NoN-GOLGARI CONTACTS
dlO Contact
An Azorius arrester I literally pulled out of the gutter
will do anything for me.
2 Someone joined the Gruul in a battle against the
Boros once, and the sergeant of that Boros squad
would love to prove that it was me.
3 I had a romance with a Dimir agent whom I still feed
secrets to.
4 Roll an additional Golgari contact; you can decide if
the contact is an ally or a rival.
5 I joined the Gruul in a battle against the Boros once,
and the chief of that small clan thanks me for turning
the tide.
6 An lzzet scientist resents that I sold a scrapped
invention I found in the sewer.
7 My undercity explorations led me into an Orzhov
vault, and a spirit thinks I stole something valuable.
8 I found a baby beast and sold it to a Rakdos wrangler
who remains grateful to me.
9 A Selesnya druid and I share an interest in the same
garden, and we have enjoyable arguments there.
10 I regularly pick up refuse from beneath a Simic lab-
oratory, and sometimes I talk to the researcher who
dumps it there.How Do I FIT IN?
As part of the Golgari Swarm, you are a specialized
instrument of the greater body. Your orders, when you
have such, come from the guild master by way of his
chancellors. w ho carry his messages throughout the
guild. The swarm relies on you to advance the greater
good by protecting some part, however small, of its
teeming existence. That responsibility doesn't mean
you're indispensable; your eventual death is part of
your purpose and function, too, and you·ll be replaced
even as your body provides nutrients to further the
swarm's growth.
A classic adventuring role for a member of the Golgari
involves crawling through dungeon-like environments-
the sewer s and ancient vaults of the undercity-in
search of treasures left behind by the dead. Sometimes
you might be sent to find a specific item believed lost
in a dangerous part of the undercity. At other times,
you could be asked to collect samples of a specific fun-
gus, retrieve a body floating in the muck of the sewers,
or bring back whatever booty you can to help fill th e
swarm's coffers.
You might gain enough renown to become a member
of the Ochran, assigned to a variety of tasks concerning
thievery, assassination, or the protection of important
figures in your guild. You might steal something be-
cause the guild needs it, or because its loss will bring
harm to another guild, hastening that group's decline.< llAI n R^2 OlJILDS 01· RA\ ~H \ 'i'l
