Often considered the de facto rich kids club of Lor, Centaur 21 is more than what meets the eye.

## Overview

On the surface, Centaur 21 looks like a gathering for Swordhaven's elite, for power and power to rub shoulders and preen in each other's egos. The bitter and the small minded would often exclaim as such. However, Centaur 21 was not built on ego alone. Honeyed words and polite smiles serve only as tools for the shrewedness of Cysero's organisation. They have their fingers in all areas of matters in both Swordhaven, and much of the world beyond.

Centaur 21 admits only those already of great wealth and competence, breeding success from success. Their goal? Gain power, throw some epic parties along the way, and look awesome doing it.

Cysero's very expensive and very exclusive clubhouse located near the centre of Swordhaven serves as the club's headquarters. It is both luxury real estate and party house for its members. The Centaur 21's building has emerald infused windows and lined with gold, and the walls are plated with platinum.

The blatant show of wealth is as much a boast as a statement, powerful magic wards the entire mansion while its temptation is flaunted to the world. No aspring thief has been able to break in to Centaur 21, although not for lack of trying.

The highly coveted membership invitations are few and far between, and being granted entrance to the clubhouse is definitive proof of success, and evidence of the amount of power the individual commands. Anyone who is anyone is expected to at some point walk through those doors. Centaur 21 has significant pull over Swordhaven, and provides lucrative benefits to its members. While not nearly as influential in other cities, membership goes a long way to bending the ears of the world's elite. Although high birth helps, it's not unknown for commoners to reach the lofty heights that most can only dream of.

Centaur 21 is not only about partying however, the members contain some very high caliber artisans and adventurers, all of whom are at the pinnacle of their respective crafts. Centaur 21 runs high end services throughout the world, mostly catering to those in their own circles. Few places in the world can one observe such artistic use of wealth and influence, both of which are second nature to members of Centaur 21. Some make a game of buying out struggling businesses, or, for those more fond of the chase, bankrupting them first, then buying the shell into submission.

Centaur 21 is also famous of it's rating system of other services, with members well known for their difficulty to please and their quickness to anger, business owners live in fear of the day they receive someone with that recognisable 'C' on the gold and green badge. Anywhere that recieves even one star is immediately frequented by the masses.

To date, there exists only a single establishment that isn't run by a Centaur 21 member to ever hold a 5 star rating. Swordhaven's SleuthHound Inn, run by Yulgar, who has reportedly turned down several invitations into the highly exclusive organisation.
