Clans and Guilds?

[Clanky he/him]

Hello everyone!

I am new to 17th shard and just trying to figure out how everything works. I have been looking at the guilds and clans and I'm not really sure how they work. 

If someone could explain them to me that would be great!

 

I'm also open for pitches trying to sell your clan once I know more about what they are.

The DA is devoted to research and the science of Hemalurgy. We are a pretty laid-back and fun organization. We give out spikes cookies to anybody who will take them. (And some who won't) To understand the DA, you should really check out the beginning pages of the DA thread. Join us.*

Any specific questions? Generally, if you look at enough stuff, you'll begin to understand the inside jokes and such.

Edit: And by the way, I'm only three weeks old myself, so as you can see, it's fairly easy to figure out.

Basically, it's freeform RP with various factions. I'm Clan/Guildless for now, as the Wafflesworn (my people) are mostly too busy to post. Right now, there's a lot of fighting going on.

How do clan fights work?

Again, it seems to just come down to free form roleplaying; as long as you don't do something overpowered, ridiculous, or game breaking, the rest seems to be a gentlemans agreement that they "be fair".

Of course, I once brought two horse-goddesses to a gun fight. Overpowered is relative.

For example, check out the Anti-Bakery vs. The Dark Alley thread in the social forum.

The Newcago Court is a powerful guild in which has many fun events such as royal balls. Sporting events, danceoffs and more. Joining Newcago Court in the guilds will get you a title in the social groups and guilds section as well as a shardblade and steel armour. To find out more, just post your questions or look at the beginning of the thread.

Elsa brings up a good point. For most guilds, you can look at the first few pages and have a general idea as to what they're about.

If you join the Dark Alley, you gain access to any and every form of Investiture.

You should obviously join whatever my guild is called, I think Shroomies (?), because then you get to be a Smurf and Smurfs are clearly awesome.

...ree-diculous.

[TheSilverDragon he/him]

Well the choice of what guild is fairly obvious, join The Pack of the Cosmere. You get to become a wolf.

Well that is if the Dark Ally gives back winter anytime soon.

Soooooooo, that's a yes? If you were to join it would bring our legion from 2 (?) to 3. Maybe. I'm not sure.

[Clanky he/him]

Sounds like there's some good options out there. I may have to do some research before I decide. 

 

 

I also may not be opposed to bribery

I will most certainly not join. I'm a Denizen.

Well by all means, have a package of soup, cookies, and enchiladas, courtesy of the Dark Alley.

Then here is a snowcone and a iced donut. Straight from Newcago.

I have heard that the Dark Alley has the best baking.

[Guest]

That, in fact, is true, my friend.

We pretty much have the best everything.

Just sayin'

[Redbird he/him]

We also have all kinds of fun departments, like zoohemalurgy, shipping, or just research. 

[Guest]

And sales. 

 

 

BTW, I just started a new Guild...

If you wish there's always the gunsmoke barony. It's a subset of the Newcago Court, with all the rights and privileges, but themed on Trigun Star Wars and Dune and any other science fiction you would like to bring in.
