The Crimson Shield
The original group that eventually founded the Crimson Shield were a rag tag group of diverse talents. Their unifying principal was that through diversity there was strength. As they adventured together they soon learned that they would need to support each other of they were going to be able to equip themselves for the adventures ahead of them. They began working on various crafts and today the guild boast some of the greatest craftsmen in the land in nearly every field. As their skills improved they conceived of the idea of using their talents to help equip and train others for the fight against Blood. This led them to purchase a house in Fort Wayfare and open the Fort Wayfare Adventurer's Supply.
The proceeds from their trade eventually enabled them to form officially as a guild and begin excavation of the guild house which is now a permanent fixture in the Fort Wayfare landscape.
Since then the guild membership has grown and the guild influence has spread beyond Mistone to all of Layonara. The guild has contributed nearly unmatched funds to every major fund raiser including the support for Emergency Resolution #34 to support the people of Mistone and the relief effort in support of the Rohden Alliance. This demonstrates the tremendous generosity of the guild's membership. Its members have also been involved in many of the efforts to defeat Blood's generals as well as innumerable adventure's throughout the lands. Current guild priorities include the restoration of Alindor following the deposition of Milara, relief for the people of Rohden, and the restoration and purification of the Forest of Moans near their beloved Fort Wayfare.
The guild's membership has included Yar D' Ydnar who fell and is now remembered in the Hall of Heroes.
