Glazer's Guild

The Glazer's Guild is a craft guild operating out of Romney in Betrayal at Krondor. Its members are referred to as Glazers.

Membership
One of the Glazier's local chief reeves is Mitchel Waylander.

For some time, a group of glazers near Silden has been petitioning for membership in the Guild. Their unruliness has so far resulted in a lack of sponsors, demonstrating the difficulty of gaining entry into the organization.

Conflict with the Riverpullers Guild
When the Riverpullers raised fees in Romney, the Glazer's and Dyer's Guilds refused to cooperate and contracted the splinter Guild of the Romney to bring in goods instead. The Riverpullers' violent response, including confiscating merchandise shipped without their guild and an incident in which three Glazers died when some of the splinter guild's rafts were burned, nearly set off a full-scale guild war.

Arguing that nobody had ever seen the royal charter outlining the exclusivity rights claimed by the Riverpullers, the craft guilds tried to break their blockade on Romney, but were unsuccessful until the King's men arrived from Bas-Tyra to support them. With mediation from the Duke of Romney, the guilds came to an uneasy truce, but Waylander and others closed off the main bridge to the city, allowing residents freedom of movement but restricting visitors to those with Guild seals as a means of keeping disfavored persons out.

Chapter 3
Mitchel Waylander is among those blocking the bridge to Romney. He explains the recent events to the party, but has no reliable way to arrange a meeting with the King's men and refuses to admit outsiders with no Glazer's Guild Seal, remarking that such seals are not easy to come by.
