Winter's Web
From Changeling Venue
Contents |
Overview
Winter's Web is a tight group of information agents, all of the Winter Court, who seek to aid and protect Lost society through the uncovery or burial of information. The group works in a secretive cell structure. They are constantly trying to dig up any information at all that might be helpful to the Lost. They are also willing to bury any information that might be harmful to the Lost. Although the Web genuinely persues the best interest of Lost society, their services are never free. And woe to the one who uses the information they purchase in a manner that harms Lost society, or requests information be buried that the Lost truly need.
This group is not yet officially approved for play. This is posted to gather interest and help build the group and generate character and organization ties.
History
Pending further membership, but founded around 1998.
Backgrounds
The other courts have their purpose, but you know that Winter must be ever vigilant on behalf of all Lost society. You know how to dig up information, and bury it. What the True Fae know can hurt us, and what we don't know can hurt us also. This isn't about personal gain. It isn't about brokering for profit. It's about protection. But that's the only piece of information anyone gets for free.
Organization
The Web is broken up into a cell structure. Information is dangerous, and should a True Fae capture a member of the Web they could endanger all Lost Society. At the center of the Web sits the Recluse. The Recluse maintains contact with the National Spinners. The National Spinners maintain contact with the Regional Spinners. Regional breaks down into Cells of three to five cities. If a city has more than five members it breaks into seperate cells. Cells are provided with the information about who the members of their direct cell are and no others. Regular reports are forwarded up chain. These reports contain both information gathered and buried as well as requests for information to be buried or gathered. The Web generally charges in the form of Favor Pledges, with the stipulation that such favors will never be used for the personal gain of the Agent but only for the benefit of Lost society. Such favors have traditionally been a repayment of information.

You are winter court through and through. All seemings fit, but you specialize in stealth, secrecy, the gathering of secrets, or making secrets disappear.
