However, it should
probably not be a truly planet-wide organization (they will need some elbow
room to expand further ...).

I'm never in favour of saying that all such-and-such creatures are connected to so-and-so. I like a fair amount of leeway in everything so you can introduce other variants.

Never really meant to say either of these would be all inclusive of the shared world.

For the Guild to function in the Green the way I intended it, the Guilders would have to come in from an outside source though. The Green would just be at the tips of their fingers. Guilders could be potentially in conflict with the corsairs possibly drawing the people of the Green into their conflicts.
The guild really grew up out of necessity and through role-playing in my old world and are very handy when it comes to adventure writing as they generally have gold and are in need of mercenaries or even more often simply hated by players just because they are the establishment; kind of like the Lunars. They could also be the reason that outside adventurers enter the Green (as bodyguards or mercenaries)

The big problem they would offer to the shared world is their use of firearms ( in my experience some people just don't like the idea of firearms in a fantasy world and that is understandable) and their use of the gates. Are Gates controllable? How are they really used?

Either of these could be left out, or the Guild altogether for that matter if it is a corny or overused idea. I am certainly open for ideas and options.

As for the moon idea, I had not even planned on using it for all the beast-connected people of the Green, but thought it could be an idea where we could kind of tie strands of the shared world together without being to intrusive. More than anything I thought it might be tied into some myth and threw it out there for discussion.

What other Beast Folk would people be interested in?

I too would like to see something on the Saurians. We have bounced around a lot of ideas, but nothing solid.

Actually, what I would find rather interesting would be more on the steppes themselves. I am kind of intrigued with the setting and who the centaurs would interact with.
