I think since they are not going to have the poison & they are hanging out with an Owlbear, I might call them Giant Sweat Bees, or Bumble Bees, depending on the shape you want, or maybe make them a merged creature too. For example Giant Stinging Ladybirds.
I think you said that one of the dragons is Lawful Good? Sounds to me like it would be the one to trade in arms with the enemies to keep the dragon empire in check. The LG dragon benefits from the pact for the purposes of law, but recognizes it must have a counterweight, for its own sake (unchecked empires eventually rot from within)
Having an owlbear as a desert adapted hybrid like a Vulture-Cheetah or an Ostrich-Camel would be a neat way to “mutate” the creature.

Those hobgoblins are going to need a new mercenary band name now that they are working with the characters. Is the Spilled Blood Pact too on the nose?
