Black Fist Double Agent

You are an informant for the Tears of Virulence who now lord over Phlan, but are also a double agent for the original town guard of Phlan, the Black Fist. For the Tears you’ve been tasked with ferreting out the secrets of Phlan's criminal underworld, insurgency, and the common peoples of Phlan. In exchange for reporting on the activities of dissenters, criminals, and other rebel elements, the Tears of Virulence leave you alone to conduct your affairs in peace.
In reality you work for the deposed Black Fists, sharing misinformation with the Tears of Virulence that often helps the Black Fists and other Phlan insurgents.
Since the evacuation of Phlan, you are even busier today than you ever were previously, as the number of dissenters among the refugees grows daily, while you are afforded many opportunities to spy on the peoples of Mulmaster and Elventree, to the pleasure of your contact(s) within the Tears of Virulence.

Features

Double Agent

You have a reliable and trusty contact within the Tears of Virulence garrison in Phlan to whom you pass information and secrets. In exchange, you can get away with minor criminal offenses within the town of Phlan. In addition, your Black Fist contacts can help you secure an audience with the Lord Regent, the Lord Sage, members of the Black Fist, or deposed nobles and authority figures who are sympathetic to the Phlan refugees and insurgents.
Note: This feature is a variant of the Noble feature.
