No, no, no, the Devils are the only good guys really! They're... terribly misunderstood, you know?

I'm rather fond of the Masters (well some of them). Yes I know it's strange. They're each selfish monsters but the problems with their deals seem more like an honest lack of understanding of humans as opposed to maliciousness and they at least keep London running somewhat. I know they aren't good creatures but I find them entertaining and when the alternatives (at least with regards to really powerful groups) are literal demons and the Liberation of the Night I'll side with the giant space crab that's in love with part of our solar system any day. Also with regards to the Docks do they include the Dawn Machine?

Good guys? Interesting concept. Everybody is singing songs and carrying signs. Mostly say, "Hooray for our side." https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DIoKr9VDg3A

The Masters can be quite different from each other, and have differing opinions on the space crab. Some of them are trying to leave London as soon as possible, bringing the next city crashing murderously down on all our heads. One of them has Surfacers murdered to lure people into the Neath. Another prefers to murder people directly, and probably eat them.
The Connected: Docks quality seems to represent the sailors and dock workers; the admiralty barely appears in Fallen London. [spoiler]The Navy did create the Dawn Machine, but for the most part its builder-worshippers have defected from London.[/spoiler]

Keep in mind no faction is made up entirely of "good" guys -- just like in our own reality. Arguably almost every faction has someone good in it. Personally, I really like the constable who tips his hat to you after telling you to stay consistent.

It's hard to say what's, or who's "good" in Fallen London because it's hard to say what outcomes really are "good". However, I think the Clay Men and the cats (esp. the kittens) are the most innocent and have had the most wrong done to them, followed closely by the Rattus Faber and the Urchins. So those tend to be the folk I "root" for, other than myself of course.

I believe the only true good is the irrigo. I know, you don't think they exist, that irrigo's a color, but that's because... you've forgotten.

Join the spies! We are deceitful, murderous, but classy. *Sips martini.* In reality, most of the spies seem more concerned with the Above world's game, then with inner politics of Fallen London. Though there is the foreign office. Which, if I remember it correctly, is just weird but not more evil then anyone else.

I don't know, I met another dashing spy who drank martinis, but things got weird when he showed me his scars and tried to throw me down a well. 007 was the number.

I know him. That guy is the _worst_. I assure you, the rest of us do not go around making things weird by showing others our scars. And we don't use wells - G-d knows what lives in them down here.
