History
Recent history
In Spring of 591 CY, a small earthquake struck Niole Dra. Damage was minimal, but the earthquake was accompanied by an increased number of monsters in the city's sewers. The sorcerer and sculptor Satampra Zeiros unveiled Terrors from the Dark, a popular series of artworks depicting bizarre otherworldly creatures.[1]
At the same time, minor unrest erupted in Niole Dra between noble factions for and against King Skotti's political agenda. Street brawls and dueling among minor nobles have occured,[2] with major Pugnace Dillip demanding an end to lawless behavior.
The Dark Star Guardians set up their base in Niole Dra, c.591 CY. Under the lead of Derapos, an aging priest of Celestian, they are a benevolent group of adventurers active in the Sheldomar Valley who "seek to right wrongs"[3]

The Thieves' Guilds
There are several competing Thieves' Guilds in Niole Dra. The biggest of them (usually just called "The Guild") is led by a booding man named Evon.
One of Evon's must trusted assistents, Ellinka, is in fact an agent of the Scarlet Brotherhood from Hesuel Ilshar, sent to Niole Dra to maintain friendly relations with the guild, and to support other Brotherhood agents passing through. Ellinka maintains a "safe house" for the Brotherhood, a small appartment in a middle-class portion of the city.[4]
