Eight Fingers
Eight Fingers in Overlord is the criminal syndicate of the Re-Estize Kingdom, eight divisions from slave trafficking to banking whose money buys nobles and steers the nation from the shadows.
Crime in the Re-Estize Kingdom of Overlord answers to a single syndicate: Eight Fingers, an underground organization with a hand in every illegal enterprise of consequence in the nation. Its money buys nobles outright, its reach extends into the Baharuth Empire, and its influence presses on both of the court's rival factions, giving it a shadow grip on the Kingdom's affairs.
The organization takes its name from its structure, eight divisions covering slave trafficking, assassination, smuggling, larceny, the drug trade, security, banking, and gambling. Each division head runs his own empire, and the executives cooperate only as far as self-interest carries them, using one another as ladders. By the account of the Warrior Captain Gazef Stronoff, any open attempt to crush them runs into the purchased nobility standing quietly in the way.
