Prior to Introduction
Sorry there, Character, but you're going to have to be more powerful, say around security level 30, if we're going to make money together
Initial Contact
'Allo there, Character! Name's Atherton Cromwell, Drudge Enforcer. I've heard a bit about you, and I want to propose a little deal.
You help the Drudges in various tasks around Night Ward, collecting souls, making sure we can collect souls, stopping those who don't want us to collect souls, etc., and we'll see that you're rewarded quite well. Interested?

Sometimes we need t' put our own in their place, Character. Case in point, a group of Drudges just stole a large number of wax from some dear friends of mine. I promised that I would look into the scenario and get it back for them.

Deal with the Midnight Masters
Briefing
One o' our boys found out that the Midnight Masters have some interesting books on tracking down souls, Character. So, I decided, if we had that, it would make it that much easier for us t' bring in more wax on a daily basis.
Are you up for a little search in a cave nearby? All you need t' do is pick up the book, rough up some of those undead blokes, and then collect your payment!

Deal with the Spirit Stalkers
Briefing
This is unbelievable! Character, this is unbelievable. Those Spirit Stalkers have made o'f with one o' our boys! It's a fight they want, it's a fight they'll get. From you, o' course, I'm not one for the whole fighting deal.
Take down those dogs, get our boy back, and steal anything that might look nice in the area. For yourself, o' course.

Deal with the Talons of Vengeance
Briefing
Th' Talons of Vengeance recovered the remains o' one of their elders recently. Our boys heard that they're trying to revive her. Now, I don't care much at all for that, but I figure having those remains would give us a bit o' leverage over the Talons.
Character, someone like you would be able to bust in there, bash th' Talons, and swipe those remains. We'll give you a hefty payment for this, o' course, and you'll be sure to instill fear into th' fearless Talons. ... I think.

Handle the Apparitions
Briefing
Th' Apparitions... ah, they're an interesting lot, I'll tell you that much. If only they were just a little more than just hateful balls of energy... if only they had souls! There is something we can do about that, however.
There's this theory o' mine, that if enough pain is caused to an apparition, the host might just feel it. At the very least, we'll be able to see a link to where this apparition was originally from.
So! I'm telling you all of this to request you take down a group of these folks, that way myself and my fellow gentlemen can find us some hearty souls for th' taking! We'll even cut you in on the payment we receive.

Handle the Black Knights
Briefing
Those clangers insist on getting involved in everyone's business. They make it difficult for us t' make an 'onest day's living. If you're not careful, Character, they'll be barking up your tree, too!
Tell you what. They just finished wiping out those Talon birdies. I'll tell you where they are, and you can wipe the whole lot o' them out! I'll even throw in some wax for you t' use, as you'll be doing us all a favor for this.

Handle the Midnight Masters
Briefing
Look alive, Character! We've got ourselves a problem. The Midnight Masters are gathering in a nearby office t' form some sort of spell that can bind the Drudges to specific areas! Now, I'd handle this myself, but, well, what with the' whole being bound to one place, it would be a bad idea. If you can stop them, we'll be grateful to you, and by grateful, I mean send a payment t' you for your services.

Handle the Spirit Stalkers
Briefing
Those dogs known as the Spirit Stalkers cause us no end of problems. Case in point, they made off with a batch o' perfectly fine humans, souls and all! Now, those humans are all dead now, and we've lost out on a prime payment.
We'll pay you very well, Character, if you could go take care o' this pack for us. They've absconded into one of the nearby offices. Shadow Hunter needs t' know that he can't stand in between a Drudge and his money, eh?

Handle the Talons of Vengeance
Briefing
Look alive, Character. I'm not terribly sure how you would look, given my whole eye situation, however.
Those birdies in the Talons just wiped out a group of our boys. Now, they were on a very big job that had a lot o' promise for wax. That's all gone now, which means we need t' make those birdies pay.
We'll give you a fine payment if you can take out the Talons that attacked our boys, show 'em that the Drudges don't take kindly t' our payment being interrupted.
