Conservators

A group of highly skilled artisans responsible for the maintenance, repair, and creation of artifacts and texts within the clan's care, ensuring their continued use and preservation.

Structure

• The Conservators are organized into specialized guilds, each focusing on a particular aspect of artifact maintenance or text preservation, such as metalworking, leatherworking, or scriptoria.
• Their guildhalls, located throughout the gnome settlements in the mountains, serve as both workshops and libraries, housing the most precious and valuable relics of the clan's care.
• The Conservators employ a strict system of apprenticeship, taking in promising young gnomes from all over the mountain communities to train them in their craft.
• They adhere to a strict code of conduct, known as the Tenets of Preservation, which governs their interactions with both each other and the artifacts in their care.

Culture

• They have developed unique techniques for restoring damaged artifacts and texts, drawing upon their deep understanding of the ley lines and the arcane energies that flow through the mountains.
• Their reputation for expertise and dedication extends beyond the borders of the gnome communities, with other races and organizations sometimes seeking their aid in preserving and repairing precious artifacts.
• The Conservators also serve as the stewards of a vast, interconnected library system, maintained by the Lorekeepers Gnome Clan, which stores knowledge and lore from all corners of Eldarion and beyond.
• At the heart of their work lies a profound respect for the ancient wisdom and power that lies within the ley lines, as well as a deep-seated belief in the importance of preserving that knowledge for future generations.
