You are part of the prestigious Arcane Courier Service, a neutral organization known across the realms for its unmatched dedication to delivering messages, packages, and secrets safely to their destinations. Whether it’s a simple letter between loved ones or a decree from kings and queens, the Arcane Couriers ensure that the flow of communication remains unbroken, even across the most dangerous territories.

As a courier, you were trained in the magical arts of the School of Scribes, learning to create arcane seals, scribe messages, navigate treacherous lands, and safeguard your deliveries from harm. Your duty requires unwavering discipline and a strong moral compass, for the contents of your satchel are not yours to know, only yours to protect and deliver.

The Arcane Courier Service operates with the highest integrity, fostering trust across kingdoms, merchant guilds, and noble houses. You carry the weight of that trust with every delivery, knowing that failure is not merely a mistake but a stain upon the honor of your order.

For you, the road is home, the satchel is your companion, and every delivery is a promise waiting to be fulfilled.
