The Daybreak
"A piece of work, that ship. With so many critters on-board and the amount of trouble this crew seems to find, it's a miracle she's still airborne."
- The Daybreak was once an Aetherblade vessel, heavily damaged during the Battle for Lion's Arch and recovered afterward for salvage purposes. It sat in a scrapyard for four years where it waited for its future captain to claim it.
- Ownership of The Daybreak was gained in 1331 AE after the death of King Joko the Inevitable. It took almost two years to get her air worthy due to the scarcity of parts for repairs. In 1333 AE, the ship was officially christened and crew recruitment began.

The Isle of Dawn
- The crew's base of operations is on the Isle of Dawn, far to the northwest of the Maguuma Jungle. The guild hall was built out of ruins that have been restored and refurbished for modern day use, including barracks, libraries, and research facilities. The hall sits perched overlooking the sea, with griffon caves dotting the cliffside over the waves.
- Griffons are intrinsically tied into the purpose of the guild. After recovering them from the Sunspear Sanctuary, the guild has pledged to protect and conserve the species, and recruits like-minded members to help in their mission. Everyone on staff is incredibly knowledgeable on keeping the species happy and healthy, and the guild seeks to pair griffons with riders to help bring the creatures out of obscurity.
