Similar to other Guild Wars games, Guild Wars 3 shares the same importance of having unique lore associated with each race, guild, and alliance throughout the game. As you explore and progress in each game, you get to learn more and more about which guilds and alliances may be friendly towards each other or are enemies (and the reasons why).
Luckily for us, we have a lot to look forward to in regard to the lore of each alliance in Guild Wars 3, as it’s taking place in Ancient Orr, taking us back thousands of years in the past – meaning a new storyline and history associated with each alliance.
One of these alliances that have been recently introduced are known as the Mavenwrights. The Mavenwrights are a human-founded alliance of builders and workers that have the strong belief that magic will be the primary source to move humanity forward into the future.
In Guild Wars 3, they have a strong rivalry against the Vaelwardens, which sounds like will be very clear as soon as we start taking our first steps into Ancient Orr. The conflict between these two guilds have been rising on an ongoing basis, which has been leading to open conflict across Ancient Orr. To sum it up, the Mavenwrights believe that one less member of the Order of the Vael is one less obstacle towards humanity’s progression.

The History of the Mavenwrights
Interestingly, the Mavenwrights are known to be a newer alliance in Guild Wars 3, as they were formed just over 20 years before the start of the game. Their founder is known as a man named Ricken “the Hammer” Oberon, who leads their vision of reaching and building towards a better future.
The conflict between the Mavenwrights and the Vaelwardens primarily stemmed off claiming land. To be more specific, Oberon ventured to make a fortune through land grabs in the wilds across Tughra Basin, which led him into conflict with them.
