Mongos Bodyguards: Mongos Bodyguards is a small shop attached to the Adventurers Guild.on Regent Blvd. It is a small slip of a shop where Mongo and various surly looking warriors play cards, dice, and drink and eat. Some may mistake it for a bar, but it is not and if you are not hiring, you are out on your ear.

It is run by Mongo (Hacdeshani barbarian, Bright Desert - 8th lvl) who is retired. He is 70 yrs old but still very strong (17). He has given up herding for an easy "wetlander" lifestyle. He has on retainer over 15 warriors and barbarians as bodyguards/adventurers. In addition, for juicy jobs that require it, he has connections with the Marshals (rangers) for jobs they may like (Mongo just offers..no legal agreement). Mongos contracts are all legally registered in the Hall of Adventures in the adventurer’s district. The contracts all are fully negotiable but usually involve a set daily fee (plus a cut of the treasure if adventuring). The fees range but are never less than 100gp per level per day and may go 1000gp per level per day if risky.

Some retainers usually at the shop if not working are Blaylock Pentangle (Fighter 12th - Bow specialist), Dorak Oakenshield ( Warrior -6th -Dwarf) and Ciris Cane (Swordmaster fem human 7th lvl).

Celadon Spy Network –(Lives in 104)

The upper floors is the headquarters for the Network. Usually one of the leaders and 3-5 lower level thieves are about. Geoff (Thief 8^th level) CN Human and Janith ( Thief 8^th level) CN Human run the show. Lorocus saved both these brothers from the dungeon of the Vampire, Baron of Blutspurr 

These two resourceful thieves are spies at the Celadon Forest that even the Great Druid is unaware. They also run a spy network of low level thieves in Guido's Chruch, Evermore, Greyhawk and Babylon so that Lorocus may be briefed on happenings in one location. Approx 40 thieves in all…they do provide data to the Druids and druid-positive forces when appropriate but don’t care much how they get the information (greatest good). They are well funded for now but things may get tight with the Grand Druid gone.
