The best traps are fleeting distractions that skilled characters can overcome in a short amount of time or deadly puzzles that require quick thinking and teamwork to overcome. Traps that are…

Thieves’ guilds, crime rings, and outwardly lawless factions are common in Faerûn. While some are so local in scale, short lived, or disorganized that they’re little more than common gangs, others—such as the Shadow Thieves of Amn or the Fire Knives of Westgate—enforce their edicts on monarchs and lords through intimidation, terror, and outright murder.

That patron’s aims are evil—the corruption or destruction of all things, ultimately including you—and your path is defined by…

There are always a few drifters and bad apples, but the City Watch will intervene if there’s violence and will usually attempt to apprehend known criminals…
