Agriculturalists

Agriculturalists are the Talori herd's farmers and gatherers, providing the herd with all manner of food, medicine, materials, and familiars.

== Overview ==
Strong and dauntless, Agriculturists are the backbone of the herd. More than ordinary farmers growing fresh fruits and vegetables for the herd and for trade, many also brave the wilds and the sea in search of components for the Brewers and items for craftsmen, as well as fruits and vegetables that only grow in the environment the rain forest provides. Without these horses, life in Aquore would cease to exist.
=== Farming ===
Farmers in Aquore provide most of the herd's food, medicinal herbs and plants, and other components. Farms vary from place to place and town to town depending on the individual and what grows best in most areas. These agriculturalists learn all they can about plant diseases and how to treat them, natural insect repellents to keep harmful bugs from destroying their crops, and how to get the best yield out of every harvest. They are hard working, knowledgeable individuals who are often said to possess a green hoof.
=== Gathering ===
Agriculturalists who venture into the wilds are of different stock. Quick and sure footed, they brave the wilds or the seas in search of all manner of plants and other treasures the peninsula has to offer. Often putting themselves in harms way, they gather the things that won't grow when farmed. Medicinal and toxic plants are the most sought after, though there are plenty of hot ticket edible plants as well. They also have a tendency to pick up any neat odds and ends they find. Remains of shipwrecks are quite popular among agriculturalists who gather in the seas, while the odd gemstone or forgotten rogue cache can be found within the Wilds.
Some agriculturalists skip the flora all together, preferring to focus instead on the fauna Aquore has to offer. They capture creatures native to the Wilds or the Great Aquorian Sea for sale and breeding by Aquore's familiar keepers. Fewer still will take their own familiars out to hunt or fish, seeking meat to be sold as food for the herd's familiars, while making even more money off the pelts and bones of the creatures as well.
