Alchemist's Guild

The alchemists claim to be able to transmute metals and create living creatures of flame. They guard their secrets and recipes fervently. One of these recipes is the legendarily dangerous, Wildfire. Which is called the substance by the guild. In more recent times, they are still likely to hint at possessing vast secret stores of knowledge, though they only demonstrate the skill to create wildfire, which they call the substance. The wildfire is created in the Guildhall, located on the Street of the Sisters, close to Visenya's Hill in King's Landing. The hall is an imposing labyrinth of cold, black stone. Great care is taken when producing wildfire. Trained acolytes prepare the product in bare stone cells, and once a jar is ready, it is immediately removed by an apprentice and brought to the vaults. As the rise of Maester's Climb, there is a slow decline happening in the Guild.

Gold Cloaks

The City Watch of King's Landing wear cloaks, usually made of heavy wool, dyed gold. They are equipped with mail armor, iron cudgels, iron spears, dirks, and occasionally longswords. Their armor, boots, and gloves are black. The officers (such as the captains of the gates into the city) wear black breastplates ornamented with four golden disks.

Daemon Targaryen in his younger days became Lord Commander of the City Watch in King's Landing. He is a charismatic leader and the guardsmen love him to this day. It is Daemon that saw to each of the guards getting gold cloaks. So it is because of him that the city watch has become known as the Gold Cloaks. They can be used as guards, foot soldiers or in some cases, as mounted lancers. Nonetheless, the watchmen are not true soldiers, and their discipline in a pitched battle shows this fact.

Iron Bank of Braavos



Currently, Lyman Beesbury, Master of Coin, and Ser Tyland Lannister, Master of Ships, have arranged for the crown to be debt free with the Iron Bank and even have some stockpiles of the royal treasury safely tucked away by the bank.
