Archer

Introduction
The Archer's Guild began life within the Trapper's League, a body existing to promote brotherhood between hunters. From its advent, the League decided where and when game could be taken in order to maintain peace with the elementals. In time, the hunters took to friendly competitions in bowmanship, and eventually the group split away to devote themselves to their weapon of choice. These were the founders of the Archer's Guild.

Gridanian archery itself emerged from a history of strife betwixt two traditions: Techniques of the longbow, beloved by the Elezen, and of the shortbows, developed by Miqo'te hunters. The Elezen sought to defend the forest, and clashed mightily with the Miqo'te, who poached on its creatures for their meat. The two ultimately reached an accord, and merged their archery techniques into a unique style not found anywhere else in the realm.
