Okay, to expand on what I said earlier (I was at work): a Mwangi Expanse game has SO MUCH POTENTIAL for wild stuff. Shory archeology! The oldest elf culture! Orc and lizardfolk friends! Astronomy! Hunting down those racist Order of the Nail bastards! Pirates! There’s so much variety, and none of it is boring traditional fantasy.

Surely you mean Order of the Coil? I think they are the most hated of Hellknight orders, even worse than the Order of the Chain.
The Order of the Nail has some problems, but it should be as reformable as the Lantern Bearers were.

As in, unbelievably and by a clumsy retcon?

I think it was the Order of the Nail hanging out in Sargava, and I really don’t think you can redeem “colonial ‘civilization’ at all costs, with no mercy” as a premise for an org. They make easy baddies, especially if the Vidrian revolution has put them on the run.

The Order of the Nail has their headquarters in Korvosa in Varisia, with no indication that they are active in the Mwangi Expanse at all.
I think somebody was confusing them with the utterly irredeemable Order of the Coil.

Their role as Cossacks during times of civil unrest and as shock troops in Korvosa's campaign to ethnically cleanse the Shoanti from its territory below the Storval Rise make them irredeemable enough, frankly.
