There isn't much organized crime in Orvald. Dwarves are, by inclination, a lawful bunch. However, there are always exceptions, and the organized criminals in Orvald usually have some connection to Bora Drakeseye.
She's the eldest daughter in a dwarven family rumored to have dragonsblood flowing through their veins. That would explain the family's propensity for sorcery, as well as their peculiar crimson eyes. Bora has inherited both traits, she's also inherited control of the family's extralegal endeavors.
The City Watch knows Bora is the leader of a gang of smugglers and thieves, but they've never been able to prove it.  Bora is too cautious to get caught easily and she'll dump a load of stolen merchandise before getting caught and thrown into the city's dungeons.
She spends most of her time in a small tavern the family runs called The Weeping Widow. Bora is the dwarf woman with crimson eyes sitting in the back, surrounded by shady characters.
Every few years some overambitious newcomer tries to replace Bora. These wannabes don't last long. Bora's gang is fiercely loyal to her and she to them.
Recently, Bora was approached by the Veil. They're interested in forming a partnership with her, as Bora has access to places and people that the Veil does not.  Bora knows dealing with the Veil could get dicey, but she's confidant that if she keeps her head and doesn't get greedy, the partnership could be extremely profitable for everyone involved.
