While the preferable way to create such a faction is to go about it IG I have found it quite difficult to do so. Like ships, passing in the dark, good thieves die alone. If anybody shares an interest in creating a thieves guild that includes the following:
1.) Death for betrayal / overtly crossing
2.) Making lots of money off people that carry over 5k gold
3.) Being subtle enough to not just get hunted down and killed.
4.) Dealing in all the shady services that people want, but can't get reliably - assassination, mugging, intimidation, vote rigging, subterfuge and lies.
5.) Shadily pulling the strings of power in Sanctuary to favor the corrupt and the connected.
So - if you're keen shoot me a PM or leave word here. I'm keen to get some concepts rolling that are open to making lots of coin and putting the fear of the underbelly back into Sanctuary.
Regards,
THE MAN
Although I might not be joining this concept anytime soon, I support this.
Just wanted to post here to say that there have been efforts IG towards creating something like this. If you're playing a sneaky, skulking PC and want to try and find a way to make some gold out of it (and would appreciate having a network of like-minded individuals working towards the same), feel free to contact me by PM, forum letter or in-game.
Brush up on your cant.
This would be really cool to see. I support this!
I approve of this group concept.

Yeh can also message me, etc..
This is a good way to get your concept metagamed.
Pretty much -anything- not sushed up behind pm's/diff accounts can be meta'd my good sir... just the way it is, you can only hope that some have the maturity -not- to meta-game.
Really cool! I'd like to see where this can go.
Also, for anyone that didn't get a proper chance yet to be in a faction/group with Blue, I really recommend it!
I will definitely keep this in mind when it comes time to roll a new character.
This is ongoing and interesting.
This has my support. The fact that ICly I have never heard of it, but it is a thing and ongoing, means it is working. Kudos!
Interested, sent a pm "The Man"
Certainly interested, throw me a pm?
