The Merchants' Confederation
Purpose: The Merchants' Confederation is a loose gathering of traders, enchanters, and crafters designed to increase profit and sales of their wares.
Admission: Anyone with a background in crafts or sales, or an interest in either of the aforementioned, will be admitted into the Confederation. The first five (5) applicants will be allowed to join free of charge and immediately placed on the first Board of Directors, who will be asked to assist in the founding of workshops all across Althanas. Following that, a ten (10) gp fine will be enacted for entry into the Merchants' Confederation.
Financing: The Merchants' Confederation makes all of its money from either donation by members, or from a 5% levy of profits from any sale made by a member. In exchange, however, members will be allowed free access to a small workshop well stocked with supplies in almost any city on Althanas, as soon as they are made available.
Benefits: All members will be allowed full access to well stocked workshops all across Althanas, once they are made available. These workshops are kept stocked only, however, with the necessities of each trade. Also, once per quarter (three months) the Merchants' Confederation agrees to pay 10% of the cost of any rare item or ingredient necessary for the crafting of wares. Members of the Confederation are encouraged to work together on projects in order to procure the highest quality merchandise.
Ranks: All members of the Merchants' Confederation are considered equals. However, certain members are chosen each quarter (three months) as members of a Board of Directors. This Board of Directors consists of five individuals whose wares are of the highest quality, and the founder, Leon Adalbert. The members of the Board are charged with handling requests of specific items of value, and delegating these requests to other members of the Confederation, as well as setting the projected prices of the wares upon request. Final prices will be decided after the judging of the creation quest is complete and a link to the completed and judged quest. All profits (aside from the 5% levied fee) go to the crafters responsible.
