Does Ishgard have any implications of mercenary use, or do they mainly stick to their knights? I'm trying to think of a hook a Roegadyn could have there, but I'm thinking it may be more 'realistic' to have them mainly stick around Camp Dragonhead with a reason for going to Ishgard proper of 'yea I wanna see what's past those big dumb gates'.
House Fortemps is known for taking in mercs and treating them respectfully enough compared to the other houses! I believe his house will be the one to go to for mercs to serve Ishgard in change of coin. As well in several quests it is mentioned that the nobles are happy enough to throw gil at whoever comes to save their asses atm. So gil could totally be a wonderful drive to go behind the gates.
