Diosthenes was the High Priest of the Brothers of Mercury, a Thieves' Guild operating in the Yrthian goblin city of Yibyorak. The High Priest position is in fact a mouthpiece for the Guild's true leader, the goblin wizard Shuuv’kopekk. When Diosthenes got greedy, Shuuv’kopekk made the human Sulpicia turn him in to the authorities for the 10 pound (10,000 GURPS bucks) reward and take his place. Diosthenes met an unpleasant end, but it took the authorities some time to realize this did not lead to the dissolution of the Brotherhood.
