The Echo's Bane is a thieves guild that operates in the city of Goldhallow. The guild was founded over 100 years ago by a group of thieves in the capital to the east. The members of this guild deal in secrets more than treasure or bounty, collecting the echoes of information swarming the city and giving them their name.

The Echo's Bane is a well-organized and disciplined guild. Its members are sworn to secrecy and are expected to follow a strict code of conduct. The guild enrolls a network of informants and contacts throughout the city, allowing it to stay one step ahead of the law, and in some cases bribe or blackmail city officials to influence politics in the area.
The Echo's Bane is an unlawful and dangerous organization, but it is also a necessary one. The guild provides a valuable service to the city, especially those in Lower Goldhallow by keeping the streets safe from other criminals, when the law won't always keep a close eye on the slums. The guild also provides a way for people to make a living who would otherwise have no other options, which is extremely common for the residents of Lower Goldhallow.
The Echo's Bane is a complex organization with a long and storied history. It is a force to be reckoned with, and it is sure to play a major role in the future of the city.
