Noble
Envoy
Envoys are hired by nations, powerful nobles, great merchant houses, guilds, or cults
to represent their employer's interests in the Old World's various national and provincial
capitals. They are granted some sort of immunity from the government or the
court they are working in and the right to speak on behalf of their sovereign.
Some of them are chosen for their exquisite tastes and ability to spoil rivals and allies
alike with carefully chosen words and gifts, others may be selected for their sharp
minds, understanding of intelligence networks, or undeniable charisma. However,
all envoys must be masters of negotiation and other social interactions.
