The Crow Brothers are a Hostile faction devoted to Draven, the Crowcaller, who is the son of Hexe Marie and the leader of this cult-like group. They learn Draven's techniques of slaughter, receive a portion of his authority, and wield the same wicked sorcery he does. They also resemble him in silhouette and style, from the feathered cloaks to the dual-sword fighting stance, and they constantly crave their master's affection and recognition, which makes them aggressive and unpredictable in battle.
Draven's larger agenda is to let out the evil souls sealed inside Heaven's Gate so he can rule a world built on fear and chaos. The Crow Brothers are the hands that carry out that plan across Hernand and Demeniss, and they are heavily tied into the Chapter 5 main-story arc Crowcaller.
Draven is fought a total of three times across the main story: first at Muckroot Ranch in Hernand, then at the Spire of Soaring in northern Demeniss, and finally for good at Crow's Nest, which caps off Chapter 5. Each encounter features multiple phases, shadow-based movement, and fast aerial dive attacks, and grappling is frequently recommended to build stagger and create burst damage openings.

Hostile factions sit below Neutral in the game's five-tier reputation ladder, which runs War, Hostile, Neutral, Friendly, and Alliance. Groups at War or Hostile attack on sight and impose reputation penalties for entering their territory, which means the usual way to interact with this faction is through combat, bounty hunting, and the clear-the-stronghold style of faction quest. Reputation can still shift if the player completes specific story objectives that strike at the faction's leadership or disrupt their operations.
