The Usurers Guild is one of the Guilds of Wraith: The Oblivion. Usurers specialize in the Arcanos of Usury. Once among the most respected Guilds, the Usurers were considered among the power players of Stygia, up there with the Artificers and Masquers. Their ability to control the energies and physical matter of death was considered immensely important, and many worked to stay on their good side. The Usurers are named for usurers. A usurer is someone who lends money with an extremely high interest rate. * WTO: Wraith: The Oblivion Second Edition, p. 160
