Mugarod is the leader of the [[Blackriver Bandits]], a group of run-of-the-mill thieves who prey on vulnerable travelers in the [[Aspengrove]] area and smuggle illicit goods in and out of the city-state. They are one of [[Guardians Brew]]'s largest clients and Mugarod personally referred them to [[Karelis Z'oa]], who subsequently reached out with her job offer for the heist at the [[Highwater - Mechanist Society]].
