The Maris Alliance
The Maris Alliance occupies some of the most profitable land in Iorifos, and some of the largest tracts of it, save comparing it to Utresh with its vast desert. It is the center of trade and markets for the continent, and it is known that whatever you seek can be acquired somewhere within its borders, usually from the port city of Douka. Home to the bankers, the merchants, the traders and the moneychangers, if there is profit to be had, odds are, you’re going to find a Marisian involved in it. The Thieves’ Guild has been spreading to this kingdom as well, and it is spoken of as a rot from within, without a good way to combat it.
Marisians look down on those without means, without homes, the poor and the destitute, and will shoo any out of any city, pushing them to the fringes of society without a second thought. I you’re not turning a profit, then you aren’t worth the time of day.
This kingdom is ruled by a powerful organization called The Traders’ Union. The Union has a stranglehold on all business within the kingdom and it is said that they have eyes everywhere. Made up of the most powerful business and trade magnates present in the kingdom, they keep the money flowing and the questions stoppered. Many have whispered that the Thieves’ Guild would be preferable, for at least they own their doings.
