Verdant Guild

The wilderness is the foundation of all life. The wild places have existed for eons, and should continue to flourish for untold ages. Without the resources of the wilderness, civilization itself is doomed. Therefore, the wilderness must be preserved from the forces of civilization, evil, and destruction.

The Guild strives to preserve the Beastlands and all wild places in danger. The Wylders don't propose to burn down all the burgs and head back to the caves; they merely wish to avoid the elimination of wild areas and wildlife throughout the planes. As nature is balanced, so should civilization and progress be balanced with a healthy respect for the wilderness and all things natural. Members of the Verdant Guild strive to seek this balance and never allow the callous destruction of natural beauty. All members of the sect wear some sort of animal mask as a badge of office and a sign of their reverence for nature.

The sect makes the Beastlands its home, though members can be found on any good plane. Members visit other planes and prime-material worlds from time to time, watching over the wild areas.

The Signers, Sensates, and Ciphers get along well with the Wylders, but the nihilistic and self-serving poses of the Doomguard, the Dustmen, and the Fated go against the sect's grain.
