Essandee Guild

The Essandee Guild is a banner head to help legitimize the some of the operations of the more illicit trades. While there may never be laws or rules allowing for assassinations, there is room in governance for mercenary and forgery work as well as the procurement of taboo herbs and medicines, and perhaps even smuggling, and thieving (under the right conditions), this is what the Essandee Guild hopes to promote.

As much as any good ruling party understands the necessity of a black market and the illicit trades, so too does the Essandee Guild understand the need for their voice to at least be present while under a ruling party. The leadership of the Essandee Guild is well known as they are the Pontiffs of Deep Town.

Members of the Essandee Guild are not ones to advertise their association with the guild itself, as doing so would tie them to the illicit trades they ply, and yet as an operative of the underbelly of society, you still want to know who you are talking to and where their interests are. The guild does promote an unofficial emblem: A simple starburst originating in the center and working its way outward to a solid circle. The emblem can be any number of designs that include this from the simple to the elaborate. This type of symbol has also been in common fashion throughout the years so it is hard to tell if someone is with the Essandee or just slightly out of fashion.
