The Clasp
On the surface, they are a criminal syndicate with sects in most major cities, each lead by a Spireling.
However, their first, let us say, questionable action, comes in the characters' backstories. Vax is actually a member of The Clasp. Why you ask? Oh, just because they were going to KIDNAP AND SELL OR MURDER Vex. And they still made Vax bring someone else!!!
The twins weren't anywhere near Emon at this point, so out of the Spirelings we are aware of, this was most likely overseen by Spireling Veekar (may be important later).
Delivered the Blue Crystal / Egg that ended up hatching in to Skysunder during the events of Winter's Crest in Westruun. They attempted to pin this crystal delivery on Realmseer Eskil Ryndarien.
The clasp had Sir Gregory Finch's house under surveillance during Demons in Emon, but gave a general excuse about "business". This was pretty quickly undercut by the fact that they were holding the soul jars containing Uriel Tal'Dorei and his family's souls.
Vox Machina killed Spireling Modeth and stole the soul jars, ultimately restoring them after killing Glabrezu.
They were hired (or possibly just directed by?) Hotis the Rakshasa to assassinate Vox Machina mid-Chroma Conclave arc.
The specific assassin in that case indicated that they were from Stilben, but that Spireling Veekar gave them orders. This is slightly odd, given that Spireling Veekar is the Spireling that Vox Machina spoke to in the sewers of Emon after The Fall of Emon. So either Veekar is now managing both cities, or there is something else going on here.
The Clasp in Emon is now, ostensibly, assisting the former Tal'Dorei Council members in rescuing the citizens of Emon and putting up a manner of resistance to Thordak.
I don't particularly trust this though, and to know why, check out: The Clasp are SUPER DUPER EVIL
