Publisher's blurb: There's no telling what conversations are held behind closed doors. Backroom bargains and whispered agreements might go without notice by the general populace, or they might sway the fate of nations. Organizations who operate in the shadows, and who use secrecy and ritual to hide their membership and true goals, can be enemies as often as they are allies. Whether you need an organization for your party to work for, or one who is pulling the strings to manipulate them without revealing their hands, the following secret societies should do the job quite nicely.
