Dakker

The Dakker family was an old, wealthy and influential clan of Archendale, which was still active during the 14 century DR.

Activities
The clan operated a trading coster, the Darkwater Brand, which dealt in ore, fresh products and Moonsea metalwork. Some of their side-businesses also included bodyguard services, as well as escorting precious cargo (such as captured creatures) and wealthy travelers.

While the merchandise sold in their shop were pricey, they were usually of good quality.

However this was all a facade for much sinister endeavors: the family actually sold poison and nefarious potions, and dealt in kidnapping, smuggling and slavery.

Tactics
The family employed lot of well-equipped mercenaries to watch over their unlawful activities. They explained the presence of those combatants, as well as their ownership of wagons fitted with cages and small siege weapons, by their side-businesses.

Base of Operations
The Darkwater Brand was active in Archenbridge, Hillsfar and Ordulin.

Relationships
The family had a bad reputation outside Archendale, and various rumors hinted at their criminal activities. In the Dale, they were careful not to break any laws, and were respected with a healthy dose of caution.

Rumors
According to some Arkhenfolk, an invisible creature watched over the Archenbridge shop and hunted down would-be thieves.
