Ague

A member of an underground criminal organization that specializes in robbing pearls from pearlcatchers and selling them on the black market that thrives in the seedier areas of Lanternlea Port. These pearls sell for a pretty penny to collectors and large dragons looking to deck themselves out in an unusual accessory. On occasion they are even sold to pearlcatchers who have lost their own pearls and are desperate for another one. Some of these pearlcatcher customers are victims of the group's thievery themselves, but dare not ask for help from authorities to get their pearls back out of fear of what the group might do to them.

The group doesn't typically kill their victims since doing so would only stir up more trouble than is necessary, but there are exceptions to this rule.
