Fairwater Undercity

The Fairwater Undercity is a difficult to access underbelly to the city of Fairwater above. Truly, this area is its own separate city boasting a population of almost one million people. It has its own rules, regulations, and governing body and is largely comprised of buildings that have sunk into the marsh that Fairwater rests upon. The buildings have stopped sinking and what is left is a sprawling network of debauchery, treachery, thievery, darkness, despair, and the tiniest ray of hope. Despite all of this, most citizens tend to live a “normal”, albeit poor, life.

Government
The Undercity's government is a loosely tied confederation of the heads of the five major guilds that rule different sections of the city. They do not "govern" in a traditional sense, but instead have come to loose agreements on boundaries, rules, and come together to destroy mutual threats.

The majority of "citizens" do not fit into any of the guilds. They are either just trying to get by, running their own little gangs, or trying to escape.

The Guilds
There are five guilds that exist in the Fairwater Undercity.
 * Domesticated Goods: this guild traffics entirely in flesh and is the only guild that supports slavery in the Outer Lands. It's membership is made up of almost any race that can be commonly seen in the world.
 * Her Majesty's Missing Eye: this Thieves Guild is named after the the giant blue gem stolen from a strange statue jutting out of the ceiling. Purportedly this treasure was retrieved by the original founder of the guild.  The members of the Missing Eye are split between humans and halflings.  The current leader is a halfling.
 * The Ticket: this selective group runs the marketplace of the Undercity, the market is entirely unregulated. No restrictions may be placed upon it and anything goes. The Ticket is a small group made up of humans, one dwarf with an eye-patch, and a single elf.
 * Earthen Grip: Effectively the mafia of the Undercity. It is entirely run and populated by dwarves.
 * Assassin's Guild: Very little information is known about this guild outside of it existing.
