Grey Mercenaries are the NPCs that can be hired in the Black Market by Harriers. They are specialized in looting a particular faction through their own expertise. Therefore, when a Harrier must choose a faction to loot, they also need to consider the relevant expertise that each mercenary possesses. For this reason, Harrier cannot hire a mercenary with expertise from a faction related to the trait that Harrier has.&#x20;

The Mercenaries can be hired by Harries with $2080 tokens. Once hired, they remain employed until they start a looting operation. Each mercenary requires a different amount of time for looting luxuries. Therefore, it is important for Harriers to choose a mercenary based on their staking schedules.
