Feature: Spy Network

Suggested Characteristics

Agents of the Consortium are bound to the moon oath first and foremost. Breaking one of its tenets will not lead to excommunication; it will lead to execution. Regardless of this, most members of the Consortium have their own ambitions and goals they wish to achieve, although some are willing to go down dark paths to reach them.
