A thieves’ guild in Westgate, in competition with the Night Masks.
This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
The Night Masks is a guild, of sorts, for thieves and assassins and various other shady types. The organization is limited to Westgate, but wields a great deal of power within that city. They seek to absorb or destroy other local organizations including the Shore Patrol.
The Night Masks are organized into three distinct groups, with different types of hierarchies and titles, mainly to confuse infiltrators and spies.
The Night Masks, including all the smaller subgroups, are led by a council of five called the Pentad. The members of the Pentad are not known to the general members, to minimize the risk of betrayal; like most other criminal organizations the leadership of the Night Masks is careful and paranoid.
