The Guild of Nightwatchmen
Granted their charter by the Directorship in order to curb the growth of the private armies of bodyguards being raised by Greyhawk's wealthier citizens and to avoid spending further civic funds on expanding the City Watch to maintain law and order on the streets, the Guild of Nightwatchmen is a privately funded body providing a variety of static security, street patrol and escort services.
Recruits to the Nightwatchmen's Guild are examined for membership by a panel of senior Nightwatchmen. The guild employs several priests of St. Cuthbert (the guild's patron deity; hence the members preference for cudgels while on duty) specifically to cast healing spells, to cast know alignment at interviews (the guild only employs those of lawful good and lawful neutral alignments, although rarely a neutral good applicant is ac cepted) and to maintain the guild shrine. The composition of Nightwatchmen patrols, details of their operations, and the senior NPCs can be found m Chapter 2.
