The Gangs of Raven's Keep

"In a little Barony far far in the Western Frontier"

Gangs are a problem in any kingdom or empire. Here are a few that have moved into or formed in The Little Barony.

Bonstas - A really vicious and tough gang that is empire wide.
They believe in blood and fear.
They are know for killing every person in an area to send a message.
They also know how to disappear when the law comes to take them out.

The Foreigners - They are criminals from foreign lands that have no loyalty or ties.
They commonly take on any gangs in their way.
They also have many spys and assassins and can and will do espionage for any other foreign power.

The Ladorians- A thievery's guild specialized in robbing nobles.
They are ran by a sect of evil clerics who worship a god called "The Ladder".

The Daggers - A lowlife guild of thieves and thugs.
They don't know when to back off and are not very careful.
They also take anyone who wants to join if they survive the beat in.

The Martins - A very large and organized group much like the Bonstas but with seemingly more class.
They are in league with devils though.

Here are great short films and such. Great inspiration for creating a setting. Details that you can use for your games. There are many small details that one might not think of. Damn I was going to write more but it's really tough right now.

Thief: The Dark Project

Thief...One of the greatest PC games ever made.



A medieval world of machines, cults, and many stories of the City.



Always trouble for Garrett our hero for lack of a better word.




Always a pawn in their games...



The graphics are mediocre in our modern standards and most modern machines won't run it without alot of tweaking or just play it on an old PC.



The sound is what really sets this PC game apart. You can most likely find it for a few bucks. ThiefII The Metal Age is the second in the series. It is just as good as the first game.

Thief: Deadly Shadows is barely the thief experience. Although better graphics it failed to give the same experience.

There is a place to get a FREE Thief type experience so long as you own a copy of Doom3. A group of saints created "The Dark Mod" for Doom3. It is a free engine for those who wish to create Thief type missions. They have succeeded in capturing the feel of Thief and it is free. There are many FREE fan missions and most are fantastic.
