The Mercykiller wyrm is a breed of wyvern bred over the last centuries, kept first by the Sodkillers and then, following the Great Upheaval, the Mercykillers. Bred for ferocity, these creatures are kept on the Outlands at a secluded location, with a single wyrm kept in Sigil at the Tower of the Wyrm for prisoner intimidation and, at times, execution. All Mercykiller wyrms are carefully watched over by the faction, with any attempts at harm, theft, or harassment quickly responded to with full force.

These creatures are the inspiration for the symbol of the Mercykillers; massive serpentine beasts almost 30 feet long, green-scaled, with thick hide and nearly vestigal wings. Even the creatures's venom has been altered; over many generations of breeding, its venom now works as a truth serum, rendering those suffering from its effects unable to avoid the temptation to answer any question posed to them with the truth.
