This guild is rich and busy and offends few. Its wares are reasonably priced and its dyes goodthey bleed and stain little, and fade only slowly. Guild members will gladly dye garments to order, although patterns and devices must not mock, closely resemble, or duplicate the heraldic devices of the city, Lords, or noblesa Lords Edict on this point is strictly obeyed by the guild. Guilds, nobles, and others with a clear legal right to such designs may, of course, order work bearing them from this guild, a process involving a written request bearing as witness a Magisters (or Piergeirons) signature.
The Order has over 2,000 members, most human, and over half female. Its current master is head of the noble family Lanngolyn, and she takes care that members avoid controversy, shady dealings, and large expenses, all of which makes this guild of little interest to adventurers.
Notable Members

Aelandelia Swiftleaf Weaver and Apprentice Wizard Pleasant of demeanor and beautiful in the unassuming way so many folk of elfin blood are, Aelandelia was a weaver's apprentice when she discovered her talent for magic. Though she is poor, she came to Blackstaff Tower and remained outside his gate for six days and nights before he accepted her as an apprentice. Her stoicism and drive impressed the archmage then, and continues to do so now. She has long honey-blonde hair down past her waist, and eyes of pale frosty blue. Though she wears simple homespun dresses as she works, they do nothing to detract from her obvious beauty. Aelandelia is a member of the Most Excellent Order of Weavers and Dyers. |
