The Taiscéalaithe Detachment
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀"To charter a brighter, more united Warren"




There is a saying that reverberates within the walls of a grand castle turned seemingly exhaustive library deep within the confines of the Bastion; "You are only as knowledgeable as you dedicate yourself to be"... Though perhaps echoed to those whom use the library's services, from the common man or woman only seeking a book to pass a dark night with to officials of the Queensland seeking aid in their endeavours through whatever knowledge they see appropriate for it by those who service the building, no less the enigmatic Oracle who watches over it, that is not to communicate that the Library itself is omitted from the same statement they utter onto others.

To become as much of a bastion of knowledge and learning as it has, the Library and it's influence is not only felt within Bastion... Nor only within Chail nor the Summer Coast or Winter Grove and the Queensland in it's entirety, but perhaps across the Warren. To those whom dedicate themselves to travel the lands, document it's happenings, charter maps and learn about the many, many peoples that call Caer Sidi home under the watchful gaze of a magnanimous library and it's strange overseer, they call themselves the Taiscéalaithe Detachment.






The Taiscéalaithe Detachment's purpose is straightforward, but no less an arduous nor important one. Their efforts make them one of the largest groups within the entire Warren which dedicate their efforts to learning about practically everything and anything there is to know about Caer Sidi, a task which has only grown more necessary throughout the advent of dark days ahead... In as little words as possible; the Taiscéalaithe Detachment are researchers and travellers in equal measures.






Under the watch of the Oracle's knowing gaze, the Taiscéalaithe Detachment may indeed be a flexible, ever-changing group of peoples, whether in number or attribute; physical, mental or otherwise. Indeed, the composition of the Detachment has changed throughout the years on numerous occasion, however the current day sees the Taiscéalaithe Detachment "employ" a group of 148, perhaps more or less, and often split into smaller brackets when seen fit. Out of the 148 members active within the Detachment, the majority are Syvisan, with a smaller number of Sidhé; numbering two dozen or so. Other races are not commonly seen as members, perhaps a single Sprite, or a few Satyrs...

Though the Taiscéalaithe Detachment is managed and commanded by an "Overseer", his face is rarely seen by those the Detachment actively engage with. Rather, when out and about, each different group under the entire Detachment at any given time would be under the leadership of a "Chargehand", appointed by the aforementioned Overseer, which guides the specific bracket in it's objective and motions.






One can expect the members of the Taiscéalaithe Detachment to have with them an assortment of "things" to aid them in their travels, excluding mention of the more obvious such as clothes on their backs, food in their pockets and aboard loaded carts and an assortment of daggers, spears, staves, shields, bows, arrows and any other type of weapon, ones that every member of the Detachment are taught to use to at the very least a decent level.

⠀⠀⠀The Taiscéalaithe Detachment owns these items; as follows
  • [ 180 ] Horses
  • [ 90 ] Horse-drawn Carts

  • An innumerable number of books, from ones with blank pages to be used for notetaking, cartography, professional writing or the like, to specific texts regarding numerous factors, from the locations they would be visiting to ones that teach helpful techniques, and much more

  • [ 1 ] "Summoning" disc

  • A varying amount of Magical Reagent, depending on circumstance

  • A moderate selection of valuable goods, from coin to gold and gems, stored in strongboxes, purses, footlockers and the like
