#### The Guild of the Silver Sharpers

Because of the… delicate relationships between the Kingdom Under and their former colony of Wisforgia, the Silver Sharpers and Ordo Exilium do not directly interact, but instead share information, equipment and goals through proxy networks and shell corporations.

Powerbase: Bremen, Laqueos Subsurface (Kingdom Under)

#### The Foundation:

Wuzong’s Foundation mainly operate in the Shenhua deserts, opposing the worst excesses of the Azure Nobles and protecting the drakes from extraplanar threats. Their mission is the closest on the continent to your own, although the drakes trust the celestials for reasons Wuzong will not elaborate upon. Your order’s sanctum in Baghatur was previously located in Shenhua before the city went into martial lockdown and flushed out your agents.

Powerbase(s): Kalgan, Shenhua Desert, Baghatur. Alax, Shenhua Desert, Baghatur. Shenhua, Shenhua Desert, Baghatur. Ikh Khuree, Burkhan Khaldun Mountains, Bagahtur.

#### Cronewatch:

Government sponsored witch hunters, Cronewatch are funded by SILVER, a group your order despises with a passion because of their ties to Leng’s Shadow Lords. They wish to expunge traditional witch magic from Porphyros so as to make the Hyacinth cities more palatable to the common folk, which will boost SILVER’s bottom line. The ground level Witchhunters of Cronewatch tend to be level-headed, well-intentioned, and competent, so your order maintains cordial ties with the group.

Powerbase: Ugarit, Porphyros. Waset, Poprhyros. Jibayl, Porphyros.

#### The Freelancers Guild:

Murcia’s Freelancers are led by Nicolau, who your order have seen morph from a reviled political figure to a dangerous revolutionary, and now to a steward of the lost. Nicolau makes your order nervous, but he is clearly on the side of mortals, if the death of Judgment is any indication of his beliefs. Information and safety is shared readily by the Freelancers, and you do your best to return the favor.

Powerbase(s): Free City of Murcia, Emerald Worldforest. Pressburg, Wisforgia. Jedal Ruins, Laqueos Stretch.

#### The Unchained:

The Unchained are difficult at the best of times, because of how restrictive and culturally encompassing the Imperium’s monarchy is. Most of the Unchained are solely focused on Elven liberation, and their strict racial divide makes it dubious at best they will be much of an improvement over the current rulers of the nation. That being said, Karakal’s experiments have gone so far as to include psychological torture of prisoners of war and other foreign nationals; and his brother in law’s Westbrooke Company seems to inexplicably be involved wherever demonic corruption can be found.

Powerbase: None

Officially, The Unchained have suffered an incident in the border city of Noceo. According to official news sources from the Imperium, the Unchained met their ends at the hands of rogue members of the Murcian Freelancers, who acted “for the good of the kingdom” by providing the Sun King with knowledge of their treasonous plans. The leaders of the group have been imprisoned or executed, the rest forced into exile or abdication of their titles. Tenuous links between the Unchained and Imperial Governor Daoyuan, current heir to the throne of the Imperium have also been established. The Imperial Governor has been unable to be located for questioning.

Unofficially, The Unchained are likely compromised or outright defunct after their failed attempt on Karakal’s life. Order recommends severance of contact with the group, and attempting contact with Karakal, as the normally isolationist monarch has recently reached out to the Freelancers in reference to a “diplomatic incident” according to agents within Murcia. The elves have previously proven valuable in Inquisitorial business, despite their restrictive definition on lives worth saving.
