The most notable fact about this district is that the crown has no power here and don't care. The vacuum has been filled with the Thieves Guild. Nothing happens unless they allow it. In practice, thier hold is very loose but they actually do a little about street crime. They also don't allow freelance Thieves to operate here but since there is very little worth stealing so it doesn't matter.. Only a few businesses are operate here and all of them are here to avoid the crown In reading this thread keep in mind that the Tieves guild is everywhere.

The Mercenaries(guild)
For the most part this guild is an ordinary version of an adventure organization. Pay 10 gold and you are in. A fair number of non-adventures join for the parties. It's only obligation to the crown is that if the city is attacked they are responsible for a fair chunk of wall. What is strange is the way they operate the leadership.
At any time any member of the guild can force a vote of no confidence in the leader( called "Gold Boss") If the vote goes for the leader nothing happens. If the vote goes against the Goold Boss he has to give up leadership BUT HE GETS TO PICK THE NEW LEADER. While this may seem a bad policy it actually is not very worky. The vast majority of time the guild will settle into the leaders only going between 3-4 members.
Writers note The way the leadership works is based on something I came up with at a convention. By the end of the 4 hour session we could have vote done by the playes(12 of us) in seconds. I was a rat catcher and was ofetn leader, my BFF hid the fact he was a mage(gravedigger) and then he was leader 60% of the time("He can throw Fireballs")Wow was that fun.

Unusually, this high class entertainment is in the heart of the district.
The currant opera
"The Dove" A coming of age piece about a girl's transition to womanhood, a vehicle for Gertrude, a shining star amung the rest of the mediocre cast."The Dove" is sung in elvish.
