Unlike Ashlar’s capital city, Languard, Dulwich does not have a single, dominant thieves’ guild. Rather, a patchwork of minor gangs struggle incessantly among themselves for territory, standing and profit. Most such gangs number no more than a dozen individuals, and most of their members are not particularly skilled. Dulwich’s two most notable gangs are:
• The Shadow Spiders: The most powerful (and violent) of Dulwich’s gangs is the Shadow Spiders. Most of the other smaller gangs pay a proportion of their take to the Shadow Spiders to avoid bloodshed. Led by Voitto Markku, the Shadow Spiders lair at the Golden Skull tavern.
• The Black Cats: The halfling burglar Almina Mastonen (CN female halfling thief) leads the Black Cats gang. Popular with the peasantfolk, as the gang is generous with their ill-gotten gains, the Black Cats maintain several safe houses about the town. Almina works at the exclusive East Gate Inn and uses her access to Dulwich's monied folk to plan her gang's jobs.
