Historical Society

The Historical Society is a guild devoted to researching the origins of Riverguard, and the nature of the Mesa itself. With it's huge guild hall located in the heart of Warptown, the group devotes much of its efforts to the recovery and study of ancient artifacts, finding and exploring lost ruins, and investigating rumors of potential discovery. The Society is headed by the Halfling cleric, Nayme.

Guild Hall
The guild hall of the Historical Society is a massive domed building that would easily pass for a cathedral if it weren't for it's complete lack of religious imagery. The grey stone building is the only location in the city which has been accurately restored by the Construction Guild to as close to it's original architecture as possible, without Dwarven "upgrades" being done to it.

The double doors open to a huge room that looks like a combination library and archaeological dig site. There are shelves 12 foot tall holding books and scrolls of all manner. There are artifacts presumably brought to the hall for further study. There are small offices lining the side of the space, but all of the doors are closed. Researchers buzz around and take notes on their observations or findings in their books.

Assignments
The Historical Society has collected a huge number of reports and documented countless rumors that they have yet to investigate, often due to the potential danger. Most of their ranks consist of scholars more handy with pens and magnifying glasses than swords and spells. They are always looking for bold agents to send on assignments that may get... messy. Knowledge is their true end; unless the mission has special parameters, agents are typically required to investigate and file reports, keeping any loot they may recover in the process. If the report indicates the location has been secured, then the society will send out a research team to complete their studies.

Known Assignments

 * Audiomancer's Tomb

Library of Lore
The group has made it their mission to collect as much information as they can from any corner of the Mesa. They have amassed huge collection of tomes, scrolls, and tablets that record stories, myths, songs, and legends, in addition to history. Some of these volumes are penned by the scribes of the society themselves, often written records of verbal accounts. Others are gifts from faraway cultures, or plunder from unearthed ruins. If there ever seems like there should be more pieces to a particular puzzle, the Library is an excellent place to conduct research.
