Honestly, I've been having more luck recently, with this Bloodsworn thing rather than the "Syndicate merc" angle. Despite my attempts to illustrate someone serving Monetarists aren't necessarily bad, the fact remains that they are portrayed as villainous in the main story, and thus extra effort would have been needed to get myself in on RP plots...extra effort needing time I don't have.
At least last night, standing around the Quicksand, Kale walked in with his black/gold elite armour and two other characters spotted it, and conversations was struck from there; very similar to how a Sultansworn would walk into the Quicksand in the Gallant gear and RP would be spurred. The "exposure" is made, and thus those characters might think to Kale should they ever need Flame help.
Really, people knock the Quicksand, but it's a great focal point. Even in-universe, Kale spins it as a nexus of connecting various factions within the city...just so long as he isn't mistook for a lawman...
