A Dezgra is a Clan term for a disgraced individual or unit. This disgrace can come from either refusing orders, panicking in the face of the enemy or committing dishonorable conduct.[1][2] It may even come from being roundly defeated by an enemy considered inferior. The term also refers to the ceremony where a unit is marked and punished.
Any unit bearing this name is considered "tainted" and honorable warriors avoid dealings with the unit as much as possible. This can restrict the unit being involved in bids and when bid into combat, the actions it can take. Dezgra units are given poor quality replacements and looked down upon by all the Clan.
For example, the Falcon Guards were considered a dezgra unit after their defeat on Twycross. The unit was caught in a trap and wiped out to nearly the last man.
