Special Service Legion is the special operations force of the Clavic army. They are also known as the "Greybacks" because of the grey cloaks they wear in lieu of the orange ones.
The SSL was commissioned almost immediately after the Clavic campaigns started to enable smaller, more elite units to perform operations that required specialized training. The exact number of Greybacks in service is kept classified, though the Legion's reputation for its rigorous candidacy program points toward there being very few of them.
Selection and Training
Candidates are taken on a volunteer basis only. Anyone in the Clavic army or navy may try out for the Special Service Legion, however, volunteer numbers remain very low due to the unique "washout" system in place: any candidate who fails the training is killed as training for the other candidates.
