Description | The capital of Pailune and the tribes that surround it. Once branded barbarians, the northerners united under Jian's rule and achieved unprecedented prosperity, but the peace did not last. After Jian died in a Black Bear raid and the Greymanes collapsed, the Jackals' tyranny and persecution began. |
The Pailune Militia is the defensive body of the capital of Pailune and the surrounding tribes. Once branded barbarians, the northerners united under Jian's rule and enjoyed unprecedented prosperity. That peace did not last. Jian was killed during a Black Bears raid and the Greymanes that shielded the region collapsed at the same time. Into that vacuum stepped the Lonely Jackals under Ludvig, whose open tyranny forced the militia back into a defensive, resistance-shaped role.
In-game, the player first encounters the militia during Chapter 6 when the main story pushes north into the frozen mountain territory of Pailune. The militia then acts as the central civil hub for Pailune faction content, with 27 total Faction Quests tied to it.

Like every faction in Crimson Desert, this group sits inside the game's five-tier reputation system: War, Hostile, Neutral, Friendly, and Alliance. Most factions begin at Neutral when first encountered, and reputation shifts as the player completes faction quests, contracts, and related world content. Reaching Alliance unlocks three compounding benefits: allied troops that assist in combat inside the faction's territory, exclusive vendors carrying items not sold anywhere else, and restricted resource nodes such as mining deposits, ingredient patches, and hidden dungeons.
For a complete list of all factions in Crimson Desert, see the Factions overview page.
