Guilds

Guilds are organizations that accept and carry out requests for the community. They are usually comprised of members possessing unique abilities, able to hold their own and complete jobs even in dangerous situations. Although not all guilds abide by the law, a majority of them do; those who do are recognized and considered "official" by the Magistrate.

Types of Guilds
All guilds can be categorized into three distinct categories based on their standing and reputation with the Magistrate.

Sanctioned Guilds
Sanctioned guilds are guilds that have been officially recognized by the Magistrate. They're known and expected to carry out requests while abiding the laws of their local government, and they're encouraged to work with local law enforcement to help the community and maintain order. Sanctioned guilds receive more support from the Magistrate.

Notable sanctioned guilds include Lumiadare, Heavenly Mandate and Ymir.

Unsanctioned Guilds
Unsanctioned guilds are guilds that have yet to be officially recognized by the Magistrate. They may be relatively new or small guilds, or have yet to show a particularly lawful approach in handling requests, thus failing to gain the Magistrate's approval.

Notable unsanctioned guilds include Takemikazuchi and Qymera.

Dark Guilds
Dark guilds are guilds that have been condemned by the Magistrate for their unlawful behavior and vile practices, and is considered a criminal organization. Many dark guilds are blacklisted by governments, and guilds and/or individuals with the necessary skills are encouraged to apprehend members of dark guilds where the chance arises.

A notable dark guild is Rebirth.
