The Painted Men are a guild of assassins operating across the Sea of Gold. The Painted Men are a considered half-guild-half-cult, a religious order devoted to dealing death as a means of divine worship. Members of the Painted Men eschew their old identities and are trained to ignore pain and feal no fear. Due to the extreme secrecy of the guild, not even the assassins know their clients, with designated intermediaries negotiating contracts and assigning assassins. High-ranking assassins of the guild receive facial tattoos as a means of demonstrating rank and showing their deadly prowess. Masters of disguise and bladework, the Painted Men are amongst the most dangerous of the orders of assassins across the world, and their services are widely sought after by those wealthy enough to purchase them.
