====== Furria Guild ======
The **Furria Guild** is a volunteer-centric guild-like community that provides several services across [[world:fiagia|Fiagia]] and its [[world:moons|moons]]. The guild is aimed to provide international services that help ease to provide opportunities to its inhabitants, mostly acting as the intermediary (middleman) and relay to most interactions than acting on its own.

Establishments of the Furria Guild can be found and scattered through towns and settlements across Fiagia and its moons and is managed entirely by volunteers. One main headquarter is found in each continent and moon to serve as the main center of operations for the whole continent.

Lesser establishments can also be stood up by registered sub-guilds of the Furria Guild.

===== Appearance =====
The Furria Guild is a large or small settlement found inside a town or place depending on its size and place. It contains several services that can cater to the specific town/settlement. It can be one large building or a rough place of buildings working as one entity. The style of it varies based on the town or place they are settled in.

Almost all of the guild settlements have common features: such as a lounge, a shared space, a lobby, a mini-restaurant for anyone to hang out inside.

One notable symbol to recognize that the location is an establishment of the Furria Guild is that their prominent insignia is similar to Furria's common logo. ({{wiki:ficon_ttropes.png?linkonly|example}})

===== Services =====
The Furria Guild provides support to those who interact with them through the use of multiple services. Most of these do require small amounts of [[culture:sylv|Sylv]] as contributions to keep the local branch running. Even though the guild is capable of giving all of these services, not all furria guild locations have all of them due to a restriction or availability of them.

Not all guild services are found inside the Furria Guild alone, but also in different locations inside the settlement.

A person does not require to register at the Furria Guild in order to access all of these services since the Furria Guild itself is a volunteer-centric community.

==== Guild Services ====
The guild offers services related to what they are originally intended for: to ease and provide opportunities. Among these, some services are provided that only the Furria Guild could uniquely provide without proper expertise.

=== Duty-related Offerings ===
  * ''*TASK'' **Task Offering**\\ -- The guild compiles all local tasks being offered to the guild and posts them on a board for individuals who seek to take on and complete these tasks.\\ 
  * ''rTASK'' **Research Services**\\ -- Outside of normal task offerings, local organizations can provide research tasks in order to help, support and provide further research technologies and development. These are done in the same way as task offerings are offered, but with more specific conditions.\\ 
  * ''TRAIN'' **Training Services**\\ -- A dedicated area provided for individuals and parties to simulate scenarios to challenge, spar and train themselves.

=== Organization-related Offerings ===
  * ''sCREO'' **Sub-guild Creation**\\ -- Any team can apply to be a sub-guild that accepts and takes their own tasks, comprising of multiple teams as they also compete in guild events.\\ 
  * ''tCREO'' **Team Creation**\\ -- A party can apply to be a dedicated team for the guild, allowing for commonly partied groups to work as a whole group instead of acting as one individual, a party or a mixture of individuals.

=== Unique Offerings ===
  * ''*REST'' **Rest Inn**\\ -- Unlike normal Inns, the guild's rest inn allows for any individual to rest inside one for a limited amount of hours compared to staying for a whole day. Perfect only for passing time and taking small breaks... as long they respect others who stay in there as well.\\ 
  * ''*CAST'' **Type-casting**\\ -- Rarely found in guild settlements, this service allows for any [[creature:typyl|Typyl]] to undergo [[culture:type-casting|type-casting]] for a high amount of Sylv depending on its complexity. The individual who undergoes this can take from hours to days to reflect these changes once they are committed.

==== Merchant Services ====
The guild not only provides their own services, but also act as one facet for the local market, mostly providing basic essentials to all travelers and adventurers in-between. All of these require or use sylv and items and prices may very between settlements depending on their availability.

  * ''CHEST'' **Cross-location Storage**\\ -- Offers the ability to store items inside a personal storage that can be accessed at every branch of the Furria Guild within the same continent for a small amount of Sylv. Retrieving items stored from another location has a slight increase on cost. Retrieving items from another continent is impossible.
  * ''*SAFE'' **Sylv Crystalization Storage**\\ -- Offers the ability to store Sylv for storage. It works similar to cross-location storage except it does not cost any Sylv to transfer in-between. Sometimes, cross-location storage work together at the same spot.

=== Travel Offerings ===
  * ''oPORT'' **Outpost Transport Services**\\ -- If one does not mind waiting for transport from one settlement to another, a traveler can apply to take passage using this service. This does not pass through the sea and sky, which has a different service altogether.
  * ''aPORT'' **Flight Services**\\ -- Similar to outpost transport services, this service allows passage through different ports in the sky. This does not necessarily mean it offers town to town services, only locations with ports.
  * ''sPORT'' **Cruise Services**\\ -- Like flight services, this service offers passage through different ports around a body of water instead.

=== Teleportation Offerings ===
  * ''iWARP'' **Local Transport Services**\\ -- The guild has several [[class:portia|Portia]] placed around the settlement if the location is too large, offering Teleportation around the town for easier travel for free.

Locations available for teleportation and their price depends on the location and further locations take more sylv.
