	'''[[Agostino]]''': Commodore of the Acordant Archipelago division within DEW. A family man and quite gregarious. During his time in Kara, Agustino sought to spread his influence, enjoy good parties, and recover the “Command Stone” before Figh could use it. He hired his own force of guards from skilled Karans, handed out large amounts of silver to the populace, and even assisted members from the Duchy of Stendahl in locating the legendary lost forge of Hammerhand.

	'''[[Eargus Glowgoarge]]'''(Deceased): Credited with putting Kara on the trade maps, Eargus was a renowned explorer sponsored and employed by the Determiners. He would explore new markets, hunt down legends to find their truth, recover any artifacts the Determiners deemed profitable, and return the others to local people. He was friendly and outgoing to many Karans, genuinely loving the people and looking for their adoration. Eargus had the most knowledge of what the “Command Stone” was for and the leads to track down to locate the “Cache” mentioned. Unfortunately, before Eargus was able to recover the “Command Stone,” he was killed at a party for him by a member of Figh who had been hiding amongst the members of DEW.

They set up a program and reactivated their trade post within Kara to export as many unique items as possible. They hired many Karans and caused a massive influx of silver into the economy.

	Soon after, the export program started to wind down, and Kara was informed that a delegation from The Determiners, including the Commodore of the Accordant Archipelago, would be arriving soon. The whole affair started with a [[Determer's Gala \| masquerade ball]] to introduce the representatives from DEW to Kara while hiding their true intentions for their visit, which was the recovery of a “Command Stone” stolen by a group called [[The Figh \|Figh]]. A mire of intrigue, secrets, backstabbing, and backroom conversations followed, leading to [[Face Stealer Conflict \| war with the face-stealer demons]]. The Determiners ultimately worked with Figh and the [[Stone Bay\|Kingdom of Stonebay]] to rid Kara of the [[Face Stealers\| face-stealers]] and undo the damage caused as best they could, all while sprinkling their influence into the minds of Karans. This combined effort and an act to preserve The Dermerners Of the Eight Winds' connections with Kara led to the signing of the “Command Stone Accord” between all three parties, restoring peace and trade.

	The Determiners of the Eight Winds is a mega mercantile company formed by the Merchant Princes of Dormas. These princes were wealthy individuals and families who formed the loose federation government of Dormas. They use DEW to connect the world with trade and further each of their specialties to gain even more wealth and power. The Determiners have a hand on every continent and in almost every port west of [[The Adredahn]], connecting and facilitating the flow of goods and services across the seas. Positions as Merchant princes are not based on hereditary lines but instead on the merits and wealth of each individual. Within the last century, DEW has increased its interest in sovereign trade posts in the [[The Wilden Wood \| Wilden Wood]] and south of [[Yariel]], forming colonies as they grew.

With her previous “personal” connection to a member of Figh, those who spoke with Habagat would be given a unique perspective on the organization. Habagat, during the war with the “face-stealer” demons, performed a ritual to reach out to her God, one that brought many concerns to Karans.
