'''Comment:''' slight extension
 <nowiki>

A '''redcap''' is a member of [[House Mercere]] is good standing, employed as a messenger in the [[Order of Hermes]]. Although ostensibly full members of the Order, redcaps do not wield [[Hermetic magic]] and do not vote at [[tribunal|tribunals]]. Despite this, redcaps enjoy the full protection of the [[Code of Hermes|Code]], and further protections laid down in the [[Peripheral Code]]. They are [[Companion]]-level characters.

The redcap network provides essential services in trade and communication for [[magi]]. Trade in books and [[raw vis]], correspondence with fellow scholars and the delivery of messages (especially official ones) and more are all typically accomplished through the redcap network.
