The DeCaro Order of Westfall, known in whispers as D.O.W. or simply “The Order,” is a shadow-forged syndicate that has shaped the underbelly of Westfall for nearly a century. Originating in the forgotten piers of the old waterfront, the Order was born from a small circle of families who survived the collapse of Westfall’s trading empire. Over time, those families hardened, unified, and evolved into a silent machine of control, intimidation, and influence.

Unlike the chaotic street outfits scattered across the region, the D.O.W. thrives on discipline, ritual, and absolute organization. Every move is calculated, every message precise, every operation stripped of unnecessary noise. The Order does not flaunt its strength—instead, it cultivates a reputation built on quiet, unshakable certainty. Their presence is felt long before it’s seen, and often long after they have vanished back into the dark.

The D.O.W. controls a vast network of covert operations throughout Westfall: underground trade channels, security corridors, informant webs, and a sophisticated black-market infrastructure. Their influence runs deep into both the criminal and political worlds, maintained through strategic alliances, debts, and an unmatched ability to uncover secrets others believe buried.

Members of the Order are shaped by a strict code that emphasizes silence, loyalty, discipline, and invisibility. To join is to abandon the world of noise and chaos—to step into the cold, methodical rhythm of the shadows. Every initiate learns early that in the D.O.W., power is not shown; it is understood. Betrayal is unheard of, not because it is forbidden, but because the culture of the Order makes disloyalty unthinkable.

Though many have tried to challenge the D.O.W., few have ever understood its true structure, and none have succeeded in unraveling its presence. It is less a group than a living, breathing institution—a ghost in the city’s foundation. To Westfall’s underworld, the Order is not merely a syndicate; it is a force, patient and inevitable, always watching, always waiting, always hidden.
