I pretty much design a new background. The rs3 gold feature could be something like "Journalistic Connections: You can find someone who knows what you need to know." Obviously define it more tightly, but I think the concept could be solid.

The equipment is what I have the most trouble with I like the Dimir Operative three small knives, since it fits the Dimir signature rule of three style, but knives don fit here. Looking through the PHB for inspiration, I realised what I come up with is a slight variation on the Sage background. The Sage starting equipment seems appropriate if you replace the unanswered question with an unresolved investigation. Also add two more quills for that rule of three.
