History[edit]

The Ghost Legion was a mercenary unit that fought during the Jihad as part of Stone's Coalition.

The unit served the nascent RAF during the initial conflicts of the Republic of the Sphere. Stone honored the unit, who swore loyalty to his new republic, by preserving it as a whole. The Legion was retained as a rotating training Militia unit, which was stationed in Prefecture IV since 3127[1] during the decades of peace.[2]

This treatment created a resentment, and after fall of the HPG Grid and when Aaron Sandoval declared the formation of the Swordsworn. Angie Chelsy, who had established a working relationship with Sandoval over the years, shifted her allegiance to the Lord Governor.[2][3]

The unit's motto is Take Them Before They Know You're There.
