Sett and dealing business in Navori
For a man who holds the power in the underbelly of Navori, there’s no way he isn’t more involved with enforcing, especially when they are within his grasp and/or around the Pit. A la typical mob boss fashion, you pay a fee for protection for an allotted amount of time, this ensures that any trouble caused by anyone in the vicinity of your home, bar, market stall, restaurant, what have you-- they fall within Sett’s territory, thus they’re fucking with his stuff. Punishment for that is dished out pretty quickly too, so it’s not too bad of a set up. And it’s not any sort of insanely high amount of gold, after all he’s trying to keep the area around him nice and orderly so no eyes pry too closely to what's going on below.
There are some areas that tend to elude his grasp, yet, are still within this realm he tends to “control” and it’s usually stray market stalls in the rural parts of Navori. Why does he do it? He’ll never tell you, at least directly. But anyone could tell from the way the owners greet him as if they’re one of his own, much to his chagrin. They’re usually folks his Ma knows or often shops from, or folks who have known him since he was a little kid. Any sort of trouble comes their way, be it a robbery, someone else trying to get them to pay enforcing fees for protection, threats, etc-- best know it’ll never happen again if it’s anything Sett’s got to say about it.
Outside of enforcement and the Pit, he has a hand in running an inn & bar as well. This is an area he tends to leave calling cards to see who the next big thing will be for his enterprise, makes scouting a little easier, especially if they’re starting shit within the walls. It’s also easy to see who is full of hot air and shit talk, he loves to deal with those types getting them to shut up in five seconds flat. While in comparison, the inn isn’t anywhere near as lavish as the Pit is, it’s done with purpose-- make it inviting. There’s a door behind the bar that leads to an area where he enjoys doing business which shares a little more aesthetic crossover with the Pit, usually reserved for those trying to strike a deal with him for something in return, usually never works out for them though.
