I have heard that there can only be three Nightingales at a time, canon-wise. Is this true? It would make no sense if it were, because Mercer was still technically a Nightingale when the Dragonborn and Brynjolf were made into ones. Sure, their skills were not "up tp par", but their oaths were still in effect. We only saw THREE Nightingales as an introduction to the faction, but surely there can be more than just three.

All in all, can there be many Nightingales at once? I would really like to know, because I was considering turning one of OCs into for my own stories.
