The Beggar's Association, Also translated as Beggar's Sect, is part of the Forces of Justice. Traces its origins to the Old Murim period, maintaining continuous affiliation with Orthodox Factions throughout its centuries-long existence. The organization developed particular renown for its intelligence-gathering networks and information brokerage systems that spanned the martial world.
However, there was a brief episode in their long history when they allied with the Blood Cult under their new leader Jo Seong-Won, who swore loyalty to Jin Woon-Hwi – the most powerful Blood Demon in history.
The exact timing remains uncertain, but at some point in history they permanently returned to the Orthodox factions. This definitely occurred sometime after the Great Calamity.
Legacy[]
The Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palm remains their greatest legacy - a martial art passed down for centuries exclusively to the sect's official successors, serving simultaneously as both a symbol of authority and heritage within their tradition.
They are in possession of sacred artifact known as the Bamboo Stick. Despite unharmful appearance and name, it's actually powerful weapon on par with famous swords, passed down only to the next leader.
