About
The Gewehr Wraiths are a guild of mercenaries. They originally operated only within Farrel, but expanded into Veracia, with the assassination of Connel. This action has drawn extremely hostile attention from the Ensigerum , who have all but decided to eradicate them, as mentioned here.
"Gewehr" is German for Rifle.
Abilities
So far they have displayed a proficiency in firearms, and maybe even a preference for them (shown here, where a knife or dagger would've been arguably a more efficient and silent way of killing). More than likely, they are heavily trained to use and maintain projectile weapons, giving them an advantage over other assassination/mercenary organizations using more "traditional" or "primitive" weaponry. However, we know from Jon's bit of male bonding with Ian Samael that they're not bad at hand-to-hand combat either. Jon has indicated that they know something about magic, whether or not they're practitioners.
They seem to act as single units, or small teams, one covering short range, the other long range.

- Gabriel's henchman, recurring headquarters guy

Other members have appeared from time to time, but haven't been named yet.
