Da Kaladokvo'Barimmarr

The Architect’s Collective of Urguan, founded and chartered in the year 256 of the second age, was established to address the ever-present issue of inexperienced builders seeking to stake their own claim on the land and permanently change the landscape around our home. This guild is designed as both a safeguard and a solution to that issue, providing both a guard against inexperienced hands and a tool to be placed into the very same.

 

Rankings

The Council of Architects
Composed of a small troupe of well-established builders, the council will take on all core responsibilities of the guild, including the following:
Receiving and completing commissions from external clientele, completing major orders from the state and other affiliated parties, training and certifying new and minor builders, and judging the contents of builds by lesser builders, as well as the uninitiated.

 

The Secretary

While technically the guild lord, this role is simply used for administrative purposes, serving as a mediator and public face for the otherwise busy members, doling out commissions and tasks as the need arises, as well as meeting with the clientele initially.

 

The Builders

The heart and soul of the guild, these lower circle builders will take on the majority of the minor orders, and should their effort be seen, even ascend to the council, and continue the Guild’s efforts from above.

 

Responsibilities

As a guild, the primary and penultimate task of the guild is to ensure that dwarven architecture is held up to the highest of standards.

To ensure this, proven guild members, and especially council members, have the final say in regards to completion and execution of a project. 

Non-members, residing in Urguan, are to be redirected toward the guild's members and commissary boxes. Simple renovation and rearrangement may be done by trusted non-members, or on temporary permission, but anything larger must be overseen or committed by a member of the guild unless it is by a member of the King’s council or the Urguan leadership. 

 

Pricing

With vastly different projects between different minds and needs, pricing will vary between each independent builder, though it is expected to be charged more by a council member.

By default, pricing will vary on the build, though the base fee will range from 20 mina for minor, decorative builds, and 50 mina for normal to major operational builds, and finally, 300 mina for a vassal-sized build and beyond. This is the Base price, applied by the state, and not represented by the individually hired builder. 

State builds waive this fee, and builders are compensated appropriately.

 

Joining

Potential members must seek out and organize a trialing appointment with the secretary, and for a small fee of 10 mina,  they will then be assigned and gauged by a current member of the council. After which, their skill will be declared, and additional training offered, should any of the council members have time. If the potential builder is deemed complete in their studies and skills, their certificate of membership will be assigned, and they may begin completing commissions as offered.
