[QUOTE="Bayushi_seikuro, post: 8198326, member: 7024851"] I think one thing I would use for factions and recognizing their agents are going to be little things like code phrases. There was a great short story from Dark Sun about the Veiled Alliance, an underground to protect the preserver magi from all their enemies. Since one of their founders had been a templar of one of the god-kings (or whatever you call them), he designed the Alliance to work in cells and to spot for betrayals. Their catch phrase was "My father was a templar," and the response was "My mother was a gardener." For recognition too, there are other things you can use. In John Wick's 7th Sea, one faction uses their longcoats and they know how to recognize another agent that way. And then they can send messages without making contact - for instance, leaving every other button unbuttoned might mean something. I know that pulling the collar up, for instance, means 'do not contact me, I'm being followed' /ramble [/QUOTE]
