Title: [GUILD] Scions of Wyldewood
Post by: Anfa on May 29, 2006, 12:52:05 pm
Scions of Wyldewood

The Scions of Wyldewood are a guild within the Planeshift world of Yialkum that was established in Jan '06. We have been an active guild within the game since our establishment and continue to learn and grow. We do encourage our members to develope strong characters [ya ya- oh-no- Powerlevelers  eek!!] with the intent of being able to test and try all the weapons and spells that are introduced into the planeshift world. We do not focus on PVP dueling except as participants in the many tournaments. We encourage our members to seek out the many, many rp events that go on daily to develop a mind-set that every moment within PS is an rp event.
Very rarely will a Scion be caught ingame, out of character.

The Background of the Scions of Wyldewood is the Wyldewood itself.

 http://scionsofwyldewood.nomadicwolf.com

Those wondering where "the Wyldewood" is... over-the-hills and far away is the answer. Only those invited or brought into the Wyldewood by the Children themselves shall ever go there. Many of our members will spend time in the Wyldewood having been summoned there or sent by the guild leader. We are hoping to start a thread in the storytelling section.."Stories from the Wyldewood" to share our home with others in Yialkum.

Many times will the comment "the children" be heard from the mouths of Scions when speaking of their elders.The Children are the original Scions who live within the Wyldewood and whom our Guild represents. It is their teachings and values that our guild reflects. They remain within the Wyldewood, but the guild, from time to time, will seek out their wisdom and knowledge.

From the website:
"There is a healing to be found within the Wyldewood. The lessons learned among the Scions are nobility of spirit, generosity and kindness. Personal honour is vital to the Scions. That all life is sacred and should be protected. That their word is their bond, and their actions reflect the beliefs of the Wyldewood. To become a Scion, you become one of the clan. And will be welcomed and loved as family of the heart. Though a Scion may walk alone, they shall never be lonely for the clan is always there..."

The Scions do not actively Recruit. We will help any who request it, offering advice and some equipement to get started. When asked about our guild, it is recommended that anyone seeking to join a guild first explore all their options. We will welcome any enquires encouraging those who are interested in us to get to know as many Scions as possible and to find a Peer Leader or Watcher to bond with who will be willing to sponsor their becoming a Scion. Yes we are a difficult Guild to get into, and we like it like that!

We wish to remain an independent guild within Yialkum, only allowing alliances with other guilds that reflect our values.
Any who feel they have been wronged or who wish help in repairing a misunderstanding ingame can approach a Scion for help and mediation. We strive to maintain a balance and harmony within our world so that all way live in peace. We will voice our position on any injustice or concerns we may perceive regarding freedom and equality within Yialkum. Although fairly new to Yialkum we live here too, and do not fear to offer our opinions over policies and/or actions that may affect other citizens of Yialkum.

Although technically there is no alignment in Plane Shift our guild would reflect a "chaotic good" mentality.

Greetings all and welcome,
Anfa, Watcher for the Scions of Wyldewood
[arrogant? I have been acused of this! nosey? openly admit it!! friendly? most definitely!! I look forward to seeing all of you ingame!]



The Levels within the Scions of Wyldewood...


Apprentice level-


The Apprentice level is for the purpose of setting up the habits of generosity and kindness within our new members. It is a chance for new members to get to know the clan as well as to begin establishing a strong "role playing" mindset.

Journeyman levels-


There are three Journeyman levels for members to work through. This is an opportunity for members to better get to know the people of this land through questing and to practice their interaction with the rest of Yialkum. We also expect a certain level of training as the members work their way up through the levels establishing a knowledgable and strong character.

Peer Leader-

This is the level when Members can now take on apprentices of their own. They have demonstrated a stong ability to "role play" understanding the importance of this ability within the "Plane Shift" world. They now have the knowledge and Know-how to be able to advice the new members of the Scions when advice is asked for. This is also the time that members need to decide what future jobs they wish to focus on...

Clan Advisor [representing many different job descriptions within the Scions due to the limited level titles allowed the guilds at this time]-

A Clan Advisor is expected to add their voice to the decision making process within the guild. Potential members, guild policies, alliances that are proposed are all issues that clan advisors can express their opinions on. The final decision will still fall upon the shoulders of the Guild leader but the opinions of the watchers and the clan advisers will be sought before any decisions are finalized.

Shop Keeper-


Within the Guild there is the opportunity to become a shop keeper supported by the guild and earning money for the guild. This is a "hardcore role playing position" when members have had enough of fighting. This position does not have to be permanent if the member wishes to return to the life of a fighter and clan advisor status.

Watcher-


It is the role of the watcher to keep an eye on the actions of the people of this land. "hard core role playing" with interaction with the other guilds and gamemasters, setting up the role our guild has within the role playing community. Overseeing the development of the newer members characters and stories is also a job for the watchers. They are the ones who will confirm any recommendations to the guild leader of new membership requests as well as help plan any Guild activities. This position is not one that can be earned, but is offered by the guild leader to a member who has displayed exceptional role playing abilities as well as a very stong dedication to the Guild.

Guild Leader-

The Position of guild leader was assigned by the Legendary children. It was by their request that our present Guild Leader leads our guild and it will be a position only the present guild leader can offer to another.

For anyone looking for a Scion the next little while I apologize now for our absence from Yialkum.

It is the time for the gathering of the Scion clans within the Wyldewood and many of our guild members have headed home to participate in the celebrations. Our Guild Leader, Sreamah, will be remaining in Yialkum to hold down the fort but I will be off to the Wyldewood to act as head of our clan at the gathering.

Many blessings to all and I will see you all when I return to Yialkum.

Fare thee well

Well now, it seems the Scions of Wyldewood would be interested in finding Trade partners.
Any guild or individual who may be interested in setting up trade with the Scions please approach me or my Guild Leader [when she returns] ingame to discuss it.

Cheers

Do you ever get sick of talking to yourself?

On a different note, what would be the benefit of becoming a trade partner with you?

Your job is to talk to yourself? Ever consider appealing to your authorities about this? It seems rather degrading.

Yes, I noticed. But purely OOC I was wondering what the purpose would be of having a trade agreement with you. I'm not saying I want one or am trying to set one up, I'm simply interested in what you could possibly offer. If, for some strange reason, you have no desire to divulge this in any way other than IC, well... I'll try and quell my curiousity.

Strange reason is, we like to keep guild business ingame and In character as much as possible.

I do not think you will have too much trouble quelling your curiousity  ;D

*sigh*

Am I so poor at communicating? I'm not interested in actually doing business with your guild. I'm interested, purely OOC, in what would be the IC benefits of doing so. I don't need details, nor am I trying to set up a contract, I simply want to know what you could possibly offer.

You are not interested in doing business? Then why would you care? I am truly confused as to why you are so insistent on asking for this information? Anyone interested in doing business with us can sit down in the tavern {Ingame} and have a discussion with my guild leader about what benefits there might be in trading with us. You want to deal OOC, we do not.

Is that clear?

ps. you are not so poor in communicating as much as I was trying to be polite! If you are not interested in doing business with us than what benefits there may be is no business of yours.

*Phinehas chuckles.*

Oh my. This is truly interesting. I do hope that you are not planning for trade to be a major part of your guild's income. At this rate it's not going to be.

I'm even considering making you regret toying with me this way.

Almost a year later and we walk the streets of Hydlaa once more. I am tired of my wanderings and have returned home with some of my fellow Scions. Feel free to say hello, if I haven't had a chance to meet you. We are a friendly sort and I have a lot to catch up on.

It is good to be back in Yialkum!

I enjoy the initiative and how the history and general guide-lines of the guild are explained. However, I notice OOC references in the topic post that seem a bit off.

I wouldn't bother filling it up with "hard core roleplayer" talk and other such nonsense. Everyone in PlaneShift should just simply be a role player. "Hard core" and "powerlevelers" and stuff aren't terms we want to have explicit in a guild thread, as it focus on OOC stuff instead of driving the player into immersing in the atmosphere of your guild.

You did a good job in creating the concept of Wyldewood and its tradition, so I would ask you to tune up your promotional thread so it can concentrate on that. This way it would make for a better read, it would pass an interesting message and it would certainly make people understand that your guild knows how to roleplay.

As a side note: I do know this guild is not new. As I do know I'm quite happy to see you back with us once again. It'll be lovely having you around Anfa!

Agreed Sangwa, and good to see you are still around as well!!
But..until this watcher gets a feel for the Yialkum that is, rather than the one I remember, I'm going to hold off on updating the RP/IG aspect.

Thanks for the imput!  :thumbup:
