Dogs of the Lord
The Dogs of the Lord was a group of warriors working under Grand Inquisitor and Master Templar Tomás de Torquemada in 15th century Spain.
History
Little is known about the Dogs of the Lord, other than they carried out orders directly from Torquemada. One of these orders was the elimination of the de Heredia family carried out by the leaders of Fort Alphonso, Pedrosa and Duran. Though the son of the de Heredia family, Knight Horacio de Heredia, along with the Spanish Brotherhood of Assassins put an end to both perpetrators.[1]
Another known member of this group was the Inquisitor Gustavo Ramírez who aided Torquemada in his quest to retrieve the Apple of Eden and the pieces of the Shattered Staff of Eden scattered around Spain.[2] Though the Assassins prevented the former from falling into Torquemada's hands, Ramírez, by way of turncoat Diego de Alvarado, managed to retrieve two Staff pieces before being betrayed by Alvarado.[3]
