Adventurers Guild

The Adventurers Guild is a renowned organization dedicated to supporting and guiding those who seek to explore the farthest reaches of Aetheria. Established as a haven for heroes, explorers, and treasure seekers, the guild provides resources, training, and camaraderie to its members. Its emblem, a crossed sword and staff over a map, represents the unity of martial prowess, magical ability, and the spirit of discovery.
== Offices ==
You can find Adventurers Guild offices in major cities and key locations throughout Aetheria. These offices serve as the heart of guild activities, where members can register for missions, report their findings, and claim rewards. Occasionally, an Adventurers Guild office can be found in the middle of nowhere, serving as a vital waypoint for travelers. These remote outposts often function as inns, offering lodging, meals, and other essential services to weary adventurers. The guild prides itself on fostering a sense of community and mutual support, ensuring that every adventurer, from the novice to the seasoned veteran, has the backing they need to face the challenges of the unknown.

Members have access to well-stocked armories, libraries of ancient lore, and training facilities where they can hone their skills. The guild also provides safe havens in the form of guild halls located in major cities and strategic outposts, offering a place to rest, resupply, and exchange information.

=== Insurance ===
The Adventurers Guild offers a specialized insurance system designed to safeguard its members against the perils they face during their daring quests. This insurance system provides a safety net, ensuring that adventurers can be rescued and revived in the event of a fatal mishap. The insurance comes in two tiers: Basic Rescue and Premium Rescue.
==== Basic Rescue Tier ====
* Coverage: One rescue per year.
* Description: The Basic Rescue Tier offers a single life-saving rescue per year. If an adventurer meets a fatal end, the guild will deploy a specialized team to retrieve the adventurer's body and perform a revival ritual. This service includes transportation of the body, the revival process, and basic medical treatment to ensure the adventurer returns to health.
* Conditions: This service can only be used once within the insurance year. Additional rescues beyond this will require separate arrangements and costs.
==== Premium Rescue Tier ====
* Coverage: Two rescues per year.
* Description: The Premium Rescue Tier provides two life-saving rescues per year. In the event of death, the guild's elite rescue team will recover the adventurer's body and perform the revival ritual. This tier also includes enhanced medical treatment, ensuring the adventurer is fully restored and ready to continue their journey. Additionally, the Premium Tier offers a priority response, guaranteeing faster retrieval and revival times.
* Conditions: This service can be used twice within the insurance year. Additional rescues beyond this will require separate arrangements and costs.
==== How It Works ====
# Enrollment: Adventurers must enroll in the insurance system at their local Adventurers Guild office, choosing either the Basic or Premium tier.
# Rescue Activation: In the event of a fatality, the guild's magical network is alerted, and a rescue team is dispatched to the last known location of the adventurer.
# Body Retrieval and Revival: The rescue team retrieves the adventurer's body and performs a revival ritual, using advanced healing magic and medical techniques.
# Post-Revival Care: The adventurer receives necessary medical care to ensure full recovery. This includes treatment for any injuries sustained prior to death and general health restoration.
==== Additional Information ====
* Exclusions: The insurance does not cover situations where the body is irretrievable (e.g., completely destroyed) or if the adventurer's soul is beyond the reach of standard revival magic.
* Renewal: Insurance policies are renewed annually, and adventurers are encouraged to review their coverage before embarking on particularly dangerous quests.
This system ensures that adventurers can face their quests with confidence, knowing that the guild has their back even in the direst of circumstances.
=== Mercenaries recruitment ===
The Adventurers Guild offers a comprehensive mercenary recruitment service, providing access to skilled warriors, mages, and specialists for hire. This service allows guild members to bolster their ranks with experienced mercenaries for various missions and tasks. The service comes in two tiers: Standard Recruitment and Elite Recruitment.
==== Standard Recruitment Tier ====
* Coverage: Up to three mercenaries per mission.
* Standard Cost: 200 leaf coins per mission, but it can be negociable.
* Description: The Standard Recruitment Tier offers access to competent and reliable mercenaries who can assist with a wide range of tasks, from combat support to logistical assistance. These mercenaries are seasoned adventurers with proven skills and experience, capable of handling most challenges that arise during missions.
* Conditions: Mercenaries hired under this tier are available for single missions. Additional hires for subsequent missions will require separate arrangements and costs.
==== Elite Recruitment Tier ====
* Coverage: Up to five mercenaries per mission.

* Description: The Elite Recruitment Tier provides access to top-tier mercenaries who excel in their respective fields. These elite operatives include veteran warriors, masterful mages, and highly skilled specialists who bring exceptional expertise and strength to any mission. The elite tier ensures that guild members have the best possible support for particularly dangerous or critical assignments.
* Conditions: Mercenaries hired under this tier are available for single missions. Additional hires for subsequent missions will require separate arrangements and costs.
==== How It Works ====
# Enrollment: Guild members can access the mercenary recruitment service at their local Adventurers Guild office, choosing either the Standard or Elite tier.
# Request Submission: Members submit a request detailing the nature of the mission, the number of mercenaries needed, and any specific skills required.
# Mercenary Assignment: The guild reviews the request and assigns suitable mercenaries from their roster. Members can review the profiles and select their preferred candidates.
# Mission Briefing: Once selected, the mercenaries are briefed on the mission objectives and integrated into the member's team.
# Mission Execution: The hired mercenaries accompany the guild member on the mission, providing the necessary support and expertise.
# Post-Mission Review: After the mission, a review is conducted to assess the performance of the mercenaries, ensuring quality and reliability for future assignments.
==== Additional Information ====
* Exclusions: The service does not cover missions deemed too dangerous or outside the skill set of available mercenaries. In such cases, specialized teams may be recommended.
* Upgrades: Members can upgrade from Standard to Elite at any time by paying the difference in cost, provided suitable mercenaries are available.
* Renewal: The recruitment service is renewed per mission, and members are encouraged to review their needs before embarking on new quests.
This service ensures that guild members can augment their teams with skilled professionals, enhancing their chances of success and safety on their adventures.
