Far Delvers

“Members of the Delvers family may appear as nothing but simple traders and taverners, honourable businessmen even, but it is clear there is something else to them, fearful whispers say they lurk in the shadows with unclear motives, what are they after? Who do they serve? And where are they getting those fabulous costumes... also, they serve some really good noodles. Don’t give me that look, its true!” – Anonymous Steamwheedle Cartel Informer.

Introduction

The Far Delvers where founded by the former pirate Madam Xing, who once plundered the seas of Pandaria and Zandalar, left her retirement to establish a neutral haven in the coasts of Tol Barad, the Shipwrecks Tavern, for anyone to visit despite of background, loyalties or allegiances. While they may appear as simple businessman at first, the Far Delvers where created to be the most versatile branch of the Black Market Auction House, one capable of acquiring, transporting, distributing and securing goods for the Market, treasure hunting tombs, temples and any kind of locations that others would not dare to delve into, expanding trade business with other organizations and the elimination of harmful individuals or groups to the Black Market.

The Blood Lotus

Before the Delvers, Madam Xing lead a pirate fleet of 3 ships, after Pandaria’s Landfall and due to her old age, her daughter Lan Shaopaw took the lead until she was killed at the end of the third burning legion invasion, too old to effectively retake the spot and with no other heirs, Madam Xing negotiates an armistice and returns half of her plundered treasure, with the other half “accidentally” sinking on the sea with her flagship, Townlongs revenge.

The Shipwrecks Cove

After the Fourth War, Madam Xing comes out of retirement, creating the Far Delvers and The Shipwrecks Tavern to be her heir, recruiting those with nothing to lose or nowhere to go, the Delvers manage to build and run said Tavern, as well as position themselves as a valuable branch of the Black Market Auction House, slowly bonding as a true family of misfits.

The Golden Serpent

The Golden Serpent is the last remaining ship of the Madam’s old fleet, and the most recent one. It was originally a part of Zandalars Golden Fleet, until it was stolen and reshaped. The bow was replaced by an Onyx Jade Serpent’s head, and the roof was replaced with a Pandaren design, now showing the delvers flag with pride, and moving goods all over Azeroth with its crew, it is one of their most valuable assets.
