Warriors- The Warrior's Guild hires a large number of people at any time. They are known as some of the best swordsmen and martial artists in the universe
Streamer- The Streamer's Conven is much more secretive than any of the other Guilds. Over the Years, Streamers have been known by many different mythological names, particularly Black Mages and Summoners. Streamers channel the endless Ether Stream and combine it with their own spirit energy to create devistating power, or in the case of Beast Streamers, A fearsome beast to do their bidding, but at a cost. Under almost every known case, a Streamer has lost his mind from Ether use.
Priest/Priestess- The Holy Order of Priests has long opposed the Streamers'. Many times known as White Mages, Priests channel their own spiritual energy into powerful healing magic. Not to say they can't deal great damage too, Most of the men are trained as warrior Monks, and the women have a habit of carrying giant mallets.
Thieves- No one's really certain on how the Thieves Guild, which many call the Black Syndicate, rose to a position of power. It is known though, that the thieves contain more skills than just robbery. Many actually work as assassins as well, stealing life as well as objects. It's also said that for the right price, you can hire anyone in the thieves guild to steal anything you wish, once again, for the right price. Assuming you can find one of their outposts.
Gunslingers- The Gunslingers have had a long hard road. They are constantly clashing with the Warriors. They are well known for the speed and accuracy with which they wield their old fashioned weapons. Most Gunslingers use revolvers or closer to modern style pistols, but there are a few that are said to use single hand rifles and shotguns.Gunslingers are heaver roamers than other groups, so they don't really have much of a guild, but they do have a sort set of High Council's that constantly communicate with each-other, which gives them their seat of power in the galaxy.
Scourge- Called different names in different parts of the Galaxy, the Scourge is a "Black Box" sort of lifeform. Simply put, nobody knows exactly what they are. What IS known is that Streamers seem to be generally the only beings that can affect them.
Synth/Synthans- Synthetic Humans, Synths have only just begun to enter the world as living people, and not just things. Despite the name, Synths contain no mechanical parts, though they occasionally require special matenance, as synthetic tissue tends to deteriorate faster than organic
Dampir- The closest race found to the mythical Vampire. A Dampir wields immense strength and seems to contain a slight telepathic power, they cannot read minds, as in mythical tales, but they do seem to be able to move objects and even people with an immense unseen force. Dampir must gain nourishment from blood, humanoid blood seeming to be their favorite, but they do seem to be able to consume certain dark meats, rare or medium rare steak being most common. Dampir were hunted for a long time, as they slaughtered humans and animals without a though more than finding food, but that seems to have calmed down with the creation of the AB Packs.
Alchemist- A sort of rising group, Alchemists can alter any tangible object to another tangible object of similar size and properties through a scientific use of circles and the Ether. Alchemists can use their abilities on humans to an extent; reconfiguring the deceased to help with identifications, re-attaching limbs, hair growth, etc. etc. But for them it is impossible to regenerate life, They could easily create a body, but they have no way to attach a soul to it, or so it would seem.
Chemist- An important contributor to Science, Chemist' can make chemical mixtures for just about anything, not to mention analyze unknown to discover it's chemical secrets.
Astronomer- The most mocked scientific field in history, Astronomers have been the biggest contributors to space travel there is. Astronomers study the aspects of space, attempting to find the secrets it holds. It has been said that due to their long studies Astronomers are so in depth with the stars and everything else that in times of need an Astronomer can actually manipulate certain aspects of space for a moment of time
Geomancer- Geomancers are, despite popular belief, Scientists. The original name for these people were Geologists, but Geology seems to have ended when the Geologists discovered an ancient artifact, which they dubbed the Gaia Heart, that whoever held it could control the very aspects of the world around them. They copied several strange symbols on the artifact, and soon learned that it was those symbols that granted them the power. There are only 70 Geomancers in the galaxy at this time, and they are constantly searching for new artifacts to increase their numbers, as it appears these artifacts can only distribute enough energy for ten people at a time.
