For centuries, the term "guild" was used interchangeably with "class." Organizations centred around common skills and ideals, guilds were led by a Guildmaster and his or her appointed secretaries. In the year 399 AF, however, guilds became officially obsolete as the last of these organizations underwent conversion to houses.
