Preface
The Merchant Guild is a union of merchants, business owners, and crafters. Although its member base may largely be competing with one another, the guild protects them from regional politics and greedy political leaders who seek to take advantage of them. For the benefits of the guild, members provide valuable information to the guild’s administration who will then distribute it to the rest of the members. Information may range merchandise prices to profitable business ventures.
Although there is no apparent ranking within the merchant guild, accreditation and seniority divides the members. Only accomplished merchants are privy to the best information, while the rest are expected to curry favors, developing reputation, making donations, or get a good foot in with other members in order to obtain valuable information.
Currently, the guild’s headquarters is located in Fortuna, a city off the coast of Dunnstads. Because of their valuable business ventures, merchants routinely hire adventurers as bodyguards or to help recover lost or stolen merchandise.
