I apologize for the jumbled mess below... I am not entirely certain if this belongs in the World Building Section or this section.
My setting involves a recently throned blackguard, and his two associates: a goblin priest whose task it is to assemble an army strong enough to fight off a coming apocalypse(demon cults are trying to summon their "Mother" into the material plane), and a wizard who runs an academy that trains magic users in assassination and espionage.
The three of them are equals to each other, each working together to stave the beast that threatens to devour their world, in their own ways.
The blackguard's main task is to track down and silence cult activity within his empire, a task he employs secret police for... I'm wondering what classes might best serve this end, and what sort of hierarchy I could set up for it.
As for the wizard, I'm wondering what model I may use for his academy; these aren't DMG assassins, these are pure mages(most of them wizards) who are trained in assassination(and I've had an outside friend express interest in playing as a member of this academy, as an NPC the rest of my group will have to face later).
Apologies, again, for the jumbled mess above: I've been wondering about this for a while, but only just now decided to make a post about it.
