The Exchange has been in Easthaven since before there was the United States of America, originally an offshoot from the Boston cohort as they grew and evolved. They put down roots as industry grew and urban development took over the wilderness, the world and growing community making it clear that they had to have a regular presence in Easthaven with its busy trade and penchant for the weird. Today, Easthaven's Exchange is led by Inquisitor Theo Crowhurst, dedicated to his job and jaded.
The agents range from your garden variety humans to half-bloods and undead, even the occasional shifter. Their sense of ingroup loyalty is second to none, no matter how pleasant or unpleasant you are. The Easthaven cohort is relatively small, moonlighting as a supposedly moderately successful PI firm without actually taking on any customers. Here Crowhurst leads a variety of experts and newbies, young and old.
If you're interested in making an Exchange agent, go ahead and list it as their career! If you want to be an old hand or a new hire, anything goes, but it's recommended to check out the other Exchange agents. What your character does for the Exchange can be self-defined, whether they go deep into practising magic, lean more towards CSI style work, or good old-fashioned detective work.
The coffee at the office is little better than sludge, but it keeps you up all night.
Available ranks:
- Senior Agent: You've been around the block and seen more than a few things. A veteran of the Exchange.
- Agent: Neither new nor old, you've experienced enough that no one calls you rookie anymore.
- Junior Agent: You're fresh on the job, possibly bright and bushy-tailed. Everyone will call you 'rookie' whether you like it or not.
