'''Guilds''' are organizations established when sufficient members (10 by default in d_init.txt) of your [[fortress]] practice the same [[profession]], or professions in the same category. Shortly after establishment, the guild will petition for the construction of a [[guildhall]], where its members will socialize and hold [[skill]] demonstrations, slowly training them as if they were a [[military]] [[squad]] under training orders. The name of a guild and its associated guildhall will reflect the profession of the guild. For example "The Guild of Oiling", a Metalsmith guild with a guildhall named "The Cave of Copper". <!-- Also observed: "The Autumnal Guild", a Ranger guild with a guildhall named "The Grove of Deer. -->

'''Guilds''' are organizations established when enough members of your [[fortress]] practice the same [[profession]], or professions in the same category. The required number of members defaults to 10, but this can be changed in the [[Difficulty#Guilds|difficulty]] settings. Allowing many dwarves to do the same [[labor]]s can lead to them learning enough of that skill to form a guild, as can migrants arriving with skills in the same category. Dwarves with a profession with its own guild and one for the more general category will be members of both guilds.

Guildhalls work similarly to [[barracks]] and [[tavern]]s, by providing skill training and some degree of socialization. A guildhall requires 2000 (by default) and Grand Guildhall at 10000 zone wealth to be considered established. A guild with a guildhall was observed establishing connections with other guilds, but with an as of yet unknown effect. If a guildhall petition has been accepted but has not been built after one year, the agreement to establish a guildhall will be abandoned.

Shortly after establishment, the guild will petition for the construction of a guildhall, where its members will socialize and hold [[skill]] demonstrations, slowly training them in the skill. However, any guildhall can be built at any time, and even if a guild is not established, any one with the right skill can still hold public demonstrations for idlers; this is useful for having dwarves teach each other [[strange_mood|desirable]] skills. If a guild grows to enough members (25 by default, but can also be changed), they will petition for a Grand guildhall.

Typically, a guild for a general profession category, such as fisherdwarves, farmers, or metalsmiths will be founded first, though if enough dwarves of a specific profession such as [[furnace operator]] or [[weaponsmith]] are in a fortress, a guild for that specific profession will be founded as well as the more general guild. Dwarves with a profession with its own guild and one for the more general category will be members of both guilds.

A guildhall requires a certain [[Zone#Quality and value|zone value]] to be considered established, as [[appraiser|appraised]] by the fortress' [[broker]]; the default values are 2000☼, and 10,000☼ for a grand guildhall, but these can be changed in the [[Difficulty#Guilds|difficulty]] settings. Accepting either petition but failing deliver one with enough value, will cause negative thoughts for the guild members after a year.

Guilds are formed in world generation by civilizations that value [[Personality_trait#CRAFTSMANSHIP|craftsmanship]], such as Dwarves and Humans. These guilds will have various historical figures take up positions in them, as well as build themselves guildhalls in settlements. These guilds have also been observed to occasionally help construct monasteries for religious groups. There are always four possible positions in the generated guilds: A Leader (dean/doyer, handles negotiations), an Alderman (manages work orders), a Steward (handles trade) and a Clerk/[[Recordkeeper]]. These positions are not yet available within fortress mode, and thus guilds made in fortresses don't get these.

This article is about the current version of DF.
Note that some content may still need to be updated.

Guilds are organizations established when enough members of your fortress practice the same profession, or professions in the same category. The required number of members defaults to 10, but this can be changed in the difficulty settings. Allowing many dwarves to do the same labors can lead to them learning enough of that skill to form a guild, as can migrants arriving with skills in the same category. Dwarves with a profession with its own guild and one for the more general category will be members of both guilds.

The name of a guild and its associated guildhall will reflect the profession of the guild, for example "The Guild of Oiling", a Metalsmith guild with a guildhall named "The Cave of Copper", or "The Autumnal Guild", a Ranger guild with a guildhall named "The Grove of Deer".

Guildhall[edit]

Main article: Guildhall

Shortly after establishment, the guild will petition for the construction of a guildhall, where its members will socialize and hold skill demonstrations, slowly training them in the skill. However, any guildhall can be built at any time, and even if a guild is not established, any one with the right skill can still hold public demonstrations for idlers; this is useful for having dwarves teach each other desirable skills. If a guild grows to enough members (25 by default, but can also be changed), they will petition for a Grand guildhall.

A guildhall requires a certain zone value to be considered established, as appraised by the fortress' broker; the default values are 2000☼, and 10,000☼ for a grand guildhall, but these can be changed in the difficulty settings. Accepting either petition but failing deliver one with enough value, will cause negative thoughts for the guild members after a year.

List of guilds[edit]

This is a list of guildhalls that you can select when adding a new location (e.g. Ui z.pngz -> set a zone -> Ui location add.png -> "New guildhall" -> choose a guild type). General guilds are in bold, followed by specific guilds they include.

Guilds in World Generation[edit]

Guilds are formed in world generation, by civilizations that value craftsmanship, such as dwarves and humans. These guilds will have various historical figures take up positions in them, as well as build themselves guildhalls in settlements, and have also been observed to occasionally help construct monasteries for religious groups. There are always four possible positions in the generated guilds: A Leader (dean/doyer, handles negotiations), an Alderman (manages work orders), a Steward (handles trade) and a Clerk/Record keeper. These positions are not yet available within fortress mode, and thus, guilds made in fortresses don't get them.
