Port Maddog, a lawless, fog-shrouded port city teeming with thieves, villains, scoundrels... and endless opportunities. You've come to the city seeking to join The Shadowdwellers, a guild of rogues and mercenaries known for their skill, honor and unique brand of justice. But it is a dark time for the guild. One of their own, a highly skilled 'second story man' known as Otto 'Grand Theft' Cutpurse, was captured while looting the royal coffers. The guild must find a way to break him out of the palace dungeon, and soon. Tomorrow at noon he's going to be executed in the public square. In The Company of Thieves is an inner-city campaign for rogues and mercenaries who enjoy working outside the law, and was inspired by fantasy works like the 'Thieves World' series, the 'Lankmahr' novels by Fritz Lieber, and the 'Riftwar' novels by Raymond Fiest.
