Consumable items. Once per week, a character can select
one consumable item associated with its current rank or lower and can only have one provided consumable in its possession at a time. Consumables provided by a faction can not be sold or traded, but can be used on other players. The item is lost at the end of the upcoming week.
Permanent items. A character has access to the current rank’s items, and of all lower rank items. These items can not be sold, traded, or gifted but might be replaced if destroyed or lost.
Rank 1 — Orbb (Private)
Required Renonw: 1
This is the rank a character receives when first joining a faction. It is available at character creation or any time the character wishes to join. Perks include:
Consumable item. Once per week, an agent can receive a Potion of Healing or another common magical item or non-magical item worth less than or equal to 50 GP when requested or retrieved from a faction loot satchel.
Permanent item. Agents are given a Feather of Bregan D’aerthe and a Faction Loot Satchel, which takes the form of a small, unmarked black pouch.
Downtime activity. The agent can choose to complete a faction job.
Rank 2 — Kyorlinorbb (Corporal)
Required Renown: 5
At this rank, characters have shown that they’re aligned with the faction’s goals and are able to take on more responsibility. Perks include:
Consumable item. Once per week, a Potion of Greater Healing or 10 pieces of Silvered Ammunition when requested or retrieved from a faction loot satche.
Permanent item. Agents are given their choice of either a Ring of Mind Shielding or a Ring of Protection. The items disintegrate upon leaving the faction.
Downtime activity. Once, an agent may request training in acrobatics, athletics, deception, persuation, stealth, or sleight of hand, training with pistols, hand crossbows, a poisoner's kit, or with thieves' tools, or training in one language such as Undercommon or Thieves' Cant. Receiving training in a language or weapon typically takes at least ten workweeks, but this time is reduced by a number of workweeks equal to twice the character's Intelligence modifier (an Intelligence penalty doesn't increase the time needed), with a minimum of two workweeks.
Rank 3 — Khal-abbil (Sergeant)
Required Renown: 15
Characters are reliable faction members, entrusted with many secrets and deserving of additional support during adventures. Perks include:
Consumable item. Once per week, 2 vials of poison with a combined value of 500 gp or less, or a Potion of Superior Healing when requested or retrieved from a faction loot satchel.
Permanent item. An agent can receive a +1 weapon or a drow gunslinger’s pistol; a +1 shield (if proficient); and either a +1 rod of the pact keeper or a +1 wand of the war mage (if applicable). The items disintegrate upon leaving the faction.
Hit job. Occasionally, Bregan D'aerthe members may buy off or quietly dispose of individuals who threaten the agent (usually without asking).
Supernatural gift. The faction can call upon a deity to empower the Feather of Bregan D'aerthe with a Charm of Invisibility.
Rank 4 — Mallasargtlin (Lieutenant)
Required Renown: 30
Characters are trusted voices within the faction’s leadership. They are looked upon as champions of the faction’s beliefs, and as mentors by those of lower rank. Perks include:
Consumable item. Once per week, a Potion of Supreme Healing or a spell scroll valued at 2,500 gp or less (typically up to a 5th level spell) when requested or retrieved from a faction loot satchel.
Downtime activity. Once, an agent may request the faction acquire a specific known magical weapon of common or uncommon rarity, for which the character will need to trade one of its existing magic items of equal or greater rarity. This search takes two weeks. The character does not need to be present during the search.
Sidekick. An agent gains one sidekick with the stats of a drow gunslinger that can adventure, go on assignments, or perform other tasks such as maintain a house or small inn.
Rank 5 — Ilareth (Captain)
Required Renown: 50
Characters are ensconced within the leadership of the faction and have a great degree of influence, guiding faction decisions. Perks include:
Commander. The agent may request a force of up to 50 drow elite warriors, drow gunslingers, priests, and mages for an operation that furthers the faction’s cause.
Supernatural gift. The faction can call upon a deity to bestow a Blessing of Undetectability upon the agent.
