Description
A small, round man with darting, suspicious eyes and elaborately pomaded moustaches, Zafforo lends money to those desperate enough to seek him out. He charges interest at 6 for 5. That is, for every 500 GP borrowed, 600 GP must be repaid, usually at the rate of at least 50 GP a week. Long term loans are unheard of. Zafforo requires collateral of 60% of the loan’s value for first timers without proper references (like Thieves Guild membership), and will accept almost anything, from valuables to first-born sons, as collateral. Few cheat on Zafforo, even though the half-dozen bully-boys he employs as collectors are but average fighters at best. The lender is known to have the protection of the Guild in exchange for which it is said that his full resources are at the Guild’s disposal (at the regular rates, of course) in times of need.
Zafforo lives in a three story house on Shadowfall Street, and does business in his front room. He has three employees, a cook/maid, a bookkeeper, and a bodyguard and a mistress, a young girl of 16 whose father couldn’t make his payments.
