CRIMINAL ORGANIZATIONS
Peel - Peel is a tall, lean, dark Human in charge of the mafia in Praxis. Peepl
oversees most of the city's organized crime, including all the organizations
mentioned below. He runs a gambling ring, as well as extortion, blackmail
and smuggling activity within the city walls. He is sometimes referred to
as the 'Elven Mafia' due to the number of Half-elves within his inner circle.
Uncle Odo’s Consortium - Remnant Folke thief guild, which used to be the predominant criminal organization
of Praxis City, famous for cat burglars and lock picking, until former Watch
Detective Remy Vancord and paladin General Talbo Umbertoe waged a successful
campaign against them, exiling many of their leaders to other colonies. The
Consortium still owns a few massage parlors and minor gambling rings in the
Folke quarter, and they still have a few lock picking experts around. As the
lesser organization, they pay a percentage of any profit to Peel. And except
for the occasional lock-picking job, they rarely operate outside the Folketown.
Kidymkus - The leader of
a were-rat rogue gang, loose association with Peel. His territory includes
the Alleys and the Sewer.
The Shadow Fist Gang - The Shadow Fist Gang is a band of Half-orc thugs that prey on visitors to
the Orc Warren and the Warehouse District at night. Organized illegal fighting
matches and cockfights, as well as the most common place to look for a "thug
for hire."
The Paper Dragon - A spy network, or "Information Merchant Clearing House, the Paper Dragon
is the place to go to find anything the criminal element knows - as long as
you don't mind them knowin that you're interested. You never know, you may
discover something that may be of interest to the criminal underworld - and
they're always willing to pay. The Paper Dragon is run by Fafnir Savage, proprietor
of the Doom Lounge in the Warehouse District.
Roanoke Smuggling Cartel - This is an outside organization that exerts some influence on Praxis City,
based in the nearby northern Aug colony of Roanoke. No one knows who is ultimately
in charge of the Cartel, although a half-elf pirate named T’nar is definitely
an important player. This organization smuggles fenced pirate goods, Esana
products, the occasional monster, and anything else the Praxis government
has deemed contraband. They have several contacts with Peel’s organization,
in order to deliver goods.
