About

Velvet Shade is a faction that holds countless secrets and intelligence. A gathering of beauties forged in chaotic times, they endured relentless humiliation before realizing the unreliability of love and clan ties. Refusing to remain victims, they banded together for mutual benefit, wielding charm, cunning, and information as weapons. Amidst wine and song, they glide between nobles, officials, and merchants, collecting martial world intelligence while engaging in alliances and power plays.
Headquartered at Kaifeng's Revelry Hall, their operations span both Kaifeng and Jiangnan.
