Having had several unsuccessful attempts to establish ringrunning groups only to see them flake away or die, mainly due to the PCs' other goals or difference in timezones, I am exploring creating a closer-knit and coherent ringrunning group using the infrastructure of a guild of Tickertown, with plunder and large-scale trade between the rings as the raison d'etre, rivaling the established trading companies in deep rings and ruthlessly pushing its goals and favorable policies thanks to the guild position.

To maintain the mystique and secrets of ringrunning and to avoid the curse to befall the guild, the new members will be expected to advance through the puzzle rings on their own, with passive support from the incumbents in some of the battles, until everyone will have reached the same ring. This will be elaborated through the Delvers' Guild IC code of conduct.

Race: Any except half-orc
Alignment: Non-chaotic
Deity: Any except Tchun
Classes: Any except druid, necromancer or infernalist (the guild will be keen to maintain its reputation and ability to operate unhindered)

Timezones: European evenings to US evenings, times for key challenges to be agreed through the Discord channel
