INFORMATION
The Regalia Wayfinders is an independent, neutral, and privately-owned Adventurer's Guild supported by Regalia Mercantile Company. It was established to address the needs of upstanding citizens of Etheirys after the countless tragedies that have plagued our star.The world over now seeks to rebuild after these events, leaving the various city-states and Grand Companies with an abundance of work to be completed. Thus, the Regalia Wayfinders' goal is to provide solutions to such problems through adventuring skills, crafting, gathering, and other applicable trades.Established by Esmeraude Diamandis, the Regalia Wayfinders' Main Headquarters can be found within the Regalia Company Estate, as well as a satellite branch within the Heavenly Hearth Tavern, as the crossroads for adventurers and able-bodied folk to gather.This Adventurer's Guild system is supported by specially-designed devices inspired by Allagan technology to provide ease of communication, and information sharing and gathering. The Allagan artificially-intelligent construct by the name of A1-R1, or 'Airi', is responsible for the management of requests. Using experimental Allagan tomestones, referred to as 'Waystones', each adventurer pledging itself to the cause of the Regalia Wayfinders will be provided a Waystone in order to participate in various requests.
MEMBERSHIP
To join the Regalia Wayfinders, simply speak with Unit A1-R1, Esmeraude Diamandis, or any other Wayfinders staff.Upon finishing a brief interview as to your identity and specialties, you will be provided a Waystone for the purposes of finding requests to fulfill and contacting other members of the Regalia Wayfinders.Joining the Wayfinders is not a limiting commitment. Any adventurers pledging themselves to the cause will be provided a Waystone by the Guild, access to a steady stream of jobs for income, and certain benefits once they have proven themselves reliable to the Wayfinders. Each member is still free to pursue other lines of work, and be affiliated to other companies.We hope that you will join us on our mission to forge a brighter future for our star, and to contribute in whatever means you are able.

Focused on her philanthropic efforts, she chooses to aid the honest and hard-working citizens of Etheirys not with a blade, but through her artisanal and mercantile skills.Through the creation, development, and trading of various goods, the profits from her numerous projects, such as the Diamandis Craftworks, the Heavenly Hearth Tavern, and now, the Regalia Wayfinders, she seeks to continue and improve the cycle which sustains both her staff and clients so that all may prosper.
