notable for the Inn at the Top of the World. Fort Touge trains **Watch-Brothers**, stalwart defenders and riflemen. They function as //Skirmishers// and count quadruple when defending sieges and assaults. Training and procuring equipment takes 1d6 weeks and 25 doubloons per soldier.
