Civilian City Cohorts
The Civilian City Cohorts are a controversial in Amber and often mocked by the nobility and royalty.
The population of Amber is familiar with weapon and military affairs. Frequent forces out of shadow attack the city. Unruly visitors, merchant caravans, uncover puma cults, and any number of other violent forces find their way to Amber. The general populace are comfortable wearing and using weapons but sometimes a dagger or cudgel is not enough.
The Civilian Cohorts are enthusiastic amateurs when it comes to military needs. They function as a volunteer fire department, are often involved in emergency services,
While the CCC is widely and openly mocked by the nobility and members of the various royal families in Amber among their strongest supporters are Prince Benedict and Prince Gerard and Baron Wyndham Feldane-Chief of Police.
- Benedict says the CCC is vital in time of war in organizing the general public and maintaining order. They keep spectators away from military actions and are often vital in the transportation of the injured, and to dealing with loots, and fires.
- Prince Gerard claims that the information that a responsible citizenry can provide the military can often be vital. Maintaining developing situations helps keep tragedies from expanding before the military can become involved.
- Baron Wyndham says the CCC interact with the city police as volunteers and provide necessary support.
