Guilds

“That curiosity that drives you to seek the unknown is what we thrive on! Now, we just have to teach you to channel it, to seek out the cosmic doors and the ways to pick their locks.”

Prerequisite: Int 15.

The Brotherhood is interested in the curious individuals who want to know, really know, what is around the next bend, over the next hill, and through the unknown door, portal, gateway... Well, you get the idea.

The Brotherhood of Key and Door was formed by Lissandra the Gate-Seeker, who was moonlighting as a door snoop, and decided to go full time once the Lady shifted all the portals. She and some like-minded individuals got together and started portal seeking, then selling the information to interested parties. The guild has it's main chapterhouse located in the Clerk's Ward. Business is so good, that they bought a block of real-estate across from the Hall of Information, Demolished all of the buildings there, and started fresh. the resulting building has NO PORTALS, and is shielded from intrusion by teleportation magic, making it one of the more secure buildings in town. The guild, though based in Sigil, is looking to expand out on the planes, cataloguing the many portals that exist. And of course, charging a fair fee for that information.

The Guild is currently the largest organization of its kind in Sigil, and has made friends with the Sensate faction. Both groups have a love of finding new portals. However, the Minder's Guild, the business front of the Sod-Killers Faction, is still upset over the loss of income from portal finding, and has made apparent that they would love to watch the Finder slip up so they could take back what they consider theirs.
