The Sword Brethren, also known as Order of the Swordbrethren or Livonian Brothers of the Sword, is a group of Christian crusaders active during the Medieval era. Founded privately in Bremen in 1197 but later established as a military order in 1202. It merges with the Teutonic Order in 1237. The leader is Grand Master Volkwin von Winterstatten. Unknown to the Sword Brethren, many of their members originating in Oldenburg are werewolf Kinfolk and a small pack of Fenrir operates within the order.
They fought unknowingly for the Ventrue against the Tzimisce minions in Moravia.
