The Court of the Rogue is a term used to refer to the community of thieves and small-time criminals, especially in Tortall, who are ruled by the Rogue, or King of Thieves.

Meeting place of the Court of the RogueEdit

Until 247 HE, the Court of the Rogue meets in a big black stone house. It was once a noble's house, later it belonged to merchants, was a courthouse and kennel. The last inhabitants before the Rogue took it for his court were dozens of poor families.^[1] The last Rogue who reigned in this place was Kayfer Deerborn. When Deerborn makes an official complaint on behalf of Crookshank's invasion of his court he gives it the title of craftsmen's meeting hall.^[2]

When Rosto the Piper became the Rogue in May of 246 HE he decided to make an inn out of the house just over the street of his own lodgings and relocate the Court of the Rogue there. The inn was finished in 247 HE and named after Rosto's mother, the Dancing Dove.^[3] By Alanna's time the Dancing Dove is still the headquarter of the Court of the Rogue.
