“The Lucky Bones was, to the public, a gambling hall and opium den.
In truth, the building was a front for a guild of thieves and abductors known as the Gray Spiders.
The full might of the Order of the Torrent came down on them, and when they were done, the Gray Spiders were no more.
But then Lictor Yehl, made the curious choice to seal the Lucky Bones. It was discovered that Yehl planned to return to the complex to loot it.
Yehl and the others were expelled, but no one ever followed up with the Lucky Bones.
Lictor Arcamo was ashamed of the entire episode and forbade any of the rest from investigating it, and in time, it all mercifully slipped from memory.
But those chambers still exist below the ruined gambling hall—chambers that were never mapped or officially reported. For all intents and purposes, they do not exist.
Sounds to me to be the perfect place for a rebellion to set up shop... provided someone first scouts the place out to ensure nothing unwanted has moved in!”
Proclamation the First: All slayers of city pests (hereby ascribed as
doves, mice, and ravens) who present said pests to the dottari shall be
rewarded with a bounty of one copper piece.
Proclamation the Second: All places of public business must display in
a position of prominence within the first room accessible from the

Proclamation the Third: All those who capture, alive and unharmed,
feral dogs of a weight exceeding 50 pounds are to be rewarded with a

Such noble guardian creatures should find homes worthy of their kind!

--Upkeep Phase--
Step 1—Supporter Attrition: Attempt a DC 10 Loyalty
check. On a successful check, the rebellion only loses
1d6 supporters. If the check is a natural 20, the rebellion
instead gains 1d6 supporters. On a failed check, the
rebellion loses a number of supporters equal to 2d4 + the
rebellion’s rank.
Step 2—Notoriety Maximum: If your Notoriety score
is 100, Thrune agents take action to round up and execute
suspected supporters on trumped-up charges. This reduces
both the rebellion’s supporters and Kintargo’s population
by an amount equal to 1d20 + the rebellion’s rank.
Step 3—Treasury Shortage: If the rebellion’s treasury
is below its minimum during Upkeep phase, the
rebellion loses a number of supporters equal to 2d4 + the
rebellion’s rank.
Step 4—Increase Rank: Apply any adjustments to the
rebellion’s rank due to increased supporters from the
previous week. This is the point at which the rebellion
“levels up.” It’s possible, particularly in the early stages of
the rebellion, to gain more than one rank if fortune has
granted the Silver Ravens an unusually large increase in
supporters since the previous Upkeep phase.
Step 5—Deposits and Withdrawals: Any rebellion
officer can deposit or withdraw any amount of gold from
or to the rebellion’s treasury.
