The Marvelous Mechanics
Nisopen, the titular Marvelous Mechanic, originally started by peddling poor excuses of tinctures. Now their Guild is known all throughout the Empire as a hub for innovations.
Structure
The Guild is separated into a number of smaller groups within the overall structure. The Guild Master is elected by representatives of each team within the Guild itself. Each group comes from different Towns, Villages, and Cities, with Cities possibly having multiple members and representatives.
Culture
The joining process for the Guild is meant to offer an insight into how the system will work upon acceptance. Craftsmen wishing to join must pay a fee, have a letter of skill, have at least a Lower Noble vouch for their consistency and character, and submit an invention for inspection. The resulting creation need not be the best or most beautiful of designs, but it does need to have a purpose.
Public Agenda
The Marvelous Mechanics intentions are to create items to make life easier. Their original creations help pioneer the way forward for the common citizen, while trying to create things to assist researchers.
History
During the early days of the Second Age, short as it was, offered the perfect opportunity for young upstart type Arcane Engineers to find a foothold in the growing world. Nisopen was one such individual, who founded the Guild with a group of other like minded inventors and smiths. The resulting years saw the creation of the Personal Quill, the Personal Journal, the Personal Chest, and eventually the use of other denotations aside from "Personal". Their work in assisting the Empires Military ranks and designing certain things for the Higher Nobility explicitly drove the Guild into higher esteem after only a short while.
