Guilds of Realgar
The Guilds of Realgar are a collection of guilds and temples dedicated to realgar arsenic, a subset of the Guilds of Arsenic .
Realgar guilds have a lower admission and ordainment rate due to the sheer danger of realgar and the focus on blood magic within their doctrine. Blood poisoning and sepsis is common, but those who survive become immune to infections and poisons almost entirely.
They worship Khelekeras like the other guilds of Arsenic, in the form of Khelekera Aitra (Khelekeras the Poisoner). As such they work frequently with poisons and pest removal, as well as ceremonies involving ritual sacrifice.
In the practical sense many realgar magicians are experts at navigating noxious and poisonous terrain and make incredible scouts, so like their cousins in the Guilds of Orpiment they are often recruited to warlike tribes. They also can be good big game hunters, able to take down megafauna with poisoned spears.
Priests of Realgar often work with blessing, cleansing, and cursing blood. This gets them involved in illicit activities, but they are frequently recruited by the Guilds of Quartz to speed up death rites, oaths, and transfusions. They are often involved in creating Blood Bets and oaths.
