Hobgoblins chosen to become black wardens are put through their paces through several years of gruelling training and tests of loyalty, faith, and skill, and those that succeed are gifted with the signature dagger of a black warden and emerge as hobgoblin darkblades. A hobgoblin darkblade has yet to earn the right to wear the signature black plate of fully fledged members, but they wield divine magic and hope to become black wardens after passing the final trials. |
