Description
For all its notoriety, the Clasp is largely a business empire run by smaller pocket families of “spirelings” who oversee local illegal business and contracted work. Some Clasp are merely messengers, or thrive on intimidation. If conflict arises, and the problem can’t be quelled, then the heavy hitters/assassins are brought in to “clean up the mess.”
When the thieves and assassins of the Clasp need to “acquire” additional funds or “relieve” specific people of their possessions, their cutthroats are the first to be called. Clasp cutthroats can also represent any number of different rogues within the thieves’ guilds of Tal’Dorei .
