Chandlers Guild

The medieval equivalent of lighting technicians, chandlers supply the households of EO with candles — and also soap, as this is a natural by-product of the candle-making process. There are two different types of chandler in medieval times: wax chandlers, who are supported by the church and nobility (since wax candles have a pleasant smell and create very little smoke), and tallow chandlers, who fashion their cheaper candles out of animal fat and Sell their stinky, smoky, and sometimes dangerous wares to the lower classes.
