[QUOTE="Zarrock God of Evil, post: 240132, member: 2025"] [i] The FR power groups don't exactly step on each others toes too much - you'll find plenty of descriptions on this in LoD. The Zhentarim, Iron Throne, Shadow Thieves and Nights Mask - for instance - only operate inside limited geographical areas. Most of them are not even in competition for the same areas.
