Welcome to The Windworn Company
Identity
“Named for their ever-moving lifestyle, the Company travels wherever the wind takes them.”
A band of weary souls and wanderers, the Windworn Company moves like the wind itself—restless, unbound, and carrying the dust of distant lands wherever they go. Formed by those who’ve survived hard journeys and scarred battles, the Company offers no allegiance to any one city or kingdom. Instead, they are loyal to the roads they travel and the people they protect along the way. They specialize in guarding trade routes, guiding lost travelers, and fending off threats that stalk the forgotten corners of Azeroth. Drifting from one village to the next, the Windworn often arrive as if on the breeze itself, offering their services before disappearing just as quietly.
Every member of the Windworn carries a keepsake —a memento of an old friend, a lost family member, or a former comrade. These tokens are a symbol of the lives they’ve touched and the allies they’ve left behind. While their gear may be worn and their armor patched, each item has its story and each person their purpose. The Windworn are not sentimental, but they honor those who came before them, creating a shared tapestry of memories that binds them as a family, even without blood ties.
To outsiders, the Windworn Company might appear as little more than a ragged band of mercenaries. But to those who’ve shared in their fires and traveled the same rugged paths, they are protectors, wardens of forgotten lands, and silent witnesses to the world’s fringes. They make a living by facing dangers no one else will and taking on jobs that are too bleak or too thankless for others. Though rarely welcomed with fanfare, their presence on the road has saved countless lives, and their quiet departure often leaves behind a sense of safety, even if the only thanks they ever receive is a grateful nod or a warm meal.
Wandering where the wind or the coin calls, the Windworn are bound by no oath but their own, carried forward by a simple creed: to honor the past, protect the present, and face whatever comes next with grit and silent resolve.
Code of the Windworn
The Company has a few unwritten rules they live by, which help guide them through their morally ambiguous, nomadic lifestyle.
• The Wind is our Home :
The Windworn are loyal to each other, not to any land or ruler. This freedom keeps them from being tied to one place or cause for too long, making them true wanderers.
• We honor the Lost : Members keep a token from a lost friend, ally, or family member as a reminder of those who have come and gone. These keepsakes are treasured, as they connect the living to the dead.
• Every Contract Earned : They don’t do charity, but they don’t exploit those in need either. They earn their keep with honest work, charging fair rates for protection and aid.
• We Leave No Worn Soul Behind : When a member dies, their keepsake is taken by a fellow company member and added to the guild’s keepsake collection, with a story recorded to honor their life. It’s a silent vow that the Windworn will carry on their memory.
