Interesting Things in Ashea: Adventure Guild
Several Years ago there was a...lets say a Guild since that is their preferred terminology founded. This Guild is essentially a bunch of thrill-seekers for hire. You can hire them to do anything you like, whether it’s delivering a letter to a friend in the next town or hiring them as assistants on a dangerous expedition into cursed ruins. Despite the...unorthodox nature of the group, they are quite popular for being friendly and flexible with payments.
Some of the members of the Guild include:
Shielair. The Guild’s Founder. Often known for spending time in public houses. drinking, laughing and singing. Mid twenties. Human. Light skin, brown hair, blue eyes. Came from “dull roots” and sought to take advantage of the improved road conditions and now owning her own horse (well...a donkey) she set out looking for adventure.
Iveem: A Mid-Level beastling (different “levels” of beastlings are based on whether they are more human or more beast. A “Very high level beastling” is mostly Animal, varying only in intelligence and often but not always, size while a “Low level Beastling” looks mostly human), nid to late twenties. His species is some type of feline and he has a stormy blue coat with dark tabby-like markings, he also has golden eyes. Among the Beastlings he is one of their “Blue” Males (and not for his colour). Iveem’s history is known. He and his younger brother were involved in some unfortunate drug related behaviour that cost the younger brother his life and resulted in the older needing rehabilitation. Now that he is recovered he spends a lot of time trying to help out his communities and those he visits on his journeys.
Khiara: a human with brown hair (though she has dyed her hair blonde in the past) brown eyes and light brown skin. Only recently returned from an extended mission in Theisia assisting with the exploring of ruins where criminal spellweavers had taken up residence. With her she brought a Statue Guardian that she had rescued. It is not the first time Khiara brought home someone from a mission. Though she is much more likely to be injured from trying to pet a wild animal.
Noramael: a dwarf from the Underground Cavern, age ~30-40. It is unknown what Niche he belonged to, but his Clan is the Iron Island Clan. He is hardworking and serious, spending a lot of time working odd jobs or similar. On the rare occasions he speaks to outsiders he mentions he has a wife and children back at Iron Island and he is supporting them. He is considered quite an oddity as most Dwarves who come to the surface are Nosy Scholars, with the occasional loud and excitable explorer.
Altiuccu: a rare white lizard beastling. He is a “Green Male” and married to Khiara. While he has often suffered from health issues he is still a masterful Spellweaver almost to the level of Mardas Ash himself. He’s usually found in the Spellweaver’s Tower in whatever city he is in with his nose in a book.
Tiasal: The Statue Guardian. Her head and ribcage are human, but her body is mostly a mix between a dragon and a lion with her arms being almost unusable as arms. Little is known about her backstory except she calls Khiara “Mistress” and flinches at raised voices and touch.
