Teca Trailblazers

### Description:

The Teca trailblazers are a trading faction that focus on the delivery of good all around xeque, this faction is the main distributor for all of the food and goods that are produced in Xeque around the country, they focus on making deliveries fast and efficient due to the treacherous terrain that they handle every day, they also do deliveries and trading outside of xeque as it is a way to train the new members of the Teca Trialblazers on how to navigate, deal with incidents, move efficiently and not waste any energy while making a delivery and trading.

The Teca trailblazers base is located in the city of Citlali in Xeque near the border with Blueridge and hashan, this is the main trading point for all of the Teca trailblazers, as they have carved paths that are "secure" to travel in between all of the 4 cities of Xeque, as they use those trails to move the merchandise to Citlali where it is stored until it's need to be transported to another place, they also use the river network that Xeque has for any major shipments, however this is only done when they get blood from the monster hunter faction as they use the blood to cover the rafts and boats that they use so that they don't get attacked by an overwhelming amount of monstrosities from the jungle while making the shipment.

Apart from the management of the shipments, the Teca Trailblazers also do the delivery of mail and packages to train new members and to do networking to build a new network of possible customers to trade with.

The Trailblazers currently have 2 active location, their base of operations in Citlali and an outpost in the entrance of the Xeque river, most commonly known as the Umi outpost, as it is the only big enough entrance from the sea to the river system in the region and it is the only port currently located within Xeque.

### Faction Benefits:

##### (Active) **Navigation Expert:**

Each of the members of the Trailblazers obtains a magical map made from Vitae. This magical map shows the exact location of the trailblazer. The Trailblazer may use the magics of the map to get out of difficult situations. As a bonus action the trailblazer can use the map to teleport up to 90 feet to an unoccupied space that you can see. The map uses its magic to teleport and recharges after a long rest. Once it’s magic is used the map no longer shows the location until it’s recharged.
