Shadow Network

An independent information broker, the Shadow Network has spies and informants throughout Xorik. Since the Shadow Network’s creation several centuries ago, the organization has been led by the enigmatic Masked Lord. The Shadow Network is not necessarily evil, but more of an independent organization that provides its services to anyone willing to pay from monarchies to merchants. Agents of the Shadow Network are commonly hired as spies or thieves, but they also offer well trained assassins to wealthy clients. However, the Shadow Network primarily trades in secrets. The organization views information as power and more valuable than gold. The Shadow Network reach grew deeper during the Great War as all sides needed information and spies, and had gold to spare. Now after the Dawn Treaty, the Shadow Network continues to profit off the cold war tensions between Thamar and Boriss.
The Party has fought with the organization several times and most recently eliminated one of their leaders, Dimitri, who led the Shadow Network's operations in Sol.

For Player Characters:

The shadowy organization is always looking to expand its network across the continent, so it welcomes new recruits, especially those that have shown a willingness to get their hands dirty. The Shadow Network offers good money for good service and can assist characters if they get into any sort of trouble.
