Moonshae Trade League
In the end, my holdings are worth nothing. The degree that others benefit from my improvements is the measure of my value.
Ambassador Theadric Glittergold
This group believes that the best way to bring power and prestige to the Moonshaes is to expand trade with other cities and nations of the Sword Coast. Originally formed by investors from Amn, recent influx of money and influence from Baldur’s Gate, Waterdeep, and Luskan have shifted attitudes. While Amn influence is still a strong force, the trade league decided it’s best if decisions were controlled by guilders actually based in the Moonshaes. Their business practices, however, have changed little, if at all.
The Trade League seeks to expand their trade and holdings throughout the Moonshaes. Based primarily in Snowdown, they’ve established outposts, camps, and even villages on many of the other islands. Often, this expansion of enterprise comes at the expense of the local resources of the area, straining their relationship with the Defenders of the Earthmother.
Join the Trade League if...
• you are interested in obtaining wealth and assets
• you like diplomacy and political intrigue
Philosophy
While the Trade League is interested in expanding business and trade, material acquisitions are not their most valued asset. They believe that when the wise invest in the right people, the rewards naturally follow. Often, in the interest of the growth of the greater majority, it’s necessary to do things that may not outwardly benefit a smaller group. They see their expansion as a rising tide lifting all ships to prosperity. In the eyes of the Trade League, it takes great courage to do what’s best for others, even when those they seek to help don’t realize what’s best for themselves.Goals
• Primarily, they wish to expand their membership which facilitates their second goal. • To establish holdings and influence of their membership throughout the Moonshaes. • They often seek political offices to advance their initiatives.How do I fit in?
Adventuring members of the Trade League are critical to its success. Adventurers are often present, indeed responsible for, the most significant events that change the course of a region. Having representation at these crucial times is vital. Reputation and integrity in business dealings are of utmost importance, and you follow a strict code of ethics in all formal dealings. This is not to say that all deals are good for everyone involved, but honor in establishing the deal is non-negotiable. If a fellow member approaches you with a need for assistance, it is good form to at least make an effort to help or risk tarnishing your noble image. After all, bad news travel fast.Inside the Trade League
The leadership of the Trade League is comprised of a council of well-established investors. Senior members, called Ambassadors, carry special league coins to offer to those who have proven themselves to be friends of the Trade League. A person bearing one of these coins would be welcome to join their ranks, or at least be recognized as friendly to their cause.Politics
The bulk of the organization leaders live in Snowdown, which is ruled by the Viceroy of Westphal, Lady Erliza Daressin, who is loyal to Amn. This does not mean the Trade League is in favor of their domination of Snowdown. In fact, the League wants to remove Viceroy Erliza from power believing her to be reckless and bad for business. They actually value the potential stability that a unified Moonshae would offer.Resources
The Trade League’s most impressive current holding is MTL Shipbuilders in Snowdown. One of the largest ship building ventures anywhere, they produce primarily trade vessels for moving resources to and from the Sword Coast, Chult, and the other islands. This comes at the expense of the timber resources of Snowdown. In addition, the Trade League has significant influence and connections to offer its members. Advancing in rank offers opportunity to acquire holdings beyond the options available to other players.Если вы хотите что то добавить или присоединится к команде редакторов - пишите комментарии
