Dark Brotherhood is one of the 4 major guilds in the Elder Scrolls Online. It is an infamous organization of highly trained assassins who carry out assassination contracts. They revere Sithis, the avatar of entropy and chaos, as well as the Night Mother, who is their spiritual leader. This mysterious organization is feared all over Tamriel. The Dark Brotherhood is also known to cooperate with the Thieves Guild for certain jobs. Any man or woman may join the Dark Brotherhood. Initiates must display the ability to kill mercilessly, without regret or sorrow. As a result, their ranks include vampires, werewolves, bandits, and mages. Jobs done for them often require stealth, to kill an enemy without being detected. If you would like to become a a hired assassin and carry out murder-for-hire contracts this guild is for you.
