Qeynos is a benevolent city that has opened its arms to those willing to work toward the betterment of society and the cleansing of evil from the Shattered Lands of Norrath. Standing as a beacon of strength and nobility, good beings from across Norrath have sought shelter under the guidance of Antonia Bayle. Assisting the valiant ruler of the Kingdom of Qeynos is the Circle of Five, a council made up of the leaders of the five major factions of the city.

The Qeynos Guard - Military Guardians

The military forces of the Qeynos Guard are separated into four divisions whose commanders report to a single General. The four divisions are the City Guard, the Tower Guard, the Qeynos Navy, and the Outland Brigade. The General takes orders from the Circle of Five, the city's ruling council of government. Soldiers receive their training through the Steel Warriors or the Order of Life.

The Celestial Watch - Defenders of the Divine

The Celestial Watch is a religious society made up of disciples of the now absent gods of benevolence and light. This order honors all good deities and is an extremely spiritual congregation. Members watch the skies for the return of their gods, preaching diligently that the deities of old are not gone forever. The Celestial Watch is a selfless organization that ministers to the physical and spiritual well-being of the good people of the Kingdom of Qeynos. It sometimes undertakes missionary crusades to distant lands to spread the word of the righteous.

The Concordium - Masters of the Arcane

The Concordium is a benevolent society of mages dedicated to spreading the positive influence of the arcane arts throughout Norrath. Its members love to entertain the people of Qeynos, and have been known to tour the lands giving demonstrations of their abilities. While embracing the lighter side of magic, they are extremely potent mages capable of wielding immensely destructive powers. The Concordium's mandate is to acquire all arcane knowledge lost in the Shattered Lands. Should they fail to do so, it will surely fall into the hands of evil.

The Tunarian Alliance - The Silent Sentinels

The Tunarian Alliance represents the unification of druidic, Scout, and woodsman organizations from across the Shattered Lands. Its members follow the Laws of Tunare-principles based on the teachings of the goddess of Growth. Members of the Alliance are defenders of the woodlands, often performing outland patrols beyond the edges of civilization. Their mastery of stealth and extensive ventures into the dangerous outskirts of the known world have made them skilled agents of espionage-silent watchers in the shadows.

The Ironforge Exchange - Chiefs of Commerce

The Ironforge Exchange is comprised of the artisans and merchants who own shops within the city of Qeynos. The leader of the Ironforge Exchange is a member of the Circle of Five, and is reported to by the trade masters of the port district and the farmlands. The merchants of Qeynos are always quick to lend a helping hand with any task that benefits the realm or its people. They often work together with the other factions in Qeynos, and have even been known to take a financial loss if doing so benefits the greater good. No amount of profit is worth more than the prosperity of all Antonicans
