[QUOTE="trappedslider, post: 6280865, member: 41932"] So, i have a small write up for my Crystalshore city setting of the local thieves guild Angelic Shadows is the name of the local thieves guild. It's membership is said to be around 50 or 60 but no one other than it's own members know. The guild runs the red light district for the most part, handing out bribes to the city guard and other members of the justice ministry as needed. They also have a presence in the harbor with smuggling goods in and out of the city. It's also rumored that one of the board members of Merakesh LTD is either on the payroll or even a member of the thieves guild. The guild does have however a set code in which crimes and actives they par take in. Mainly no killing for money, only in self defense, this along with the bribes explains why the Justice department turns a blind eye to the thieves guild. They also pick pockets cuz you know you gotta pick a pocket or two (cookie to the poster who guesses that reference first ) They have also in the past worked to help rig elections, along iwth providing additional security for Merakesh LTD and the Merakesh Family, They also run or are silent partners in a number of business around the city. They will on occasion give up a low ranking member to help keep the peace, for the most part however the common folk think they are just hired hugs and run the brothels and the merchants either shrug their shoulders and do the best they can or hope they don't get robbed or have something stolen. They also have contacts with other groups in other places, mainly just agreements about not working in each others areas that sort of thing. How ever i think it's week and needs more juice or meat, any suggestions? [/QUOTE]
