Thieves Guild

The Thieves' Guild is a criminal organization operating in the shadows of the city of Khorinis. Their hideout is located in the old, long-forgotten sewer system beneath the city, accessible through an entrance by the sea and a door in the inn "The Sleeping Moneybag." Aspiring members receive the key to the sewers from the enforcer Attila without being told where the entrance is – a precaution to prevent the guild from being betrayed to the militia. Those who find the way in must pass an initiation test, usually stealing a valuable item within a set time. Full members learn the thieves' sign – a distinctive nod that allows them to identify one another without blowing their cover. The guild is led by Cassia and counts pickpockets, burglars, fences, and even a contract killer among its ranks. Its members are scattered throughout the city, disguised as merchants, innkeepers, and tavern owners.
