The Weaving Providence

The weaving providence barely qualify as a faction in that their most notable endeavours are their regular 'scuffles' with the Mirrored when their jobs intersect though their reputation precedes them in all circles, they don't take money, they can't be bought or sponsored and they don't push to recruit members... they are one of the loosest organisations in Alturis for this reason.
They are acknowledged to have a pecking order and a leader loosely known as 'The Endlessly Hemming' or 'The Endless' who is rumoured to have founded the organisation themselves centuries ago and is gifted with something known as 'The Sight'.
In terms of payment, a Providence member doesn't do the work with money or reward in mind. They simply know that the rewards and punishments are gifted by the fates and always ALWAYS fair.
For that is the core value of the Weaving Providence. Fate. Those who become a part of the Providence don't do so because they want profits or because of their sadism and violent tendencies, that life is for the Mirrored and other thieves guilds. Those that join the Providence do so because they believe they are part of a higher purpose, ensuring fate punishes and protects those that deserve it. It is what makes them so dangerous, a member of the providence would, in a second, give their lives to ensure their target is vanquished and would not care for morals or their own safety in the moment. They know their purpose and have seen what awaits them on the other side.
It is also because of this that they don't chase or search for targets, life is precious and they know that walking their current path in life will lead them to their targets... fate is funny like that... They merely wait for the sign that they can strike.

Structure

The Weaving Providence does not have many members, all members were taught by another member of the Weaving Providence and deemed 'good' enough to earn the necessary arcane tattoos to become a member of the tapestry that is the organisation.
These tattoos are generally portrayed as a small coloured threadlike line on their arm that looks like a scar at first glance.

Culture

The tattoo is the key to the Weaving Providence.
This tattoo allows an individual to access a space known as 'The Nightmare' where they can commune with other members of the Providence and find jobs. Upon accepting a job they will wake up with a Black dagger in their closed hand and their thread tattoo has reformed into the words associated with their job.

History

The organisation are deeply secretive though there is a certainty that a character known as 'The Endless' leads them by using an artefact known as the Dream Wall.

Territories

They have their main base somewhere in Rasmorae... allegedly the leader utilises an artefact known as a 'dream wall' to assist them in understanding the purpose of every member of the Woven Providence and offer them jobs from the wall itself.
None know where this base or dream wall is. Though many believe it to be in the area of Fallrock beneath the many layers of ruins.
The dream wall is often seen in visions by members of the woven providence and is described as an endlessly large black obsidian wall with patterns and etchings from all time and times to come displayed upon it.
The stone of the dream wall is broken away to form a Korumbit dagger.
