The Klyros now recruiting
« on: July 29, 2005, 12:17:28 pm »
THE REPTILIAN ORDER IS DEAD! all of the below is a waist to read



I am happy to announce the arrival of a new guild in PS, The Reptilian Order. The Reptilian Order is a guild especially for my kin, the race called Klyros (the bluish-green character with wings)

Everything about The Reptilian Order is on the website. http://www.reptilian-order.tk

To join the guild simply click the bottom button titled \"Visit our forums\" then register on the forums. Once registered, go to the bottom of the page and there should be \"Guild Applications\" there is where you can join.

I want EVERYONE to know that they should not join UNTIL they have read the rules, beliefs, AND the history.

Happy gaming everyone!

By request of Kiramon, I am posting everything about the guild here.

History
    Toward the beginning of time, there was a great war that broke out. This war was swift and quick. It was between the Klyros and the Trolls. Now, the the trolls were a very hostile group that were not so hostile once they got to know you, and they were living in the realm of the Klyros before the war even began.

     Yes, you guessed it, this is where Orndorff comes in. Now Orndorff had a very odd, but wealthy family and a very good friend named Qedosh. Orndorff was a half-n-half. His father was a troll and his mother was a Klyros. But oddly, his physical and mental states were 100% Klyros. His parents were only together to keep peace between the Trolls and the Klyros. Yes, they were the leaders of each group, his mother was Queen of the Klyros and his father was King of the Trolls, though neither controlled the opposite group.

     On his ninth birthday his parents were ingaged in an extremely large argument. No one could hear why they were arguing because they were in the other end of the castle where no one was expecting them. Orndorff, at that time, was looking for his father because his new short sword had gotten dull from killing rats. When he walked down the long winding stairway, he started to hear his father\'s scruffy barks. Then, suddenly, his father came raging out of the room and ran out of the castle. At that moment his mother called for the guards, told them to gather up every soldier possible, and prepare them for war.

     Orndorff was very confused and ran to his good friend Qedosh, who had played war with him in the streets every day of his life. When he arrived at the house of Qedosh, Qedosh was standing strait as a long sword staring in horror at the red sky. Orndorff was a little more than confused and was about ask him what was going on, but before he could speak he heard a horn blow and a few women scream. Then, suddenly ten-thousand trolls came raging down the hillside burning every house around.

     Qedosh and Orndorff ran off to a secret tunnel, where they used to hide from their parents. They waited and waited. For eight hours they sat in the cold and damp tunnel for the trolls to leave. They became very tired of sitting so Orndorff stood up to walk over to the south enterance to check if the trolls had left yet, but to his suprise, when he stepped out a troll jumped down from above and storted in Orndorff\'s face. Qedosh and Orndorff ran out the north enterance. They ran through the country of the Klyros\' so fast everything was a blur. They became very exhausted very fast because of the heat from the flames and descided to stop and try to find water in a house that was some-what in tact but still burnt up pretty bad. When they entered the black house, they saw no water at all... just dead bodies... They both ran outside and looked around and everyone around them was dead. Feeling a little sick, Orndorff and Qedosh descided to travel to the city that had the legendary temple in it that looked like a big flame. This city was also a trade center full of many different races. It was very far from Orndorff\'s castle. It was somewhere that no troll lived, at least we think so. Orndorff just wanted to grab some stuff from the castle beforre they left.

     Arriving at the castle the stood horror-strucken, they observing the imposibility of burning stone. Both were now VERY confused now and started running toward the city trying not remember one moment of that night, when unexpectedly they bump into gogetahan and descided to take him with them since he, like them, now had no one to look after them except eachother.

     After a dreadfully long walk, for 2 nine-year-olds and a 4-year-old, had such tired feet that they had to flutter with their wings that were not fully grown yet (not fully grown did not take them too far). Soon enough, they colapsed near some children playing in the fields. There were three of them total. Two of them were Enkidukai and the other one was a klyros. The klyros took them to town and in the morning showed Orndorff around.

     A while after that after each one of them had grown a few years, Orndorff had a sudden unstoppable mourning for his dead mom and the other klyros and wanted to keep the pride of the old klyros country he had once known. He also realized that the only good thing that had happened to him in his life were klyros. He rememberd how his mom had sword trained him and trained him in agility. He also rememberd the ugly trolls that were in magic school with him that were always flunking and threatening to kill him if he didn\'t help them.

     But, he knew not all races were bad because he had gotten help from the Enkidukai when they were exhausted, and when he was in the cave-in while exploring some mines men and dwarves had helped him out. He just favored klyros out of all because they were usually the most kind and helpful.

     After a while, Qedosh finally agreed to make a guild for Klyros.  Once gogetahan was old enough he too would join. After a bit of persuasion Dandamis joined and was a major help to the guild.  

Rules
1 - No \"stealing\" rats or other monsters from other players
2 - No fighting over such a petty thing as a rat because \" stole my rat!\"
3 - Treat everyone the same even if you are not.
4 - Help someone if they ask for help because I am sure you would appriciate the extra help if you were new.  
5 - Treat all other guild members with respect.
6 - Respect the guild leader because if you do not you will be kicked from the guild.
7 - Do not give any information to an enemy guild. If you are caught you will be immediately kicked from the guild.
8 - NEVER EVER NOT HAVE FUN!!
(have fun)  
9 - Never Spam or flam anyone
10 - MOST IMPORTANT: OBEY ALL PS RULES!

Beliefs
* I believe that there should be as little war as possible, but on occasion guild wars can be fun...
* If there is ever the need to have war (outside of having a fun guild war) is if another guild offends us or our race.
* If another player *not guild* offends us or our race, we should not give a responce to them. We should just add them to our \"ignore\" list.
* Every race is equal, every man is equal,
* Help everyone do not taunt them.
* If someone steals something from you, take it back but do not take more than what was taken from you.

Well, to start off with you got most of the basics: Story, website and so on. But I haven\'t seen anything about ranks or alignment, are these still under development?

also the yahoo thing on the website is extremely annoying, perhaps a change of host?

also I checked your forum and didn\'t find anything called guild applications...

Other than that, I find the rules a little thin - try and add more, you can eventually draw inspiration from other guilds.

Also interested in knowing what are the goals of the guild? and your name is a little unoriginal... \"The Klyros\"?
and last question, does your guild promote RP in any way?

2 finish off, I will give an advice and a note

*advice: Better to post the info here, instead of pointing us to the website - might seem extremely lasy.  

*note: You may use the Klyros picture, as long as it is in connection to Planeshift.

Should do it for now I think...

I\'m not even going to bother commenting on the rest of your guild until you change the name.

Seriously, \"The Klyros\"? That\'s just sad. If you become popular even the least little bit(which I doubt, being the cynical person I am...), then everyone\'s going to talk about \"The Klyros\" and no one\'s gonna know if they mean the race or the guild. Think about it, what\'s the point of having named a guild the same as a race? A race is already exclusive, having a guild for a race is... redundant.

Ah ha, so is this the mystery guild that keeps changing its name everytime it gets a new member?  Last time I looked it was called \"The Five Klyros\", but it was four and three before that... I was going to be evil and start up and alt and take the guild name \"The Six Klyros\", just to stop you, but I thought better of it...
And, as Phinehas has pointed out, its a pretty stupid name, really.  Ok your guild might be based on Klyroses (that cant be right... does anyone know what the plural for Klyros is? Klyorae?), but at least come up with something else.

well at least there are some \"rules\" and the like so hopefully it wont be one of those mass recruiting guilds, the ironicly named \"The Chosen Few\" anyone?

and the website loads funny in firefox .6 it might just be me though.
<Rux> i wish i could say that narrows it down, but the internet is one freaky place

1. Yes the ranks and alignment are under construction

2. I am sorry that I cannot change hosts because I know very little of html

3. I stated that you would need to register, but I will go change it so it is not hidden

4. On the rules, they are also under construction.

5. lol good point Pinehas. I never thought of that. I will try making a better name.

6. This guild promotes a little rp, but not much. The purpose is to destroy the foulest beasts which are and may be even worse than the threatening trolls Orndorff used to live with. And we are supposed to try to help hold peace between other players in the game, but if there is ever a guild war we will ally with the good and help fight evil.

7. The reason I did not post everything is because it is very long and would take up a large amount of space, but if you would like I will post it.

8. Thank you for letting me use the picture.

9. Don\'t worry Drey, I don\'t want It to be a mass recruitment.

10. Yes, ramlambmoo this is the \"mysterious\" guild that Kept changing its name, but then I descided it would be too hard for players to remember, so I stopped. Also, I did not know anyone was actually paying attention to our guild :D

Edit: I just realized that I will be gone for the next three days so it is highly likely that I will not be able to get on because today I have to go get a sports physical and Saturday and Sunday I will not be home.

o.O Thats a joke right?  Like, you\'re being sarcastic right?\"The Klyros Protectors of Good\"??  Can you get anymore unoriginal and cliched? Oh, I know, why dont you just name your guild \"The Good Guys\" or something.  Seriously mate, you gotta work on your guild naming skills....

I hope it is not too late to make a suggestion myself, as a member of the guild, even.

I offer as a suggestion:

 \"Order of the Balanced Klyros\"

or

\"Klyrosian Order of Balance\"

What say thee, fellow Klyros?

Couldn\'t you at least make a suggestion if you don\'t like mine?  Or offer constructive criticism about _why_ you don\'t like it?

Oh wait - nevermind - you\'re the guy in the guild with the name \"Terrible Killers\" in Latin (a language which doesn\'t exist in Yliakum, BTW) - yeah, that\'s a much more original name.  hmmmmm.

Thanks anyway for your feedback.  If the \"Terrible Killers\" didn\'t like it, I must be on the right track.  ;-)

As a side note I wanted to add that I think my suggestion is in line with both the history of the guild as presented by Ordorff and also with the spirit of his intentions (\"protectors of good\", etc.)
