* [[Shifty, the Thief Chief]]
'''Shifty, the Thief Chief'''<br></center>
* [[Lefty, the Trainer]]
Shifty decides whether or not you may enter the guild by giving you tasks and judging your ability to complete them. Upon completion of the first three tasks, you are elegible for training by Lefty. Upon completion of the fourth task, you are permitted to purchase items from The Shadowy Store.

===First task===
* [[Nash Crosby's Still]]

* [[Duncan Drisorderly, the Disco Bandit]]
*Reward: Access to the Barrel full of Barrels, 2 [[giant moxie weed]]s, an [[enchanted barbell]], and a [[rockin' wagon]].
* [[Stradella, the Accordion Thief]]
*Message when completing it:
:Shifty quickly moves the cards around on the table, seemingly at random. When they come to rest, you hesitantly point to the third card from the right. Shifty turns the card over, revealing it to be the Queen of Pointy Things.


:"Nicely done, Initiate," says Shifty. "Welcome to the Department of Shadowy Arts and Crafts."

*In a [[Zombie Slayer]] run, the guild is closed:
:The door to the Department of Shadowy Arts and Crafts is locked tight, and the windows are boarded up. You aren't sure what you wanted in there, anyway. Are you even a Disco Bandit or Accordion Thief? Trying to remember gives you a headache.

===Second task===
*The second task is to play 11-Card Monte (not capable of completion with raw Moxie of 11 (you get the Ace of Post-Hole Diggers), but capable of completion with a buffed Moxie of 12)
*Message before doing it:<br>
:Your second task is a simple one -- we're going to play a straightforward game of [[eleven|11]]-Card Monte. If you can find the Queen, you have passed the test.
 
===Third task===
*The third task is to steal a beer from the bar behind the bar (capable of completion with a buffed moxie of 16, but not a buffed Moxie of 15, which got me beat about the head and neck by the bar)
*Message before doing it:<br>
:Only one task remains, Initiate: In the back room of this building, there is a bar. Behind the bar, there is a bar. You must sneak past the bar, and grab me a beer from the bar.
 
===Fourth task===
*The fourth task is to steal your own pants (completed with a base moxie of 16, buffed to 18)
*Message before doing it:<br>
:You have done well so far, my friend. You have almost earned access to the Shadowy Store in our back room. In order to do this, you must complete another challenge: Steal your own pants, without alerting yourself to your presence...
*Message when completing it:<br>
:You sneak up behind yourself and remove your pants before you realize what's going on. Nice work!
 
===Message after completion===
:You have already passed all of the challenges of your Guild.
