The party is the informal name used by Juniper Smith to encompass himself and the people traveling alongside him as he completes quests all over Aerb. It's a term originating from Tabletop Roleplaying games.
Not to be confused with the Council of Arches, another name for the party that eventually morphed into a major national agency.

History[]
Juniper stumbled into Amaryllis while she was fixing a Soulcycle in the process of leaving the town of Comfort, and they teamed up out of necessity. Thickenings
Juniper met Fenn in Silmar City, where she saved his life from a Zombie Voltron using her artillery bow. A Winding Course They stuck together once Fenn saved his life from Quills. ELEVATOR facts
Juniper and Fenn approached Grak to purchase his services as a warder in the rescue of Amaryllis from Aumann's tower. He initially decided to join the party so he could earn enough gold to pay his penance. Greychapel
The Party encountered Solace in the middle of nowhere, near some train tracks. She had been waiting for them after casting the Zorisad Yosivun, a ritual meant to find those willing and someday capable of helping save the Six-Eyed Doe. She (and by extension the locus) joined the party so she could accomplish this goal. In Search of a Quest
Juniper's party met Valencia (then a nameless nonanima) at the Amoureux Penitentiary, where she was held captive by Fallatehr Whiteshell, having been created as a soul magic experiment. Animus Valencia joined the party once Amaryllis saved her, after Fallatehr was defeated. The Mouth of a Long River
Bethel gave Juniper a chance and joined the party after they convinced her that they just wanted to use her as a home. Immanentizing the Eschaton
Raven Masters, Pallida Sade, Heshnel Elec and Gemma Tails eventually joined the party once it became clear how important Juniper was to stopping the major factions threatening the future of Aerb. The Remnants of the Past
Heshnel Elec left the party behind after his unfortunate decapitation during the fight with Mome Rath. He claimed he had plans ready for the inconvenience, and that it was the end of his burdens. Deus Ex
