Guild of Thieves Lore

Lost in the alleyways of Darkhaven, hidden behind false walls and secret doors, lies the guild of thieves. Many who venture into their hideaway never leave.

Many believe death takes them, but the magic is so strong there that anything is possible. Booby trapped and guarded against outsiders, it is a haven for those thieves that decide to band together and join a society that helps each other, and shares each other's secrets. Back before Darkhaven stood as it does today, two large men guarded the entrance to the guild, to protect not only those inside, but to keep out those lords and ladies that decide that the guild was responsible for raiding their coffers, and then decide to take the law into their own hands. From those early beginnings, the guild's fortune grew, and so did it's fame, to such a degree that they were forced underground, and thus today they sit in the shadows, awaiting their next opportunities.

Many have served the guild faithfully, but those in service now stand in high regard. From Dirth the bumbling shopkeep, to Pynn, the master assassin, who trains those not so experienced in the art of thievery. Then there is Stelan the healer turned thief. His past was riddled by patients who found moneybags, jewelry and even pieces of clothing disappearing after being treated by the man. And of course, our most recent employee, Gaspar who, after being fired from every pub this side of Ocean Keep, finds refuge serving drink to men and women of his own ilk. However, after that hit on the head he has never been quite the same. And thus we arrive at the present, a time of uncertainty and change, a time of careful prowling and secret gathering. This is our guild.

Stealth, swiftness and secrecy are but a handful of the threads that entwined conceive the Art of Thievery. Together the thieves are as one, and the Guild is a place of camaraderie and learning the art.
