Tradier's Post (Aerilon Branch)

Location

The city branch of the Tradiers in Aerilon, Joriah, is located in a large, five-story tower with two-story building attached, found towards the centre of the Sprawling Bazaar, the Tradier crest, a heater-style shield depicting a mountain with a crown above the peak, decorating all sides of the highest floor.

Building

This large tower and building are built with thick grey stones, weathered by time as moss and ivy have long since established themselves as part of this structure having now covered just over half of the tower and most of the lower building. The top of the building doubles as a watch tower with an embattled parapet and several guards stationed at any given time. Narrow windows with iron reinforcements are built in at even intervals into the stone work, the outer doors are equally reinforced and decorated with iron embellishments and the crest.

Entering the main hall inside the tower, the stone and ironwork continues in what would be a cold room if not for the hearth crackling behind a large desk attended by several staff to assist civilians. Large paintings of various Jorian landscapes and buildings adorn the walls alongside colourful banners and wall torches that keep the space warmly lit.

Staff

Leaders

Captain Morgrim Stonefist, a stoic male dwarf with dark red hair and a beard just past his chest that's streaked with grey. Deep brown eyes look calculating under thick bushy eyebrows and wrinkles are starting to settle in across his face. He has been the Captain of the Tradiers for 9 years, but has been working under the banner for about 40 years now, he is known for being pragmatic and well-respected, but gruff and firm.

Lieutenant Gwendolyn Bright, Human, Dawn Watch commander, meticulous organizer

Lieutenant Hilda Goldbeard, Dwarf, Dusk Watch, former miner turned guard

Lieutenant Seraphine Mistral, Half-elf, Night Watch, quiet but observant

Front Desk

Mara, a shorter, lithe human female in her mid 40s, she has close-cropped silver streaked hair and sea green eyes, a quill, oft forgotten is tucked behind her left ear and reading glasses hang from a cord around her neck. She is very precise in how she speaks, never rude but rarely warm. She is patient to a fault with honest confusion, but detest time wasters.

Harg, a broad shouldered dwarf, getting on in his years but he keeps his grey hair very short and his brow is often furrowed over his light brown eyes, he has a rigid iron prosthetic in place of his left hand and he refuses to upgrade to something with some mobility. He is very fair in his work but immovable on procedure; he cannot be charmed, bribed or rushed.

Primrose, a bright-eyed halfling with wild copper streaked hair pinned back by callipers and perpetual quill ink stains on the tips of her fingers. She speaks quickly and cheerfully, often appearing haphazard but she keeps meticulous records on all reports, merchants and visitors, accidentally creating what may be the most comprehensive intelligence network in the kingdom.
