Forger's Guild Charter

Post by Sidas »

Statement of Purpose
We are the guardians of our craft, through which others may see and view the epitome of creation. We should be paragons of that which is expected by exceeding all standards set for others to follow.

Joining the Guild
Any current or prospective Forger is permitted to join the Guild itself. Membership does not require anything beyond a willingness to create something new.

To become a DreamSmith, a member of the Forging Guild must:
* Lead a minimum of three events pertaining to Forge to demonstrate your knowledge, ability, and willingness to further Forge.
* Once complete, seek the active DreamSmiths for their support to take to Ethor Frilg.
* It would be a good idea for a prospective DreamSmith to have an idea of how they wish to teach the Art of Forge Talisman and to wrap their idea around their unique perspective for the teaching and use of the art prior to seeking support.
* Prospective DreamSmiths who have been found to violate the form-less item rule must submit themselves to the DreamSmith Council. The DreamSmith Council will assign a set of taskings for the prospective DreamSmith to undergo prior to receiving the Mark. There will also be a three week penalty period from when the Prospective DreamSmith first begins to seek the DreamSmith Mark.

DreamSmith Rules
The creation of Formless items for anything beyond immediate, short-term use is deemed to be abuse of the art and a violation for a DreamSmith. These items should never be transferred to another dreamer. One who creates Formless items may only seek the Mark after undergoing additional trials outlined by the DreamSmith Council.

DreamSmith should endeavor to follow general “good practice” techniques for the creation of items. Most specifically, not attempting to create items to force emotions upon the holder.

Losing the DreamSmith Mark
A DreamSmith who does not dream for 2 months will be asked to remove their Sphere Crest immediately upon their return to the City and will be submitted for removal of the DreamsSmith mark. Tasking for the Art of Forge during this time will be deemed a violation of the Dreamsmith Charter and will be taken into consideration during their application process to regain the Mark.

A DreamSmith who blatantly and consistently refuses to teach the art of Forge Talisman, will be submitted to the Elder Teaching Council with the explicit request for them to have the DreamSmith Mark removed if they are found to have been derelict in their duties.


A DreamSmith who violates rules regarding the creation of formless items will be submitted for removal of the DreamSmith Mark. A DreamSmith losing the Mark due to formless item abuse will never be eligible to regain the Mark in the future.

Abuse of teaching the Art of Forge Talisman is subject to the standard teaching contract between teachers and the Elder Teaching Council.

Teaching Forge Talisman
Each DreamSmith may determine how they wish to teach the art and plateaus of Forge Talisman.

Teaching the Art itself, however, should minimally include an understanding of how to craft an item, what forms can be created, and the color pallet the student would be expected to utilize.

The Teacher will use common sense practices when plateauing the art of Forge Talisman. Any and all tasks are subject to review by the Elder Teaching Council and tasks which are found to be lacking will be handled by the Elders.
