Waterdeep Dragon Heist: Establishing a new guild (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

submitted 1 year ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

4 comments fedilink hide all child comments

a player of mine would like to establish a new guild.

I've considered a few things, they probably have to establish a charter, have a few members before being fully established and recognized by the city.

I don't have any legislative knowledge though what else would they have to do? what would this process look like?

Make it up! It's your world, so put your own spin on it. If someone complains, BS a reason behind it and connect it to some lore about a hero that changed or fucked something up and since then they've always done it that way.
Some things to consider:

operating funds. Should they have a minimum of gp to set up? Should their be a minimum per month operating cost for admin staff? Taxes by city?
location. Should they need a guild hall? Do they have to buy the property or rent?
buyin from residents. Do they need support from residents to do it? Do they need to take care of some sidequests to get support of a few cantankerous councilman?
make up a weird third category. Do they need to throw a feast? Do they need to decorate their hall with the heads of monsters they killed? Does the local temple offer a blessing (with benefits for members) if they do some task?
