The Shapers Guild
House Zend-Wynn
In the vast expanse of Ertha, the Shapers are skilled artisans, capable of crafting mystical items that amplify strength or offer defense. However, their crafting adheres to clandestine principles, unique to their circles.
The Shapers Guild represents one facet of a once unified coin the old fraternity and its counterpart in the sorority. The Shapers imbued their inventions with magic, creating awe-inspiring weapons and enchanting rings. Tragically, the First Age War saw the demise of the original Shapers’ fraternal guild.
As the embers of the war faded, the Shapers’ sorority, previously concealed in the shadows, emerged, embracing a newfound prominence during the Second Age’s reformation. Throughout the war, they discreetly salvaged the precious knowledge of the dwindling Shapers’ fraternity, preserving a legacy on the brink of oblivion.
