Note that Universal Guild members are not rangers , really, but tough, capable wandering slayers. A character has to be a wandering slayer to belong to the UG, rather than a fancy pants fighter specialist type. UG guilders learn their trade on the road, sneering at the weapons guilders in their cloistered training halls. | Note that Universal Guild members are not rangers , really, but tough, capable wandering slayers.

'''Outsider' Guilds''' : 'Outsider' guilds, based in the capital city, were founded as a safe way to recruit dangerous but useful non-human slayers. They include a Lizardfolk guild (the Bogland Band?) , for LF , and a Greenskin Guild for hobgoblins. They are treated with a measure of disdain (perhaps like 'native' companies in a colonial force) but also have some cachet and mystique. | '''Outsider' Guilds''' : 'Outsider' guilds, based in the capital city, were founded as a safe way to recruit dangerous but useful non-human slayers.

'''Origins:''' The world was once disunified and ruled by a ruthless military feudal order, like medieval europe's , with a totalitarian church. The theurges saw that this led to continuous warfare, crusade, etc., so managed somehow to wrest control from both the battle-obsessed barons and the hobgoblin warlords they struggled with. The tipping point was a huge inter racial war which threatened to cause chaos and death. Until then lesser players in the society, they intervened [we don't really know how, yet, nudge, nudge] and won control for themselves. They are anti-military, which is the reason the guilds exist- they do the job of fighting but have no political power. | '''Origins:''' The world was once disunified and ruled by a ruthless military feudal order, like medieval europe's , with a totalitarian church.
