The Guild of Cartographers:Also known as the guild thats better than the rest, we cartographers chart out all the world. Why? World Domination. Knowledge is the medium to dominate the world, and knowledge of terrain (for wars, etc) is a crucial piece of that. The only reason why we cartographers sell maps to those clueless schmucks is that we may not have, shall we say, all the, uh, necasary funds for the, uh, merc army we would need for domination.
Requirements:
To join the best guild, one must make
THREE LOCATION SUBS, to gain the experience of field labor, exploration, and struggle that our minions, the explorers, go through, and the struggles they fought through to bring back the map you hold in your hands. You must also show great quality in your penmenship, and so one such of the above subs must be voted
3.5 OR HIGHER UNTIL YOU FINISH THE REMAINING REQUIREMENTS. What is the point of holding a map in your hand if no one can read the name of the city two and two tenths of a mile in a north north westerly direction? But old news is just that- old news, and thus has no effect on everyday life, which is why your maps only need to stay current until you finish joining. But perhaps most important of all, one must gain a good sense of where things are. As such, one must
VOTE ON THREE LOCATION SUBS. How else will one know where the unknown places are (to send explorers) if you know not basic geography? But a fourth requirement is also needed. As cartographers, we need to know of the people in foreign lands. How will they react to our brutal take over? Do they have a primitive form of bio-warfare? How do there blue berry muffins taste? What are there gods? As such, a cartographer must write
ONE SOCIETY SUB. And this society can include other intelligent race's cultures. And for all subs pertaining to the noble art of cartography, you must
ADD THE FREETEXT 'CARTOGRAPHY GUILD.'.
Once you have joined the noble guild of cartography, you gain the title of Cartographer, Minor Minion. A cartographer is always smart- as such, at least a 4 in intelligence.
