[Note from Plot: Below is considered in-game information usable by all characters and players as common knowledge.]
Colors: Black and Blue
Current Guild Master in Dragon’s Hearth:
Requirements to Join: Citizen of Dragon’s Bane and a two silver registration fee
Requirements of Membership: Maintain good standing with the Order
Perhaps the easiest guild in all of Dragon’s Bane to join with one of the largest memberships. Queen Neverfire is considered the guild’s highest authority. The Adventurer’s Guild maintains listings for groups looking for new members, job opportunities in the local area, and information on various problems that need fixing.
Within the Adventurer’s Guild, members are ranked on a scale of one to twenty with a yearly one silver fee per level within the organization. These ranks determine the level of work a member may receive or the type of information they have access too. As a member climbs the ranks, the risk and reward rises for the missions available. Members who have not joined an Order are capped at rank five. Note that not all ranks are considered equal. Ranks from a more exclusive order are considered harder to obtain and more prestigious.
Order of the Blade
Symbol: Black sword on blue field
Requirements to Join: Pass a test based upon your rank. By rank five, members must be able to prove proficiency in their weapon, demonstrate specialize skills (such as parrying, disarming, riposting, fracturing weapons, etc.), the ability to strike blows hard enough to kill a normal man, and the ability to work well in a team. After rank five members advance based on their performance on missions.
Requirements of Membership: Continued good standing with the guild and payment of dues
Order of the Edged Knife
Symbol: Two daggers crossed on a black field with a blue border
Requirements to Join: The spies, saboteurs, assassins, scouts, and information specialists all get their start in the Order of the Edged Knife. By rank five members, members must be able to prove skill in many of the following areas: the ability to pick locks and set traps, infiltration and disguise, kill a target with a single strike, dodging out of the way of danger, create and use poisons, connections within multiple guilds and organizations, scouting and tracking, and find a black market broker.
Requirements of Membership: Continued good standing with the guild and payment of dues
Order of the Stave
Symbol: Black staff on blue field
Requirements to Join: The ability to read and cast magic. By rank five members are expected be able to use spell of mastery.
Requirements of Membership: Continued good standing with the guild and payment of dues. One of the smallest Orders in the Adventurer’s guilds as members tend to either be picked up by the Healer’s Guild, Elementalist’s Guild or one of the more specialized orders within the Guild.
Order of the Star
Symbol: Blue star on a black field
Requirements to join: Sponsorship and rank ten or higher
Requirements of Membership: Provides high powered support for situations that require it. Mainly consists of Knights, Sheriffs, Bounty Hunters, ex-Adventurers, etc who hunt down the worse criminals in Dragon’s Bane.
Order of the Shield
Symbol: Blue and black quartered shield
Requirements to join: Sponsorship and rank ten or higher
Requirements of Membership: A secretive order officially tasked with defending and securing the interests of Dragon’s Bane within it’s borders. Rumors abound about the order and it’s members as they are sanctioned to pose and infiltrate as members of other orders, guilds, and stations. Supposedly, involved in ongoing competition with the Order of the Spear. None of these rumors could be proven.
Order of the Spear
Symbol: Black spear on a blue field
Requirements to join: Sponsorship and rank ten or higher
Requirements of Membership: Where little information is available about the Order of the Shield, too much information is available about the Order of the Spear, often contradicting itself with proof to back itself up on both sides. Associated with conspiracies, assassinations, smuggling and vigilante justice the Order of the Spear is officially tasked with defending and securing the interests of Dragon’s Bane outside of it’s own borders.
