//FOR REFERENCE
+The Joybringers are typically eccentric and outgoing individuals, known for their highly expressive and dramatic mannerisms. Their whimsical nature and occasional over-the-top behavior can sometimes come across as pompous. This exuberance is a reflection of their commitment to living and sharing Lady Firehair's teachings with every fiber of their being. While all Joybringers engage in religious rites, only a subset possesses actual divine gifts.
+Members come from various facets of Marcandrian society, though most common are bards, artists, musicians, and performers who continue their creative pursuits within the organization. Most Joybringers hail from the middle to upper classes, as their activities often revolve around leisure and luxury—elements less accessible to the lower classes due to financial and time constraints. Located predominantly in affluent areas, Joybringer temples are less accessible to lower-class citizens, though these individuals are nonetheless welcome to join. The organization values alignment with Lady Firehair's tenets and the strength of character over socioeconomic status.
+All Joybringers are artists, engaging in disciplines such as painting, singing, sculpturing, poetry, and theater. They serve as organizers, mentors, and guides in all things related to artistry and revelry. Nobility frequently employs Joybringers to educate their children in etiquette and the arts, helping them refine their skills. Many individuals burdened by guilt or tragedy also seek solace with the Joybringers, hoping to rediscover their zest for life. It is not uncommon for those who have found renewal through the Joybringers' support to join their ranks permanently. Others join for more hedonistic reasons, seeking to live the most euphoric and joyous life possible.
+Membership in the Joybringers can be quite fluid, with members often stepping down from their duties to pursue personal passion projects. Some may embark on journeys in pursuit of passion and never return to the temple. As members age, some transition into more administrative roles, while others may gradually withdraw from active participation due to physical limitations, eventually retaining membership in name only.
+Joybringers typically don colorful and expressive versions of Marcandrian attire, with each member adding personal nuances and details to reflect their personality and enhance their innate beauty. As a result, each member’s attire is distinct, including their ritual garbs. Most Joybringers incorporate the symbol of Lady Firehair into their clothing as a sign of devotion and belonging. While the symbol is most commonly worn as a pendant, some members opt to weave it into other elements of their attire as ornamental features.
+Given their focus on aesthetics, Joybringers are exceptionally well-groomed and styled, projecting an image that underscores the importance they place on appearance and hygiene.
+However, aside from the presence of Lady Firehair’s symbol, there are no uniform characteristics to definitively identify a Joybringer. Their eccentric and outgoing personalities, combined with their uniquely expressive clothing, often serve as good indicators of their affiliation.
+The Greenwardens revere The Heartmender, cherishing her teachings on agriculture, empathy, perseverance, growth, healing, hope, and life. Known throughout Marcandria as wise healers and counselors, they are committed to lives of simplicity and service, finding profound fulfillment in aiding others.
Believing that fulfillment comes from the act of giving, the Greenwardens hold that assistance should be offered freely, without expectation of reward. This ethos is evident in their commitment to providing medical aid and healing at no charge, especially to those unable to afford care. Withholding aid when capable of helping is anathema to them, reflecting a profound disdain for selfishness. By extending their support universally, they strive to embody Fiori's nurturing spirit, ensuring no one is deprived of care due to lack of wealth or status.
