Stillforge

Extremist anti-Tideborn organization. Not an official militant body, but organized, secretive, and growing. Stopped the party on the lift-ship looking for "papers" — actually hunting Tideborn.

Operate out of Vi-Lower, hidden beneath the city's feet and inside parts of Vi no one wants to look at closely. Areska has inside contacts who don't surface. Spread to Val'Meca and pushing toward Calen Vara.

Use copper skull masks. Recruit via an indoctrination pamphlet that identifies Tideborn by physical traits (horns, scales, cloven feet) — this pamphlet was traced to the Vi Sun Herald's printing operation. Use Blackmire Tannery as a covert holding facility for abducted Tideborn, protected by an official exemption from searches signed by Magistrate Elowen Draith.

Key evidence recovered: a seizure directive signed by Magistrate Elowen Draith, Stillforge manacles, and three green vials labeled "Batch 14C." Connected to Soot & Ash (shadow operative network) and Tomas Venn. Known pseudonym for a leader: Captain Vayne.

Currently the main antagonists of the campaign.
