LORD OF THE JUNGLE
"Don't sell your soul to buy peanuts for the monkeys."
"What?"
Jungle based Guilds have traditionally relied on being captured as exotic animals to gain entry into rich households, or as bandits. Jungle Lords tend towards banditry, taking advantage of rumors of a local Cryptid known as the Cat Faced monkey to which all manner of evil and tomfoolery are ascribed.
BECOMING A LORD OF THE JUNGLE
Generally being a jungle living member of the Cat Burglars Guild is all that's needed.

PLAYING A LORD OF THE JUNGLE
You are the Lord of all you survey. In your own head at least. Them other guys who think the same better recognize your head kitty. "Cept for the silverback one, he's kinda tough...
Combat: One of you provides a distraction while the other sneak up behind and wail on people. It doesn't get much better than this unless they believe your in league with the Devils or some other nonsense.
Advancement: The requirements of survival ensure you develop among pretty strict lines or perish. Not many Jungle kitties differ.
Resources: Jungle Guilds usually have scant resources. Bandits aren't known for being wealthy, otherwise they wouldn't be bandits.
LORDS OF THE JUNGLE IN THE WORLD
"Cats and monkeys; monkeys and cats; all human life is there."
Maintaining the reputation of a spookity cryptid monster is a hard days work. It keeps making you figure out new , less reputable people to witness ever more bizarre scenarios you can come up with to prevent them from coming out into the jungle to look for you. And that backfires cause in some cases it draws the occasional whacko like a moth to a flame.
Daily Life: Much of your time is spent preparing for the day you get a chance to raid something or someone. And of course disseminating misinformation about the legendary Cat Faced Monkey. Why did you know seeing one can make you poop your own heart?
Notables:
Organizations: As usual, you belong to a Cat Burglar Guild. You aren't usually powerful or numerous enough to have subdivided into other organizations yet.
NPC Reaction
NPC's are hella scared of you. You make people poop their own hearts after all. And you're in league with Asmodeus. And by screaming Zoboomafoo while spinning in place you can turn people into lemur puppets who do your bidding. Or so everyone says.
LORDS OF THE JUNGLE IN THE GAME
Being an outlaw with powers resembling those of a legendary cryptid means you will be something of a weirdness magnet.
Adaptation: This is most definitely meant for silly campaigns.
Encounters: Lords of the Jungle are usually only encountered near the bases of Cat Burglar Guilds operating as jungle bandits.
Sample Encounter
EL 12: The PC's have been hired to protect a jungle caravan. From monkeys. You suspect the easy money is a lil too easy.
