The Lost Ones

The Lost Ones were an Essosi mercenary company headed by Robert Tarlor, made up of veterans from the Second Sons, freed slaves and refugees. They have since merged with the Company of the Phoenix.

Tactics
Inspired by the Unsullied, the Lost Ones were noted for emphasis on pike. Due to their low cost and effectiveness against Dothraki, the majority of the company used polearms.

However, for infiltration and guerilla missions, the more experienced members of the company trained with a wide variety of weapons, typically using whichever they are were comfortable with.

History
Robert journeyed to Essos when he was young, joining the Second Sons mercenary company and serving with them on many missions. However, rather than renewing his contract when it was up, he separated from the group with a handful of warriors he had befriended. They took up jobs from the Free Cities, largely small sabotage jobs against Dothraki camps, and in the process slowly built up a company of refugees and freed slaves. In recognition, the group was nicknamed the Lost Ones, and Robert formally adopted the name.

Soon, the group was sent to Ibben on behalf of the Seven Kingdoms, to negotiate an alliance between the city and Westeros. When the Black Prince formed the Company of the Phoenix, the Lost Ones saw an opportunity for further glory and riches, and decided to merge with the new organisation. The former Lost Ones now fight with the Company of the Phoenix in Westeros.
