The Curved Blade
The Beginnings of The Curved Blade
The Curved Blade began as a small-time Thieves Guild in The Town of Port Eventide just over twenty years ago by a mysterious figure known as The Black Robed One. Over the years the Guild has grown tenfold recruiting members, buying goods and services, investing in wagons and ships and buying Residential and Commercial properties. A Chapter House of the Guild has grown in almost every Town and City within The Kingdom of Elosia, and even a few in Independent Elosia. The Guild have high hopes of growing Chapter Houses in The Kingdoms of Pelosia and the Nation of Thentia. The Guild does have operatives working in most Cities and major Towns in many Nations, even The Talosian Empire's far reaches.
"That's the fourth Noble this week assassinated, This is the work of Evil, Who is behind this?"
"It must be the Talosian's, who else can it be?"
"There isn't any Guild in our City powerful enough to be doing this, is their?"
"No my Lord, none that we know of"
-The Master of Law in The Port City of Stars Reach asks this question in the council meeting.
No Traces
The Guild prides itself on leaving no trace when involved in assassinations or other illicit activities, if an operative is seen, they know to dispose of the witness or they will end up as food for the sewer creatures.
Powerful and Above the Law
"It's going well Master, you agree?"
"Yes, as always Vhaegar, you visited that guard Captain as i requested?"
"Yes Master, the shipment arrives in two days, the usual guards will be on the Gateway, as always, no problem"
"Good, Good, there had better not be any problems, or you know what to do"
"Yes Master"
-A Chapter Head talking with an underling
The Curved Blade know who to bribe, who to intimidate, who to steal from, who to kill and who to implicate. They are masters of their profession and are above the law. They have corrupt officials, Guard Captains and Commoners among others on their pay-roll, and if any report is incorrect from anyone of them, they know they have just sealed their own fate, and had better make it right or leave the City at once and never return.
