The Gutterlight Syndicate

Location: Deep underhive
Symbol: A neon serpent wrapped around a filament bulb

The closest thing to a criminal cartel spanning both hives. They smuggle energy cells, neural dust, and relics between factions. Their hideouts glow with sickly neon, powered by stolen reactors.

Whispered Fact: The Syndicate’s leader — “Mother Wire” — is not human but an amalgam of cloned tissue and machine fiber that feeds on static electricity.
