The Sisters of Mercy  Out of Earshot the sisters of Mercy are sometimes called the Sisters of Greed. And while these women dedicate themselves to the Church Triumphant they are one of the longest standing diplomatic bludgeons of civility in an uncivilized world that the church can weild. In the ruin of the cataclysm, few professions... or even other agents of a priestly calling ...have so completely retained the ability to heal and access to the powers of their divine benefactor of healing.  These women maintain an obvious and powerful connection to the Domain of Healing during the darkest ages. Lending to the impossibility that any might claim the sisterhood was not indeed truly blessed by a divine agency. Their services however necessary are not free. The penitent can pay with service …but all else must pay with more lustrous tokens of value. GOLD.

Raven Guardsmen  In this age, there is an oft repeated question. Though it may be received with a certain amount of surliness by the Priests of the Imperial order. “Why is it that those who have unquestioned closeness to divinity are not directly leading congregations of the faithful?" The answer given, with out fail, is that  “Those individuals chosen to become a Raven Guardsman, are specifically gifted to protect the righteous, to persecute of the wicked, as a vanguard of the common good.”  Any local Rookery is an administrative center of the para militant investigatory network,  reporting their findings to the Church Triumphant as professional service. Only a few people are sufficiently educated as to be aware that the Rookery is far older than any portion of the Church. According to Lore, the Ravens Guard was an institution of power back when all humans still worshiped the Titans, the deities the Church now vilifies as Pagan.

Any inquisitor in professional garb will be called a Raven Questioner, as a matter of respect. A respect so ingrained in the common folk that they are often accorded the same level of status as the landed gentry, although not so much as a Knight. The common folk see questioners as detectives inspired by divine providence. Men and women who occasionally moonlight as civic policemen, and are welcome for their service. But whose ordained role is to seek out the activities of supernatural entities who are attempting to control mortal men for external agendas. While a Raven will act as an investigator to an regional mortal facility (upon request). They actively enforce breaches to a unique set of laws.
Laws THEY call the Pillars of Order.
Laws which Govern the USE of MAGICNot to be confused with the Laws of Magic.

Crusaders of Vigilance" at least to themselves ...but the public might and they are rightly called 'Vigilantes'  Sometimes called 'Heralds' (Paladins)
Wardens of the Green” Sometimes called 'Greenbonds'   (Rangers)
Akashic Brothers”  Sometimes called 'LawKeepers' (Monks)

Sons of Yew The an organization of bards connected to the Druidic faith. Members combine the roles of warrior, thief, spy, and poet.  Though they may also be assassins, diplomats, shamans, or tutors of pagan kings.

Scouts of Tethic  One of the few Warden and Sentry 'guilds' in the known world. If you need a guide of road and through the Savage Wyld, a bounty hunter, a hunting companion, or someone to simply be loyal to your interests, these are the people for you. They carry a sash of red, denoting their position. Anyone found wearing one of their sashes and is not a guild member may be subject to guild reprisals. Likewise for any one interfering with a scout in the course of their duty. They also serve as an informal postal service carrying official dispatches and personal correspondence alike. Many of the Scouts are literate and offer a letter writing service. The Scouts have no base or guild hall. They are an entirely mobile entity.

The Blackened Ring is not in itself a mercenary company instead it is a guild which organizes and facilitates the hiring of local mercenaries and sell swords for specific jobs. The Ring establishes prices for a specific set of services, although other services can be arranged with the mercenary once haggling begins. The Ring ensures a certain code of honor within the constraints of reason. They will ensure that this code is adhered to by one means or another. Few mercenaries who have joined the guild are willing to go against it in regards to this code. The reach of the Blackened Ring is long and it does not forget.
