i understand the world your trying to create, but i feel you are "try hard"ing. in a world full of dick bag cunts, where strength is the defacto basis of power and influence. everybody has enemies, and every enemy is looking for allies, or at least convenient stooges. the enemy of my enemy is my 'friend' especially if useful or easily manipulated. if raven and her guild wield power by their strength, the moment you ohko her, you have the power, and the follower types should be all about scurrying to the new strongest guy on the block. her enemies should also be about supporting you as you could be very useful to them. also, we met guards at the city gate, which means there is some kind of government, as corrupt as it might be, it is still above the adventurers guild. i mean the guild has a guild master, but some how he has no power over the guild members. if theft and murder or okay for the strong, then you being the strongest, should be just fine. the setting needs to have explanations that work. evil for evil's sake is stupid, and doesn't work because it can't last or maintain functionality. evil has to be self-serving, and the cruelty is for fun. but the fundamental truth is self-interest governs all.
