Front

A front is a special kind of safe house. Fronts are typically set up in larger buildings than common domiciles, often posing as merchant shops, taverns, or other places of commerce. These businesses are often legitimate; they’re run by Veils posing as tradesmen, and they often have a small staff working for them to ensure the business runs smoothly. These staffers, of course, have no idea the business is a mask to cover the building’s true purpose, and the guild enjoys a small profit from the money the business brings in annually. While fronts serve the same purpose as safe houses, they’re more often used for team or cell meetings and guild business. After all, no one would bat an eye at a tavern of suitable size being filled with two dozen guests; the same cannot be said for a commoner’s cottage. Veils that run fronts, keep a supply of equipment hidden on location, ready to be supplied to guild members in need. Fronts are also used to sell special equipment created by the guild to members who need it.
