The Merchants of the Crown were founded from the previously Magi-classed Guild of the Sorcerers. Drazik Lokelinde (born 12 Lupar, 221 AF), originally a prominent Druid, left the forestal Guild to found the Sorcerers after becoming a citizen of Hashan.
Today, the Merchants of the Crown aim to unite the merchants of Achaea under one banner. Weaving together the paths of Education, Combat, and Economics, the House offers three unique spheres of focus: Educators, Guardians and Merchants. Each path offers training through which any member can seize and wield opportunities for success. The Merchants achieve strength by working together and respecting each other's differences at all times. Each member is therefore bound by a code of honour, one that emphasises loyalty, integrity, and dedication to unity through mutual respect.
Since the Merchants believe that laziness promotes neither growth nor personal success, it is strongly discouraged. Upon entering the doors of the Citadel of Prosperity (the House estate of the Merchants, formerly known as the Tower of Elements), all new members must take a pledge of intention towards completing initial educational instruction.
