The Joybringers are devoted worshippers of Lady Firehair, and as such, hold a firm belief in her tenants. They are very outspoken in their belief that all lives should be filled with beauty, love, and passion; and that life should be experienced full off happiness and joy. They wish to exult in life, and have an urge to spread and share the joyous wonders of life with the rest of society. They hold the view that you can only reach the epitome of happiness, joy, and love, if you are surrounded by it; and for that to happen, all around you must also be filled with happiness, joy, and love. This is why the Joybringers always seek to create festivities and events for the populace to partake in, and why they wish to be involved in the planning of events initiated by others.
They have a deep respect and desire for those who try following their heart or passion. They will be ones who will nudge a overstricken youth into making their move, or encourage an artist to create what their heart tells them. They believe, and preach, that one should learn to let go of one's worries and regrets, and not be afraid to leap brazenly towards their dreams. A confession of love never made will always be worse than a one made but rejected. Art made to reflect your own soul will always bring more fulfillment than that made to please others. One should follow what one's own heart desires, without worry of what others will think of it.
-The Joybringers believe that to be happy, you must first and foremost love who you are. You should always seek to become who you want to be. This is why they teach the art of personal presentation and self-expression, guiding individuals in discovering their inner beauty and expressing it outwardly through grooming, attire, personal styling, and etiquette. This view can also make the Joybringers appear vain, and they can have a hard time understanding those who do not use their appearance to reflect who they are.
-The Joybringers are all artists in some form. They believe that if you feel lost, or are burdened with hardships you do not know how to solve, then you can find answers through art. Be it art you make yourself, or art by others that you experience--art is something where you can lose yourself, and in doing so let go off your worries and hardships, and find your true self again in. Engulfing yourself in art, be it paintings, sculptures, music, dance, theatre, or otherwise, will put your soul free, so that you may truly experience the greatness and wonders that is life.
-The Joybringers are very active when it comes to collecting and protecting art and other things they find beautiful. What the Joybringers' practices, and the services they provide, also very much fall under luxury services and activities. Both they, and others who follow Lady Firehair's, can have a hard time distinguishing between indulging in luxury…

Quote: "Art enables us to find ourselves and lose ourselves at the same time. It is the journey of a free soul. Use it to find meaning in your life, to move past hardship. Let it heal you. Let it show you the greatness and wonders of life."

They champion the philosophy that happiness spreads through shared experiences. Thus, they are proactive in organizing and participating in public festivities and cultural events, aiming to saturate society with the joyous wonders of life. Their mission is to envelop everyone in an atmosphere of unbridled joy and love, fostering a communal spirit of happiness.

They encourage individuals to act on their passions, whether it’s a youth mustering the courage to declare love, or an artist creating works that are true to their soul.
