League of Trades.

The League of Bronze Knives.
HQ: Prague, Czech Republic.  Castle Mountain, Canada.
Function: Assassins for hire.
Founding: Tahn-Nush the Bloody, 1074 BC, Babylon.
Symbol: A bronze scorpion.

Founded by the legendary assassin Tahn-Nush the Bloody in his home city of Babylon.  Tahn brought as many bandits and cutthroats in Babylonia and Assyria as he could under his control, forming a spy network that went from Sparta to Ninevah to Memphis.  All through out history, all the great assassins have been hired from the League of Bronze Knives.  After Tahn-Nush died, the best assassins fought each other for control.  A sassanid named Chorose won.  In 1042 AD, the League moved from the Middle East to Prague, and after the New World was discovered, the League made another base in Castle Mountain in Canada in 1780.  When Bartimeus the Vicious fell prey to ambitious underlings in 1929, Eshur-Appendel, an Assyrian mummy previously called to join the White Guard, took the position.
