This is one of their only three common traits, along with their elven heritage, and their desire to bring about the end of civilization.These masterminds never show their faces as the true owners of the bakeries that they own. The bakery presented here (at some point) has hired a halfling assassin as its face -- he is the one humanoid who knows the true owners. Acting as the shop's proprietor, a hired hit man, and (often simultaneously) the agent sent to gather the "special" ingredients necessary for their most diabolical confections.A bakery serves three main purposes. First, as a "front" -- a source of steady income and able to handle some money laundering. Second, as a point of contact among cell members, and for senior members to contact the cell. Third, as a location to prepare and distribute their magically delicious baked ills.- - - *) Note that in a d20 Modern game, their store name may be written using the ordinal of "Q" as 17-Elven, and thus their evil bakeries are easily confused with popular convenience stores.</blockquote>
