 The Craftsmen |
Also known as the Craftsmen, Avora hold a great deal of responsibility in regards to the stability of the city. This caste of upperclassmen are recognized for their skills in falconry, hunting, glasswork, smithing, medicine, and masonry, among other things. They fill a niche that the less skilled or knowledgeable (or capable) cannot, providing necessary services to the overall maintenance of Wind Reach. They are nearly as respected as Endal and have similar privileges to the eagle riders, though not separate dwellings. However, their moral sense can be somewhat negligent and abuse of the lower castes from Avora is very common.
Like Endal, there are ranks within the Avora Caste, usually spread throughout a workplace. A Master will oversee all within his field and can be easily identified. A Master is only chosen when they have truly mastered their field and have proven their value through the years. The Avora beneath a master, and Chiet and Dek, will always answer to the Master of their workforce; however, all within the caste must defer to the Valintars wishes.
The Masters
A Master Craftsmen is a truly respectable individual. They have demonstrated over the years their ability within their selected craft and have even branched into related skills, honing their chosen job even further by the mastery of more. They are intelligent and versatile men and women who have worked hard through the years and earned the trust and respect of those within their jurisdiction. They typically manage their craft well and may or may not be easy to approach. Masters can be identified by the golden circlet around the Badge they wear, identifying their Avora role and Master status.
The Masters also act as the voice of the Avora; when material is needed or workers short, it is they who speak with the Valintar and assist in scouting for potential craftsmen.
The Mentors
Mentors is a unified name for any Avora who has an apprentice. While not required of all jobs, Mentors teach new recruits the lay of the land in their field and help hone the skills they had shown promise in. They have a standard badge for their craft. Any non-apprentice Avora may be a Mentor.
Apprentice
The fresh faces of their craft, Apprentices are just barely a step above Chiet and Dek in terms of status within the Avora ranks. They enjoy the same freedoms as others in the caste, but are often used as "extra hands" during the first few seasons of their training until they demonstrate their value to the craft. Once they have, their Mentor will begin providing more serious lessons that help them elevate out of Apprenticeship. Apprentices are always identified with a single copper line through the badge of their craft, telling others that they are new to the position and have not yet earned the full freedoms of those within the ranks who have more experience.
