This is a map I drew for a city campaign I’ve been working on that is a satirical take on the Free City of Greyhawk and setting for my Thieves’ Guild Built in the Subterranean Ruin of [Insert Generic Anthropomorphic Urban Rodent God of Your Choice]’s Temple.

It’s also a setting I’d like to one day (in the remote post-Southfarthing Confidential and Dwarf Lode future) publish. In the meantime, however, enjoy the map and a couple of factions you can find in the city listed below.

Wengemerlin Factions:

The Union of Hirelings, Henchmen, and Hangers-on (U.H.H.H.) was established to provide Wengemerlin’s less-than-heroic adventuring underclass legal, financial, and medical support. U.H.H.H. additionally offers staffing services for adventurers who seek to explore the dungeons of Castle Wengemerlin or the Netherhalls. The Union has developed a reputation for severe retaliation against those who have wronged its members. Due to the oversized influence, and wealth, of U.H.H.H., it has risen to become a not-so-minor player in the city’s political games.

The Thieves’ Guild of Wengemerlin wasn’t the first established in Wengemerlin, but by waging a determined campaign of murder, intimidation, bribery, and political subterfuge, it has established itself as the city’s the top-tier assemblage of cutthroats, burglars, pickpockets, forgers, professional liars, and street thugs, hands-down. Of course, while every organized circle of crooks in the city refers to itself as “the” thieves’ guild, this one has become a true institution within Wengemerlin. Those of more shadowy walks of life know the Thieves’ Guild is the one that matters.

Viking Mafia – The “made men” of the Viking mafia (or whatever it will be called) are noted by the rings they bear, which were bestowed upon them by King Ragnar himself. The Vikings are a major force in the Wengemerlin underworld, with connections and tenuous alliances with the Thieves’ Guild and Assassin’s Enclave. Mead hall franchises across the city are believed to serve as fronts for the Viking Mafia’s criminal endeavors.
