Guilds

Internationally recognized, Guilds are a system in which a variety of classes work and interact through job requests, which must be followed and written down following the job request rubric, depending on which guild and job is needed. 
== Overview ==
There are three types of guilds: Official (recognized by their government), Lost (guilds that are not recognized as official), and Neutral (guilds that are not allowed to participate in international matters and stay neutral) So far, there are:
* Magic Guilds-Guilds that employ the use of wizards or magical items to complete jobs.
* Trade Guilds-Guilds that employ artisanal or economic experts to complete jobs.
* Mercenary/Knight Guilds-Guilds that employ the use of military/non magic warriors to complete jobs (assassinations are illegal, so only Lost Mercenary guilds perform them.)
* Transportation Guilds-Guilds that are in charge of transportation in their respective area. All transport guilds are required to be neutral, especially if they cross borders. Transport guilds are the most common guilds besides magic or trade guilds, and also often interact with subtypes of guilds like industrial or work guilds.
*Animals/Breeding Guilds-Guilds that employ animal experts and breeders, such as veterinarians, animal breeders, zoologists, etc.
* Agricultural Guilds-Guilds that employ agricultural experts, such as farmers and environmentalists. Agricultural guilds are commonly employed under their respective government, and is unlike most guilds because there is a lack of a competitive nature in AGs.
* Institutional Guilds-Guilds that employ teaching or educational experts. Like agricultural guilds, they are often employed by their respective governments, but can be competitive, and often institutional guilds own their own universities/colleges or schools in their areas.
== Guild Organization ==
Most guilds follow a similar format of how members are ranked. It goes:
Old Hand (Master): The main authority and the strongest member of the guild. Strength depends on type of guild, but the old hand is responsible for paperwork, relations, image/reputation, and finalizing decisions for their guild. The old hand status can be inherited by the previous one, chosen, elected, or more. One thing is certain though, the old hand must be proven by not only the government, but their members, to be able to lead and is very strong.
Right Hand: The backup/advisor of the Old Hand. Usually the second strongest member of the guild, the Right Hand must take an oath of loyalty if they are to be chosen by the Old Hand. One of the most rewarding ranks to be in, and often Right Hands are in their position for life.
Ace: Some of the strongest members of the guild. Is more socially a rank, unless the master deems them as an Ace officially. Aces are able to take any job, regardless of difficulty.
Maven: Usually below Aces (although someone can be a Maven and an Ace simultaneously), the Mavens are more like leaders of their own teams or sections of the guilds. Old hands usually employ a maven as a job administrator, acting in their place to put up and approve members of going on jobs when the master isn’t present. 
Greenhorns/Classic Members-The newest and/or lowest ranked members of a guild. They cannot take high ranking jobs or be leaders of their team unless they move up in the ranks, and are often the majority in a guild.

Azar Crest 	One of the strongest guilds in Ertho. Conceived by the First Hand Marmory Elliman, Azar Crest was born from a dream they had in which they saw a beautiful family, born from light and love within the hearts of its members. Marmory then witnessed their phoenix, known as Azar, die and then be reborn, but had retained the memories and love of their master. In turn, Marmory named the guild after Azar, and the "crest", as well as the color of the guild flag, after the phoenix's brilliant heart and colors. Azar Crest, after being 2nd place for a majority of their attempts, finally gained the title of the Jubilee Emperors in the 27th World Guild Jubilee.	Beem Gedras 	Orvand Gedras 	Active	 	"Heart and Soul is everlasting."
Cadenza 	Another strong guild in Ertho, this musical guild is populated mostly with famous singers. While purely a coincidence, there is a rumor that the Lovran sisters are biased towards wizards who possess song-based magic. Cadenza placed 7th in the World Guild Jubilee. 	Aria Lovran 	Medily Lovran 	Active	 	"Song seals and brightens!"
Kore Heel 	A guild located in Ishgita. As an all-female guild, only women are allowed in and was formed from a mother-daughter duo. Kore Heel placed 4th place in the World Guild Jubilee, which was impressive for their relatively small influence. 	Perse Troia 	Deme Wanaso 	Active	 	"Maiden's splendor and flourishment."
Cerulean Wisp	Once a lost guild, Cerulean Wisp was then reformed by Boreas Patuna and overthrown, whom soon became their new Old Hand. Cerulean Wisp has no official rank due to their relatively new status as an official guild. 	Boreas Patuna 	Mark Dinlas 	Active	 	"Spirits that scream into the deep blue!"
Empusa Skin 	A guild that seems to accept or specialize in powerful animal or beast based magics, although there is a lot of intelligent minds in this guild despite their beefy and beastly majority. 	Alastor Meeden 	Glaucus Nedear 	Active	 	"Devotion to the mind and body!"
Typhon Scale 	A guild that seems intimidating on the outside, but on the inside has a friendly rivalry with Azar Crest. 	Elisofia Pollux	Alisaria Pollux	Active	 	"Success belongs in the hands of the mighty."
