Qohor's city guard is made up entirely of Unsullied, each carrying a spear with a braid of human hair.[2]

About
Qohorik craftsmen are renowned throughout the Free Cities. Their blacksmiths have the ability to meld paint in with the metals. Some blacksmiths claim to know how to reforge Valyrian steel. The wood from the Forest of Qohor is sought after. The Qohorik worship the Black Goat. [3]
History
During the Century of Blood, the Dothraki were stopped by the Unsullied in the bloody Battle of Qohor.[2] Qohor and Norvos broke Volantene power on the Rhoyne in a battle involving fire galleys on Dagger Lake.[4]
Shortly after being created, the Golden Company sacked Qohor, after Qohor refused to honor the contract it had made with the Golden Company. This event established the reputation of the sellword company quickly.[5]
When they were young, Viserys and Daenerys Targaryen spent some time in Qohor when they were wandering from place to place.
