Grey Cloaks of Svimohzia
Gray Cloaks
The Gray Cloaks are a criminal organization that survived the Purging. Helshan Zide (see Who's Who in Confédération d'Ahznomahn , above) commands this band of thieves and murderers with a shrewd business sense and inhuman ruthlessness. Serving as his lieutenants are his elite force of expert killers called the sedizehn, or “silent knife” (see Chapter Two: Classes and Paths). Beneath them is a web of thieves and killers who prowl Zha-nehzmish, Capital of Ahznomahn, Garden of Svimohzia in search for work and information.Activities
Gray Cloaks are spies and assassins. They sell their services to the highest bidder, including Kalamaran spies, Brolenese slavers, Draskan emigrants and even Meznamish spies. They are the most despised group in the city. The Golden Alliance works to find Helshan Zide, as he represents a major threat to their organization.Short-term goals
The Gray Cloaks exist to turn a profit. They do not care who they work for or what crimes they commit, so long as they control the underworld. Loyal to Helshan Zide, they uncover secrets in politics to extort Parliament and guarantee Zide’s survival. They have identified thirty L'Alliance Dorée agents so far and are near to discovering who is in charge.Long-term goals
Helshan wants to control Ahznomahn. A sociopath, he has no regard for human life, and does not care who dies to achieve his goals. With this first goal completed, he would extend his organization to other nations until he becomes the most feared man in the world.Locations of greatest activity
