just guessing he chose us instead of any of the other foppish guilds... (and that he wasn\'t forced :P, that would not be as cool)

We are happy to announce that AO and Rangers guild have committed to a comprehensive alliance between our two guilds. The exact terms of our alliance agreement are not publicly know, save to say that we will back each other up to the hilt.

AO takes pride in it\'s loyalty to it\'s allies and therefore we choose them carefully. Congratulations to both ourselves and Rangers  :D

Rangers, we are proud to be associated with you!

Don\'t worry, Mommy is back and will teach the Mad Mumblin\' Englishman  and our New Mad Mumbling Monk  to talk \"sense\"  about \"in-cense\" and \"cents\"  for their money\'s worth \"since\"  none of us others that have our \"senses\"  in place can understand in what \"sense\"  of the word their \"s(ent)ences\" should make any \"sense\"  to the rest of us  8o  :D

Btw Deos, nice to see a new member active here eventhough we don\'t have a clue what your on about  :P  

For any other poor ppl reading this thread it IS about recruitment for new members to AO. Right now we are displaying how much fun we have in AO. Also this is a test, if you get scared away by Mad Mumblers, be they Englishmen or Monks (no real difference there  8o ), you are not fit to be an AO member. A Mage needs to be able to concentrate on chanting his spells no matter how bad the background noise and distractions are  :P



This post won\'t make much sense now. I just deleted nearly 2 entire pages of back-to-back spam posts. Come on guys... you can do better than this. This thread was created to get away from that crap and now its own members spam it up again?

It\'s okay to have a couple of chit-chat posts here and there. Stuff like that is sociable and funny and doesn\'t get deleted. But 2 pages of it... that\'s just disrespectful to the person who created this topic in the first place.

Please don\'t do it.

I don\'t think Tepsu\'s much into what happens here :P

But still, yes, it is stupid to get the thread all spammed up (not saying that I\'m innocent)

We should, of course, concentrate on getting more members to this most excellent guild.
I don\'t know about the others, but I\'ve stopped spamming (here :P)

Initial Post - By Tepsu -
Arcane Order is a guild for mages and wizards. All races in Yliakum are accepted as members, the only requirement is that the player\'s character will practice magic.

Arcane Order has 9 ranks and 3 branches . Also it covers all 6 ways of Magic in Yliakum with a Council Member overseeing the practice of Magic in each of these. The 6 member Council is the Authoritative body of AO and makes decissions by consensus and/or majority vote.

The 3 branches are :


   1. Spellsword - This branch is for fighters who practice magical skills to aid in combat, thus Fighter/Mages. Our spellswords are our protection, the threat of their revenge serves to keep our guild at peace and Spellsword will protect fellow members on quests etc.
   2. NightBlade - This branch is for rogues who use magic to aid improve their stealth, spying, stealing, backstabbing etc. (you know, the stuff rogues usually do). They are thus Rogue/Mages. Nightblades serve as AO\'s eyes and ears, they provide us the necessary intelligence and subversive capability we need to survive in a dangerous world.
   3. Warlock - This branch is for our pure mages, who will mainly practice their magical abilities. The Warlock branch is the mainstay of Mages that make Ao the Mage guild that it is, however all three branches have equal status and are equally important to AO.



More info about all our branches, the ranking system, membership policy and AO in general can be found on our homepage.

Anyone interested in joining AO, may send an email to join@arcaneorder.cjb.net.

The email should contain the following:


   1. Name
   2. Country of residence
   3. Character description of the character you intend to play in PS



About the ranking system can be said that all new member start out as an apprentice. There is a minimum of 3 weeks trial period for Apprentices during which time we get to know the new member and guage his/her commitment, activity and suitability as member of AO.
An active and committed member that \"gels\" well with the other members will be promoted to the rank of Adept according to merit. All promotion decission are made by Council.

The second promotion opportunity will allow the member to choose one of the 3 branches named above, i.e. SpellSword, NightBlade or Warlock.

You can also find us in irc in #arcaneorder @ quakenet and contact councilmembers via msn messenger. You can find our msn addresses on our homepage.

Since when has Paladin of Mystra become Original!?

Mystra is the dead god of magic in D&D :P

Spellswords, Nightblades and Warlocks are terms used before, granted, but they are also the best at describing what your rank really is within the guild, should you ever get promoted to such... Therefore they are the best..

We don\'t live by code of conduct set by D&D\'ers :P I can honestly say that we chose the ranks from something completely random... The fact that they are all classes in the old game Daggerfall is merely a coinsidence :P :rolleyes:

Wolmane back from the dead

Hi everyone, Illyria has been on a Necromancing quest into serious and dark netherworlds. Believe me I saw murky things no-one wants to or should see ....  8o

Anyway I\'m back. It is nice to see there is still life here in the upper world and that the sun is still shining on AO  :D
