Mythos
The Brotherhood is a new concept brought forth by Guildmaster Phrae to unite the Guild’s of the Rogues under a single banner. Using his skills as a trained Assassin, Phrae manipulated political entities both inside and outside of the fleet in order to garner certain protections for the Guilds of the Fleet. Chaos struck when mayors and governors fell ill or stricken with a sudden case of death. In the moments of anarchy, Phrae put his plans into motion.
The concept was simple; establish a new kind of criminal organization to run the Fleet’s various Guild Halls instead of having a single point of representation to the Captain’s Council. Phrae looked to the historical revolt of the Sicilian Vespers and their battle cry of "Morte Alla Francia, Italia Avanti" and Arabic slang terms such as mu'afa (safety, protection) to concept the Shadow Brotherhood.
The brotherhood itself has just taken root in the Rogues and is currently expanding its influence throughout the Guilds to use them for various nefarious activities such as illicit trade, coin laundering, forgery, medical services, establishment of safe-houses theft, and perhaps the dearest to Master Phrae – Assassination.
Phrae runs the organization in various taverns and inns throughout Eilean er Coayl Grayse as well as specific guild houses; but his primary base of operations is from his manor high in the hills of the island; nestled in the tropical environment where it is hard to reach without knowing the safe path to the manor with all sorts of natural defenses as well as a jungle rife with traps, pitfalls and restless assassins.
Purpose
The Shadow Brotherhood exists to assist Guild Master Phrae in the administration of the guilds within the fleet and act as support to the Fleet Guild Master. Duties include:
• Correspondence between the Guilds as well as between the Guilds and the Fleet • Administration of guild business • Representation of Rogues Emiratis
