The Adventurer’s Guild is the oldest and largest non-political force on the island, serving its place as the cross between civilian life and the dangers of the world. Founded 4 centuries ago among concerns and desires for a force that could quickly respond to threats with minimal cost after the kingdom failed to respond to a dungeon fast enough. Continuously growing, the guild has expanded to a common name among life. Serving the people where they need and taking care of the tasks too small or time consuming to the government or militaries, instead handing these tasks to members with the promise of retaining any treasure they find be it gold or magic items.
The guild currently resides mainly in a complex tavern in the capital city which serves as the meeting ground for the guild. They have functional ranks, and missions and offer work to anyone willing, with the promise of riches and fame.

The Kingdom of Hyrea lay just two weeks west of the land of King's Gate on a separate continent known as Eastrul. For just a few hundred years, a relative peace lay upon the nations under a golden age of technological and cultural developments. However, under the tales of old, the warmongering King began to prepare an invasion of the North. The Queen was soon forced to intern her husband in the name of peace and the civil war began.
After 12 long years, the war finally ended and reconstruction could commence. However, the Kingdom was never allowed to rest. Currently, Hyrea faces issues both international and domestic. A war rages in the south from the Huang Dynasty who took advantage of the Kingdom's weakened state, taking territory from the exhausted nation. Meanwhile, the growing Automation party engages in deadly skirmishes with mages in the streets of some cities. But regardless, the 5,000 merchants, soldiers, and even former King Loyalists set sail to King's Gate. Through mercenary contracts, trade, and quests, the Hyreans remain with loyal to just three things in this land. The spirit of the nation, the Great Dragon, and coin.
This faction caters towards a more medieval Eastern European and Russian aesthetic with some Victorian sprinkled in alongside fantasy aspects.
