Very little is known about the formation of the Night Brigade. There was once a group on [[Threnody]] that sought to free their homeland from the [[Evil]]; it is possible that it might have ties to the mercenary company.{{wob ref|12720}} What is known is that the Brigade was formed of Threnodites, and has somehow gained the ability to command the [[shade]]s. At some point, they have also acquired a spaceship, and a reputation for brutality.{{book ref|tsm|27}}
The Night Brigade began hunting [[Nomad]] some time after he passed on his [[Dawnshard]]. He initially turned himself in, hoping that he would be let go once they realized he no longer held their prize. However, he soon discovered that they would be able to turn him into a [[Hemalurgy|spike]] which they could then use for tracking down the Dawnshard's current holder. Nomad managed to flee them then, and has been on the run since, as the Night Brigade pursues him ceaselessly
After Nomad arrived on [[Canticle]], the Night Brigade appeared only hours later, flying into the planet's orbit and beginning their search.{{book ref|tsm|27}} A group of Night Brigade's members, including staff seargant [[Truth-Is-Waiting]] and the [[Admiral]] herself, descended upon the surface. They stole one of the local house ships in order to blend in with the people of the Canticle and question them as to Nomad's whereabouts. Before they were able to locate him, Nomad managed to skip to another planet, eluding them again. However, during the same search, Truth-Is-Waiting discovered that the planet held a [[Scadrial|Scadrian]] research outpost, which could be questioned for information.{{book ref|tsm|epilogue}}
