Lady Dread
Fear Only Two
A syndicate almost as old as Men of Midas. It is feared throughout Alataria for their cruel torture methods and their mercilessness. They deal in loan-sharking, mostly to new businesses trying to get up on their feet, and whenever a client can't return his debt, he gets to learn his lesson painfully, either by the members of the syndicate, or worse, by its lieutenants. Other than that, Lady Dread deals in human trafficking, specifically in young woman and even underage girls. They smuggle them through Herkin Port and then sell them to various clients, most notoriously to the Godly Succubi as prostitutes. It was first founded by Henrick Trife, a man who many claim to have brought the violence and viciousness of the crime life in Alataria to a whole new level. After his sudden passing from a heart attack at age 47, his daughter, Sunyula, took over the organization.
