Regarding Sex: The Guild of Adventurers Upon Return does not discriminate on the basis of gender, nor does it make accommodations on the basis of gender. The guild has a policy of modesty, and frowns upon both 'beefcake' and 'cheesecake' adventurers. Journeymen (and journeywomen) may both be censured should they flaunt or deviate from the code of dress. Bared flesh is easily cut, and the scantily clad are easily slain. Those who refuse to comply will be removed from their chapter and released from the guild, and advised that they should join a barbarian tribe, brothel, or natural/nudist sect.

Regarding Armor: The Guild of Adventurers Upon Return encourages the use of body armor. In the case of leather and light armors, a pigment wash, surcote, or even large sash of the appropriate color is acceptable. For full metal armors, the surcote, sash, or cape are acceptable for demarcating colors. The Guild does frown upon ornate or decorative armors, as this is generally considered the domain of nobility and royalty. Likewise, thorned, spiked, and otherwise 'barbaric' armor is frowned upon. The Adventurer Upon Return is an upstanding member of the community, not a raider or mercenary soldier for hire. (Ignoring the irony of the fact that the adventurer upon return is technically just that)

Regarding Ethnic Garb and Traditions: The Guild of Adventurers Upon Return has a limited policy for the ethnic garb and traditions of non-local members. They may adopt some of their former vestments, such as distinguishing headware, footwear, and such, but these must remain modest in nature, and follow the code of colors. The same follows for cultural and ethnic traditions. These may be followed save for where they come in conflict with the guild code.

Regarding Race: While the Guild was created by, and is predominated by humans, there is no proscription against non-human members. So long as an applicant demonstrates and neutral or lawful good alignment, they can enter an apprenticeship in the guild. The guild does not allow non-humanoid non-humans to join, thus a civilized and cultured bugbear or highbrow goblin may join, a dragon, medusa, or other monstrous being may not.

Of Uniforms: the Guild of Adventurers Upon Return typically has deals and arrangements with local cloth makers, dye makers, and tailors to ensure the supply of uniforms that they need. These are typically made by the apprentices and trainees of those guilds. Being a Guild Adventurer means buying guild approved gear, and as rank increases, so does the cost. The blue journeyman tunic costs no more to make, but the status of wearing the blue means that it can cost 3 to 5 times what the green does. Likewise, the colors of the guild, and it's specific uniform tunic patterns are restricted to guild members only. A person who had gained guild wear by illicit means can expect consequences and repercussions from the Guild members.
