Gadwa Leila
Thieves Guild
Gadwa means 'gift, benefit,' and leila means 'night.' The night is a gift to the thief, which offers the blessing of darkness and shadows to aid their heists. In addition, to be a member of the Gadwa Leila is highly beneficial -- all members of the guild watch out for each other, and so long as each pulls their weight, the rewards will be bountiful. It is not entirely uncommon for them to simply be referred to as the Thieves Guild, but Gadwa Leila is their true name.

The Gadwa Leila are an exclusive, underground group of organized thieves that lurk within the Debbani. They exist in a chain of command for efficiency, and while most wealth and resources are generally shared in a communal pool to be sure each member is taken care of, those who go above and beyond are always rewarded a little extra for their efforts. Freeloaders are not tolerated; unless sick, injured, or elderly, all members are expected to pull their weight. They believe that if a thief is skilled enough, all they should need to rely on is the silver of their tongue, the blackness of the night, and the weight of their gold to be successful -- violence is for desperate amateurs and should be avoided, but not at risk of one's life. The Gadwa Leila are a family, and to cross one is to cross them all. They do not rob each other, and they do not steal from the poor. Interested in joining? The Gadwa Leila find you, not the other way around.
