Order of Customs Liaisons

Unwilling to attempt to compete with the NAC and the Brotherhood in New Esoria, the Order of Customs Liaisons, or OCL, followed the construction guilds to Floatum when they left New Esoria to rebuild the canal. Being small actually gave the OCL the advantage in this situation because they were able to move their headquarters much easier than either of the other two currently certified banking guilds would have been able to. This quick move, and the great interest rates they gave to other guilds during Floatum’s construction, helped cement their place in the economy of Floatum. Once the canal became usable, the bank branched out from just guild and personal loans into imports and exports. After Floatum became the second largest city for the Absit Settlers, the OCL started to print their own currency as well, imprinted with the image of the canal on the back of the coins. After their success in early Floatum and their continued growth, they are estimated to be about the same size as the Brotherhood of Honest Trade currently but plan to try and overtake them in the upcoming years.
