=== [[Skein_of_Worlds:Society_of_Doors|Society of Doors]] ===
The Society of Doors is probably the single biggest organization in the universe. Their primary goal seems to be to locate and exploit portals. A portal between two, otherwise unreachable cities can be worth a lot of money in the trade of rare goods. Therefore, the key to such a portal, or even just the knowledge that such a portal exists, is also worth a lot of money.

Those mysterious shops that sell goods no one else does and then vanish the next day tend to be run by members of the Society.

==== Attitude Towards Others ====
The Society cares little for race or religion. Anyone that can keep a secret could potentially be a member. Fortunately for the rest of the universe, their main goal seems to be profit, and probably nothing more sinister. This doesn't mean they are nice people though. Should someone come between them and their business, that person is likely to wake up on an unfamiliar, and decidedly hostile, world.

The Society does not go out of its way to recruit new members. Instead, it's likely to offer membership to people whose existing talents and resources would further the cause of the Society as a whole. Merchants that have hidden means of off-world travel, adventurers that explore the other sides of mysterious portals and any number of other characters that have something to offer are all potential new recruits. The normal routine is to offer the recruit a mission of sorts without revealing anything about the Society. If they complete the mission to the recruiter's satisfaction, they are usually offered full membership. Of course, things may get tricky if the recruit rejects the offer.
