The Verdict

The Verdict is a group of five adventurers based in northwest Marquet, active in 843 PD. They were hired by Isha Sabanis to perform a heist on Evon Hytroga's Twilight Mirror Museum in Heartmoor Hamlet as part of a three-way bet. As her entry, Jiana Hexum hired Bells Hells to compete in the heist.

When nearing Heartmoor Hamlet on their journey along the Honored Trails of the Oderan Wilds from Jrusar, Bells Hells encountered a group of five travelers going the same way. Hutchin acted as their spokesperson, explaining that they were travelers who wandered the region, predominantly out of Evishi but traveling as far south as the Kanak Gulf in the Hellcatch Valley, taking work where they could and selling what they found as they went. When Orym proposed the two groups travel together for safety the rest of the way to the Hamlet, Hutchin accepted, specifying that they would travel in tandem rather than as a unified group. The two groups completed the journey to Heartmoor Hamlet uneventfully and separated at the town gates.

When making their preparations for the heist of the Twilight Mirror Museum, Bells Hells discovered that The Verdict had also been shopping that day, purchasing three tanglefoot bags, two smoke bombs, and a Potion of Gaseous Form. Although the party attempted to learn where The Verdict was staying, they were unsuccessful. At the appointed hour for the heist, they confirmed that the group was indeed their competitors, and Hutchin said the party could call them The Verdict.
