Guilds & Factions

...

Alphanauts

The Alphanauts, though proud of their impeccable safety record and luxurious services, are ever-aware of the Wraithnauts’ growing influence. They often emphasize their reliability and quality over the cheaper, riskier alternatives, ensuring they remain the top choice for those who value safety and luxury.

...

Conservatory

To the world outside, The Conservatory is an enigma, wrapped in awe and fear. Their unwavering goal of re-establishing draconic rule makes them a threat to the existing order, especially to the kingdoms of the Gods. While many see them as fanatics clinging to bygone grandeur, there are those who, secretly, admire their determination and the promise of a world under the majestic wing of dragons.

...

Docker’s Union

The Docker’s Union emerged as a beacon of hope for the weary port workers faced with mounting piracy along the Augural Strand’s coast. Formed out of frustration with Caelus Castra’s indifference and the urgent need for self-defense, the union brought together the hardworking denizens of the docks in an unwavering pact of solidarity.

...

Order of Araneae

To most of the Augural Strand, the Order of Araneae remains a whispered legend, a shadowy organization that some doubt even exists. Those who know the truth often find themselves caught in the web of the Order, bound by secrets, obligations, or fear.

...

Mercenary’s Guild

The Mercenary’s Guild is a double-edged sword in the eyes of the Augural Strand. To some, they are a necessary evil, a tool to be wielded in times of strife. To others, they are a symbol of unbridled greed, warriors who have forsaken honor for gold. Nonetheless, the Guild’s reputation for getting the job done has made them invaluable to many who seek their services.

...

Privateers

The Privateers operate in the grey — officially sanctioned by the capital, yet never truly shedding their roguish tendencies. While they’re valued as a formidable force against external threats, their loyalty remains perpetually in question. Their mercurial nature leads to frequent skirmishes with other factions, particularly with the Docker’s Union.

...

Wayfarers

The Wayfarers’ reputation as seekers of truth and discovery has led to mixed feelings across the Augural Strand. While academic institutions hold them in high esteem, their reception among local settlements varies—some view them as harbingers of enlightenment, while others, especially remote and superstitious locales, regard them with suspicion.

...

Woodwatchers

The Woodwatchers, over time, have etched their reputation as the unwavering defenders of Bulwark’s boundaries. While their dedication is applauded by many, their stringent anti-magic stance, influenced by House Fudgel’s beliefs, often places them at odds with those more sympathetic to Quickthorne’s mysticism.

...

Wraithnauts

The Wraithnauts, while seen as mavericks and often criticized for their reckless ways, are also romanticized as the true free spirits of the skies. Many a tale is whispered in the taverns of young adventurers saved by a Wraithnaut or of treasures found in the most perilous of places.
