The Caterans are a guild of professional assassins, mercenaries, thieves and horrors that roam the back alleys of the marketplace of Mercadia City, ready to terrorize or murder anyone on the plane of Mercadia for the right price.[1]

Description

They take on many types of violent and illicit tasks, including the use of brute force, extortion, intimidation, highway robbery, kidnapping, slavery, and assassination.

Speculative origin

A dementia summoner named Cateran once lived in Otaria on Dominaria. According to one myth, he inherited a world as his playground as a reward for his skills at summoning monsters. This man may be the originator of the caterans of Mercadia.[2]
