The Mercenary's Guild: Walk softly and carry a honking huge stick
The Order of the Club is an organization dedicated to making money for its members. How? We kill things for you. Or get things for you. Or, well, pretty much anything for money. Well, except that. Or that.
(What can we do? See below)

Rent a Sword (or Axe, or Lance, or Bow, or...)
Need the Gorgon or Giant weakened so you can kill it yourself? Want to walk through the Northwest Tunnels without having to battle Huge Mutant Rocs? Do you need the Mountain Trail cleared so you can become a Wizard? Are you tired of killing Adolescent Tortoises yourself to collect all those ninja weapons? If so, simply hire a member (or three) of the Order of the Club!
Possible Jobs
Here's some ideas of things you can hire one or more of us for. Note that this is not a full list - feel free to come up with your own. We're willing to do most anything that won't get us into trouble with The Great Lords.
Killing Things: The Order specializes in the slaughtering of poor defenseless giant beasties. Want the Mountain Trail cleared in order to get Huge reptiles? Want the Caverns to be demon-free? Hire us, and we'll do all the slaughtering for you! Ever run out of arrows or quarrels and have nothing left to finish a critter off with? Hire us - we'll finish it for you!
Almost Killing Things: Our greed is far greater than our love of the hunt. We're more than happy to weaken a big beastie (like the Giant or Kraken) so you can finish it off yourself.
Bodyguard Duty: So you want to get from point A to point B, but you don't want to spend the AP or risk the damage from facing monsters? One or more of our representatives will be more than happy to clear a path for you. For a price, of course.
Finding Things: Looking for a copy of You Spin Me Round, but don't want to spend all your mana killing Morpheus over and over? Trying to get those damned Blue Flowers? We'll do the hunting for you!
Finding Things To Kill: Pinatas got you down? The elusive Esquilax evading your final spotted tick mark? Whale evading your kill list for the Military Service quests? We'll find it for you! (And even summon you, if needed!)
General tasks (like feeding a pet) will cost 30 GP/AP. Special jobs may vary, especially if they have never been undertaken before. The latter can be negotiated.

Rules for Mercenaries
- Be active. If you're going to be inactive for a while, either go to Holiday Island (and make sure you're summonable) or leave the guild. We'll be happy to invite you back when you come back to the game.
- Any contract that would bring the wrath of the Great Lords (or the cities populace in general) down on the guild is strictly forbidden. If it'd get you alone in trouble, have fun.
- If you want to use a Treasury Card, you must have full insurance (so it can't fall into others' hands).
- Don't take on contracts for an alt (See: "Bring down the wrath of the Great Lords", above)
