The Circle Of Skara
From Atlantic Roleplay Wiki
Title: The Circle of Skara
Author: Han Telemnar
Mission Statement:
To prouide refuge and assistance to the inexperienced traveler thorugh effective mentoring and guidance.
To assist new and returning players connect with the Atlantic community of guilds. To adventure, travel, and experience the land of Ultima as a close knit group of adventurers and friends. We are comprised of every background and profession - mage and warrior alike. Our individual strengths combine to form a powerful and effective group of adventurers.
Out of Character (OOC):
The Circle of Skara is a semi role-playing guild comprised of fellow adventurers. Members of the Circle consider one another family and are as vital to one another as they are to themselves.
The Circle of Skara Library is a place where members of the Circle of Skara teach, mentor, and guide inexperienced players. This is accomplished not by merely providing supplies and advice, but rather through one on one guidance. Although students may find themselves recipients of monetary items, this is not the Circle's primary method.
In other words, we prefer to show our students how to fish instead of handing them the fish.
Recruitment:
The Circle of Skara does not actively recruit. In other word, it is not our intention to grow our numbers. The growth of the guild is soley dependent upon friendships. Ronins are free to come and leave as fits their needs.
Guild Structure:
Ronins - This rank is reserved for students only. Each student will be given the title "student." A specific title will be given once the player has chosen his path (i.e., archer, warrior, mage, etc.). Each student will have a mentor. This will be the Circle's member whom takes it upon himself/herself to assist and mentor the student. There is no time limit or restriction at this rank. It should be noted that this rank is intended to provide young and inexperienced players the opportunity to connect with Atlantic's vast community of guilds through the Circle of Skara's alliance network. At any time, the student may find an Atlantic guild that suits his/her personal play style. Therefore, it is encouraged the student to seek out other guilds when he/she feels ready.
Members - Members are students who have decided the Circle of Skara is the home they are looking for. Each member is considered a close friend and fellow adventurer. In order to achieve membership all emissaries must agree upon the individual joining this rank.
Emissaries - This rank is reserved for dedicated adventurers of the Circle of Skara. There is no specific rank structure among emissaries. In other words, each member has an equal voice and vote on all things related to the guild. However, no single emissary acts alone.
Guild Leader - This rank is reserved for the acting holder of the guild. The guild leader is no different than the emissary in terms of voice and vote. This position may be transferred from one emissary to another depending upon real-life circumstances.
Rules:
The Circle of Skara is a semi role-playing guild. Therefore, no outrageous names are allowed past the rank of ronin (e.g., IPKU, I am number one, DUDE, etc.). There are no restrictions on magic or crafted equipment.
However, one's appearance should represent their character's profession. Absolutely no non-consent pvp is allowed. This rule is extremely strict. Any violation may result in permanent removal.
Regarding allied guilds -
Any member attacking (without consent) or disrespecting a member of an allied guild will be removed from the guild immediately and permanently.
