Whisper-Scribe

Introduction

Originating from Ravenpeak, Whisper-Scribes collect rumors, secrets, and personal information from their local settlement and use them as a commodity to be sold. Information can either be bought for a price set by the Whisper-Scribe or more commonly traded. It is a requirement for all Whisper-Scribes to offer "A whisper for a whisper.", in other words you are meant to give them a secret in return for a secret they believe you'd like to know.
I wish I hadn't traded with that filthy Rumor-Merchant Tulozin for the name of the woman my husband had slept with. But more so I wish I didn't have to share eight secrets just to get the entire list of names.
