Lore

The name "Smuggler" is routinely mentioned in the Azurite Mine node Smuggler's Stash, which spawns up to 6 rogue exiles as node bosses.

The smugglers became a full faction of its own in the Heist league, which has its own monster types and tilesets: Smuggler's Den and Underbelly. In map players can also found Smuggler's Cache, which drops Contract and Blueprint. The dropped Contracts and Blueprints are not limited to Smuggler's Den and Underbelly tilesets, however.

In Siege of the Atlas, the dev overhauled the Atlas system in which Commander Kirac called this faction as "criminal". He also states that this faction may have ability to access its own map device in order to leave Smuggler's Den in the map (lorewise it is Atlas of Worlds)

Underbelly tileset does not have its own unique contract (heist) yet.

Note that the actual name of this faction is not mentioned in-game (except routinely mentioned in the tileset name Smuggler's Den. Commander Kirac also called the faction as "criminal" (non-proper noun).
