Guilds and Factions

Silver Merchant Guild - A guild of merchants based in the Grand Duchy. Unlike their name suggests they do not deal in silver or at least not exclusively. Instead, it refers to the silver moonlight from one of the seven moons. Their extensive connections throughout the Grand Duchy and the rest of the known world has given the guild a place among the elite of Kharsyt and the Grand Duchy.
The Monster Hunters - While the Hunters are based in Noctirnan they are not part of the Grand Duchy. In fact, the Grand Duchy has made several attempts to integrate them but they have been denied and stopped every time. Despite this, it is an undeniable fact that the Hunters are held in high regard by the people of Noctirnan. As such, they also have power within Kharsyt and the rest of the Grand Duchy. When it comes to monsters or monster related matters Hunters have jurisdiction over the military and anything they say is seen as fact. It should be mentioned that two orders of the Hunters are based within the Grand Duchy.
The Night Crafter Guild - a guild of craftsmen who specialize in weapons and armor made from the unique monsters in Noctirnan as well as the weapons that kill them. The guild can be very selective in its members and is said to even refuse to bend to pressure from the nobles to train someone. It is said that they only have as much power as they do because they are rumored to craft secret powerful weapons for the Grand Duchy.
Order of Dusk - An order of knights with close ties to the nobility of the Grand Duchy. It is rumored that the Order carries out some of the more sinister and merciless missions that the Grand Duchy cannot be seen doing. Such rumors about an honorable knighthood are unfounded of course and those that spread them should be reported.
