Type
Political, Faction / Party
Alliance
The Blue Sodality and the Dowagers share a common enemy in the form of the Red Cloaks and their other organizations. because of this, and the Dowagers policy on sharing information on the Red Cloaks freely, the two factions can be found in contact with each other commonly planning actions against the Red Cloaks.
Alliance
Because the Tagen Knights are viewed as an actual Order of Knights, the nobility of the Dowagers has deemed them a useful alliance to maintain. Because of this, the two factions are known to share information between each other, with the Tagen Knights being alright with the actions of the Dowagers so long as it remains within their respective realms. It is also because of this train of thought that the Dowagers come to not fear possible reprocussions from the Tagen Knights, as their focus is elsewhere.
Neutral
While both are secretive organizations who collect information, the Dowagers and Unknown Nobility actually don't come into contact, though if the Dowagers started to really abuse their power, the Unknown Nobility would appose them without a second thought.
Neutral
The Dowagers and Inferus hold a neutral standing between each other. Due to the nature of both factions, their activities have been known to overlap, and members of Inferus have at times been tempted to deal with high members of the Dowagers, though no negative confruntaions have occured thus far between the two factions.
At times, they have been known to trade information between each other, though from the standpoint of a tansaction, leaving no debts behind.
Non-aggression pact
The Gàrradh Collective tend to hold no hostilities, or even contact with members of teh Dowagers, as the Dowagers are more active amidst locations with civilization, and nobility. There have been incident where the Dowagers have encrouched upon Gàrradh land, which has left The Gàrradh Collective a bit peeved.
Non-aggression pact
Between the upper management of the Dowagers and the Artikel is a pact to agree that the Artikel will not enquire about the possession of magical items the Dowager faction may possess, and in turn the Dowagers will not perform activities amidst and around the Artikel.
The Artikel at times will request information from the Dowagers, and view them as a vital resource and trusted buisness partner, though the Dowagers only see the Artikels as an annoying pest impeding their work.
Opposition
The Dowagers are Directly opposed to the actions of the Red Cloaks and their subsequent organizations. Because of this, the Dowagers will activly attempt to impede the actions of the Red Cloaks, gathering intel on their actions and freely sharing it with other parties in opposition or war with the Red Cloaks.
Hostile
The Dowagers have deemed the Sin Concord to be a flight risk, and hold open hostilities towards the concord. This is in part due to their shared purpose, but where the Dowagers collect information for their organization, the Sin Concord desires only wealth and will perform tasks that put members of the Dowagers at risk.
