Vanguard Adventuring Guild
Formed by Ulubel Tabard and Ryuel Osteroth with support and funding from House Darkhood, Vanguard is an adventuring guild based out of the Hilt. It runs as an agency focused on connecting adventurers and mercenaries with those who need assistance, for a small price. Vanguard signs adventuring parties and notable fighters aboard, and then assigns them rankings to determine the type of work they get. Those signed onto Vanguard gain a number of benefits, but cannot do guild work for anyone but them. Vanguard also holds open recruiting, allowing adventurers to try out and do small jobs for the guild to prove themselves before being signed onto full time work.
Vanguard contracts are ranked by danger and payout, with the most dangerous and highest paying jobs reserved for those highest up in the guild.
A person can also pay a higher fee to request a specific adventuring band. This work (known through Guilds as Gigs) is most sought after, and requires well respected public appearance.
Vanguard receives hundreds of contracts and requests each day, and not all can get picked up by even lower level guild members. As such, they also hire out "Steel Bands". Steel Bands are criminals that owe money to Requiem in the form of fines or even jail time. Vanguard can buy out the fine with the criminals consent, assign them to contracts others won't take in return for some freedom and the slow paying off of their debts.
Vanguard is now run Ryuels son Sael Osteroth after his fathers retirement 4 years ago, and Ulubels departure 6 years ago.
