<p>The Joybringers act as the official Marcandrian clergy for Callera. She is a goddess of artistry, dance, passion and revelry, with the message that one should seek a fulfilling life, and to find a joyous life through passions and artistry.

<p>The Joybringers are a loose organization, one in which each temple act independently, keeping only the minimum organizational hierarchy necessary to function. The Joybringers tend to be heavily involved in Marcandrian festivities and revelry, and are often the ones who both plan, organize, and run public events in Marcandria; be that on their own accord or on behalf of either nobles or other influential entities. The Joynringers are passionate and free spirited individuals, all deeply engulfed in artistry, who seek to both teach and show the people how to achieve a fulfilling life, will with ones joys and passions.</p> <p>The Joybringers are a loose organization, one in which each temple act independently, keeping only the minimum organizational hierarchy necessary to function.

<p>The Joy</p> <p>The Joybringers are most present in the larger population centers in Marcandria, tending to stay in areas with a lot of culture and opportunities to engage with the people. Their massive temples often stand among the most exquisite and luxurious buildings in the city they're in. The Joybringers do have some presence in the more rural regions of Marcandria as well, though tend to only consist of one or a few individuals whose decided to put the inhabitants there “under their wings”.</p>
<p>The Joybringers tend to avoid bickering or politics between nobles or other factions. So long as neither side seeks to hamper the Joybringers endeavors, they see little reason to get involved. Rather, they see staying out of such conflict as a way to avoid alienating either side, and as a way to potentially act as a bridge for each side to. They tend to have little they can offer by themselves if drawn into conflic. However, due to their charismatic nature and deep involvement in both the populace and leadership, they can have a lot of influence when it comes to swaying public opinion.</p>

<p>The Meranzeum is the largest religious organization in <a href="https://wiki.strixhab.net/HBW/Eirus/Marcandria/marcandrian-culture">Marcandria</a>, as well as being one of — if not the — most influential faction in Marcandria is a whole. It is dedicated to and worships the Marcandrian goddess <a href="https://wiki.strixhab.net/HBW/Eirus/Marcandria/Religion">Meranzi</a>, who represents <strong>liberty, knowledge, exceptionalism, commerce, and trade</strong>. Commerce and trade is seen as of particular importance to <a href="https://wiki.strixhab.net/HBW/Eirus/Marcandria/Religion">Meranzi</a>, which means it is also of particular importance to the Meranzeum.&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Meranzeum is a truly massive organization with incredible wealth. Their wealth and the fact that they are the official representatives and clergy to the most widely worshipped goddess in Marcandria gives them a massive influence over the Marcandrian population. The organization is involved in several aspects of Marcandrian society and will always have numerous ventures and endeavors underway. They operate as a massive trade enterprise; a bank; a library; an educational institution; a research facility; and most importantly an investor into Marcandrian society and its people. All of these efforts are perhaps best understood when viewing the Meranzeum as a religiously motivated enterprise who seeks to spread the influence of their goddess Meranzi — and who seek to propel Marcandrian society toward Meranzi's promised <strong>golden prosperous future</strong>, in which all Marcandrians may prosper and live in happiness.</p>
<p>The Meranzeum is very noticeable actor in the larger settlements of Marcandrian society, and they are not shy about displaying their wealth. Their temple compounds are easily recognizable for both their sheer size and level of luxury and intricacy that has gone into their construction. The members of the Meranzeum are among the most splendidly dressed in Marcandria, with high-ranking members even rivalling the nobility. The organization holds deep meritocratic views, and is thus an ardently neutral actor who rarely get involved in the bickering between other factions, nobles, merchants, or the likes. The only exceptions would be if one side go against the values and goals of Meranzi or the Meranzeum. Otherwise, they hold the view that whoever ends up on top do so due to superior skill, dedication, resourcefulness, and intellect, and thus justly deserve to win.</p>
