Glassblowers' Guild
Built in a central location, beyond all the minor craft shops of the main road leading into and out of Egilrun, the Glassblower's Guild house is perhaps the most well-appointed structure in all of Egilrun. Given their affluence, they spared no expense to make a marvel of stained glass, veined marble, and bronze metalwork. The stained glass relief shows the history of Egilrun, from the time of the Pirate Kings, to the Shadow Beasts, and even into present day. Each pane was painstakingly crafted by a master of the art, and fitted to record yet another part of Scalvoran history.
Inside, a well-organized reception hall is set up, and beyond that, in the back halls of the complex, lay the work rooms of the master glassblowers and their apprentices. There, the heat of the crucibles and furnaces of their craft burn with great heat, warming the place even in the coldest winter days.
The Glassblower's guild is open to any of those who wish to do business with the guild, make commissions, or simply to tour the facility. But they brook little time-wasting, and will not entertain people who are only there for a field trip.
A large statue of Chamadarst is evident in the main reception hall, made entirely of blue glass.
Name: Muir-Cham-Pend
Race: Qi'ora
Age: 34th of Ymiden 613
Title: Glassblower Guild Master
Skills: Glassblowing - Grandmaster, Art - Master, Socialization - Master, Business management - Master, Science - Expert, Logistics - Expert
Sombran - Adored
Other Information: Master Muir-Cham-Pend is a devoted follower of Chamadarst, and holds the glass she works to be sacred. Yet for its sanctity, that doesn't preclude the glass from becoming a commodity, as such sentimental attachments are beneath those who bear Sombran. Still, while working her glass, or directing the work of others, there are none who are more composed, and taking pains to craft the mos intricate and meaningful works of art.
She has several apprentices on staff, and half as many other masters working beneath her. Every ounce of glass made on Scalvoris flows through the Glassblower's Hall. It's said that Muir-Cham-Pend was from Nashaki, and studied under the greatest glassblowers in the Tower of Glass.
She is a cynical negotiator, valuing and holding the work flowing from her Guild with the utmost esteem.
Rylik:
Created by: Rei'sari
Race: Sev'ryn
Birthday/Age: 37th Saun, 676
Title: Glassblower
Location: Rylik lives and works in Egilrun.
Skills: Art: Competent, Glassblowing: Expert, Polearms & Staves: Expert, Ranged Combat: Expert, Sculpting: Competent
Details: Rylik was born a slave. As a child and a teenager, he was big and strong for his age, so those traits were encouraged by his master. He was trained to become a bodyguard for a wealthy merchant, and he was very good at what he did. He was also used in fights that his master (and others) would bet on. His master was very good to him, and upon the merchant's death of old age, Rylik was freed.
Rylik did not know what he wanted to do with himself once he was freed, but he did know that he did not want to keep fighting for a living anymore. When he came to Egilrun, he fell in love with the beautiful glass that was made there, and he apprenticed himself to a master glassblower. Since then, he has gotten a job at the Glassblower's Guild. Even now, he believes that a fit body leads to a fit mind, and he keeps up with his weapon training in order to keep his body fit. These trials he keeps his body fit partly because it helps him with his work as a glassblower.
Rylik has a charm about him that makes it easy to like him. He is always happy to talk to his craft to anyone who will listen. He is even happier to learn new glassblowing techniques and to pass on what he knows already to someone who shares his love of the craft if they are also a part of the Glassblower's Guild.
Saiyu:
Created by: Rei'sari
Race: Sev'ryn
Birthday/Age: 123rd Vhalar, 698
Title: Glassblower, Translator
Location: Egilrun
Skills: Glassblowing: Competent, Linguistics: Expert, Socialization: Expert, Storytelling: Expert
Details: Saiyu is Rylik's oldest daughter. She and Marin are very close, but they are total opposites in many ways. Where Marin is shy, Saiyu loves to be around people. Where Marin is very creative when it comes to making glass jewelry, Saiyu does not have the creativity needed to make beautiful things. Although she is decent at making glass, her work is more suited to the type of items that are used every day rather than works or art. Her creativity has taken another path; that of being able to tell a good story.
When she was younger, she went to the Scalvoris University to study linguistics. But while she picked up languages quickly, and enjoyed the study of linguistics, she did not enjoy the competitive natures of many of her fellow academics. So after a few arcs, she went home to Egilrun and got a job at the Glassblower's Guild like the rest of her family. She makes glass, but she is also able to act as a translator for some of the foreign merchants who come looking to buy Egilrun glass to sell back in their own lands. Saiyu is fluent in Common, and Scalveen. She is conversational in Ancient Language, Rakahi, and Xanthea.

Details: Hassen is Rylik's older brother, and one of his closest friends. He was owned by the same merchant that owned Rylik, but his skills lay in other directions. Where his brother was strong physically, and skilled in fighting techniques, Hassen's strength lay in his intelligence and keen observation skills. He was trained as an alchemist, and several of the things he made were sold at his master's shop.
Once he was freed, Hassen began using the alchemy that he loved in combination with glassblowing in order to create one of a kind pieces for the Guild to sell. These trials, he uses his alchemy with making glass mostly, but he will experiment with other things in his free time.
Hassen works at the Glassblower's Guild.

Details: Marin is Rylik's beloved daughter, and she admires him deeply. She is much like him in many ways; especially her love for beauty, and her beliefs that a strong body leads to a strong mind. But she has a softer side to her. She is a very kind, gentle girl who wants everyone that she cares about to be happy. She can be shy around strangers, but she is very loyal to anyone she considers a friend. Marin loves children and animals.
Marin works at the Glassblower's Guild like her father does. She has a deep love of needlecraft that is second only to her love of making beautiful things. When she needs inspiration for the jewelry that she makes, she will often do some embroidery, and look through embroidery patterns for ideas.
