One of the factions of the elves.
The Bound Bargainers largely inhabit the secret flipside of the forest, the paths that lead through the Fey-Realm. Their concerns are pleasing faeries with gifts, and often they have and hold contracts to deliver certain items in exchange for services to their family. Even the King himself has contracts with the fey that must be upheld (such as the delivery of a quantity of human infants per season), though it often falls to the Loyal to complete these contracts.
The Bargainers work through the Drow of Olmsted Keep (31.04) to procure trade with the outside world, but also procure material via hunts and trades within the Forest and elsewhere. The paths through the Fey-Realm allow them to travel far and wide - though of course there is a price to pay to each resident fairy for using these roads.
A sizable number of Bargainers are paying off debts incurred whilst raiding, and might well continue to pay off these debts with yet more raiding and theft. Those that are caught doing so by the Loyal tend to incur yet more debt and other punishments.
