Tras Veniri is also the home of one of the most powerful and notorious Thieves Guild in the Lands, ''Il Salcci Fano'' (Ven., “The Black Hand”). Operatives and guildhouses of Il Salcci Fano can be found from The Wild Coast to Athervon, in Oisland and as far away as Iruzhin. While rival guilds do exist (there is usually one strong contender in each country), the Black Hand is always a force to contend with where it operates. The Black Hand has a longstanding love-hate relationship with the Council of the Great Houses; for while the members would, in principal, like nothing more than to banish thieves from Veniri altogether, there is not one member of the Council that did not have need of the services of a member of ''Il Salcci Fano'' prior to their election to the Council. Thus, the Black Hand endures, keeping their activities out of the limelight, playing one council member off of the others, and offering up the occasional guild member when circumstances force them to do so (usually, they are offered up dead, to avoid any messy trial testimonies). | Tras Veniri is also the home of one of the most powerful and notorious Thieves Guild in the Lands, ''Il Salcci Fano'' (Ven., “The Black Hand”).
