The Brute Squad

(1/9) > >>

groinkick:
Were they destroyed when Archangel was attacked? 

The definition I found from urban dictionary:

1. A group of the most challenging guys around, merciless conscienceless heavies just who beat people up into the service of a boss or king

Sounds like a group that I'd like to see Harry meet up with.  They were involved with taking down Kemmler.  I wonder if they were the ones who helped Eb in Changes?

Mr. Death:
Yes, they were. Everyone at Archangel was killed when it was attacked.

In universe, its been over 10 years since the battle of Archangel. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a new brute squad running around, and we just haven't heard of them because Harry wasn't invited to join.

They call them Wardens these days.  I have a feeling the distinction was more prevalent in Peacetime when the Wardens are theoretically more of a Law Enforcement and Investigative Force as opposed to a focused Military bruiser unit. 

Mr. Death:
Also, "Brute Squad" doesn't appear to be a formal title for a specifically-made group. When Bob uses the term, it's lowercase. The guys at Archangel might have been tougher than the average wizard, but it's not like a SWAT unit that has to be refilled and reestablished.

If there's still an analogue, it's probably the old guard Wardens that you usually see with Ancient Mai and the Senior Council (Warden Scandinavian-Name-Harry-Keeps-Making-Up, for instance).
