Purple Rose

Evil Aligned

From time to time many of the more affluent folk throughout the realm have need of a particular service. It's a necessity that most wouldn't speak of around polite company, and only comes up when another member of the upper class society oversteps their bounds, or makes a social faux-pas that simply can't be forgiven. This service, of course, is the honored tradition of an elegant assassination. Not your typical throat slash or strangulation; no, The Purple Rose are responsible for the subtler approaches, and are well known among the upper elite.
An agent of The Purple Rose may take weeks to get the job done, but they will invariably arrange things to look like an accident, or natural causes. They may infiltrate the family, posing as a member of a more powerful noble house than that of the target. Cover stories are oft elaborate and well thought out; a beautiful debutante making herself available for potential suitors, a wealthy land owner searching for a bride to bear his children, or even a distant, aging cousin with no heir, but wealth beyond count that he must leave to someone, you see...
