Pathfinder Guild

The PPG is an up-and coming company, personally funded by Councilwoman Wyssal. The goal of the PPG is to map out and claim the land on the Dark Continent. The continent is dangerous and scary; while anyone can get into the PPG, but only the strong of heart should apply. Those that join can gain reputation by completing expeditions, finding resources, clearing hunting grounds, or exploring especially dangerous areas. Losing reputation is near impossible, as any major transgressions would likely result in suspension of privileges or even outright expulsion. Higher reputation reflects skill in the field of exploration, as well as more privileges and power.The Pathfinder Guild pays finder’s fees for special resources and information discovered on the mapping expeditions. These premiums are paid to all expedition members present at the time of discovery..
: Resources: 100g(x character level)  each
: Secret Ruins, Ley-Lines, Places of Interest: 50g(x character level) plus 1 pathfinder rep each
: Scenic Locations and Features: 25g(x character level) each
Additionally, if an expedition eradicates a den or territory of dangerous monsters they will earn the respect and gratitude of all explorers, travellers and settlers to come!
: Hunting Grounds Cleared: 1 pathfinder rep each

Specialist Specialists have refined their trade after countless days and nights spent in the crucible that is the Dark Continent. Choose one of the following: Mountains, Hills, Forests, Plains, Swamps, Desert, Jungle, Cavern. Whenever a specialist is in the party, the party can move across the hex of their chosen biome more quickly. More than one specialist can allow for more than one biome, but two specialists of the same biome will not make the party go faster.

After years of service, some pathfinders are offered a position in the company. Not just as explorers, but also leaders and administrators. Venture lieutenants gain a bigger slice of the pie from discoveries (+20%), and gain the chance to help choose where their expeditions will go next. Not only that, but Venture Lieutenants learn how to adapt to the land and the local wildlife, increasing the speed boost in the terrain chosen from specialist, and also show a capability to stay hidden and alive by adding a +1 to the party's nightly encounter checks. (the bonuses do not stack)
