The Brotherhood of Cymbri
Creature, Cults, Fraternal Orders, and Secret Societies
A supposedly political secret society guarding the hidden pirate city of Cymbri, which in truth runs smuggling, fencing and perhaps murder across Mediterranea and northern Gondwana. Only Cymbrian citizens may join; Shebans and the Brotherhood loathe each other.
From the book
The Brotherhood of Cymbri is a secret society whose home is the city state of Cymbri. On paper it is a political body whose main purpose is to protect the hidden pirate city. In truth it also runs an organized criminal network dealing in smuggling and the fencing of stolen goods, and, some claim, in murder too.
Only those granted Cymbrian citizenship may join, and its members operate in secret across Mediterranea and northern Gondwana. Certain Atlantean sources link the Brotherhood to the corrupt government of Tharshesh and perhaps to Turan as well. The Shebans hate the Brotherhood above all, and the feeling is mutual; The Lexicon's entry on Cymbri has more.
