The Thieves Guild is dedicated to the gathering and training of those who are stealthy and shadowy in nature. Although criminal by its very definition, for untold years, local authorities in places throughout Tamriel have tolerated the existence of the guild for its role as "crime regulator", as it does not tolerate competition or egregious conduct from its members (not to mention the personal financial benefits for authorities who play nice). It is usually considered to be a distinctly Imperial entity, though of course other organizations of the Empire do not officially condone their actions.

Like any trade guild, the Thieves Guild is an organization of professionals, except that in this case the professionals are burglars, robbers, pickpockets, smugglers, and other enterprising operators. They typically don't have public guild halls, but sometimes have safe-houses, and members tend to gather at a single location in large towns, such as at a cornerclub, inn, or tavern. Typically, members are bound not to rob each other, kill anyone while thieving, or rob the poor. The Thieves Guild usually has the resources to bribe officials, establish a black market of stolen goods, and maintain a network of informants.

For historical information, see the Lore article.

Look for guild operatives in Ald'ruhn, Balmora, Sadrith Mora, and Vivec.

Relations with other factions of Morrowind are generally poor, with neutral or slightly friendly relations with the Mages Guild and Imperial Cult. Their mortal enemy is the Camonna Tong.

Joining the Thieves GuildEdit

Joining the Thieves Guild is fairly simple: you need to talk to the right people. There are three people in Vvardenfell that can admit you to the Guild:

Chat with any of these characters about joining the Thieves Guild, and they will admit you as a Toad.

Bounty RemovalEdit

Once you've joined the guild, you can avail yourself of its bounty removal service. In each guild "house" (typically a shady cornerclub), there are savants who can remove your bounty at half price; talk to them about the "price on your head". These service providers are:

Ald'ruhn
Tongue-Toad
Balmora
Phane Rielle
Sadrith Mora
Rissinia
Vivec
Crazy-Legs Arantamo

BugsEdit

  • You can have your bounty removed for free if you have no gold. This can be exploited by dropping all your gold on the floor before talking to these guild members; they will clear your name and a message will (incorrectly) inform you that gold has been taken from you. You can then retrieve your gold.

Guild ConflictEdit

There is a conflict between the Fighters Guild and the Thieves Guild. This conflict appears during The Code Book quest given by Eydis Fire-Eye in Balmora. Being a member of the Thieves Guild makes the quest harder to complete. If you're not already in the Thieves Guild, you will no longer be able to join after the completion of this quest. See The Code Book quest page for further details.
