About the Iron Circle
The Iron Circle is a Heavy Role-play guild associated with the upcoming games ArcheAge, EverQuest Next and Albion Online. It is meant as a sanctuary for the wayward role-player, a home away from home. It is meant to possess a relaxed atmosphere, a place for them to indulge in jokes and good humour. It is also a platform for their characters to perform; a stage for the drama, the comedy, and the tragedy that will be a part of their character’s lives. Our intention is to cultivate a membership of mature, intelligent and entertaining players who prioritize fun and camaraderie over strict progression. The guild is based off of a mercenary/adventuring group concept in a more traditional D&D sense.
It is expected that everyone in the guild to be able to handle mature content. As can be expected from the theme of the guild – a group of mercenaries who will take whatever measures necessary to take back their homes – The Iron Circle will go over some dark stuff. Drug use, sexuality, gore and the like would not be unusual. It’s much closer to say that we encourage a darker atmosphere than your usual roleplaying guild. Whereas the usual fantasy RP guild is comparable to a Forgotten Realms novel, we are much closer to George R. R. Martin and R. Scott Baker. If you are comfortable with them, then chances are you would do well with the Iron Circle. However, if you find the darker side of humanity to be something you are not comfortable with, then the Iron Circle is not for you. It should be noted that we are NOT an 'evil' guild, good and evil are subjective terms and should be treated as such. Despite exploring darker themes that does not mean we are a ERP guild or a inherently insidious group of characters, we welcome all types of roleplayers into our fold.
Our Community - The Albion Online Community
We want to foster a community of players who use good judgement, are polite, and help make the Albion Online game community a great place to play. We want to do this as a community, even if you aren't a part of the guild. The Iron Circle will be hosting community wide events and contests so that all players on our server can take part in the fun. Not all of these events will be RP oriented but certainly some will be.
At the end of the day we're all people playing a game and looking to have a good time. Just remember why you're playing and always remember that on the other side of that character there is a player.
Guild Events - Community Events - Guild Campaign
All of our Guild Campaigns will focus on various plot aspects, with one overarching storyline playing into the current arch of the campaign. Much of our story will come from interaction with other guilds through trade agreements, escort missions and other jobs.
At the end of each story we will conclude and then write a short summary covering the build up, the major aspects and the major characters of each guild storyline. This we hope will tell the story of our characters and our guild in a easy to read, organized fashion. We don't plan on creating page after page of expanded mythos or lore, we want a compact storyline that is easy for new members to follow so that they can easily throw their own characters into the mix.
Guild and community campaign events will be organized and ran by one of our guild Game Masters (GM) who will work in tandem with guild officers and those participating in the event to create a fun story experience for all. During these events the GM will act as the mediator during conflicts and will act as the primary storyteller throughout the event.
Age Requirements & Character Personalities
The Iron Circle is not your usual run of the mill guild. There are certain characters that, ICly, just would not work well with us. The childishly naïve, the simple minded, and those whose only purpose is to be comic relief are a few examples. When thinking of joining us, ask yourself this: “If my character was alive in the Middle Ages, is it likely that he/she would join a group of highly trained and disciplined mercenaries who swear no allegiance to any singular nation or faction but their own. If your answer is no, then this is not the guild for your character.
The required age for joining The Iron Circle is 18+.
