Well, it was pretty productive considering Vhal and Arl weren’t there. The main things decided were:

#1: We are not part of Blade Empire in anyway, shape or form.

I hope people understand that we are not against Blade Empire; we simply are not part of Blade Empire.

#2: We standardized the recruitment process a bit more. (Don’t worry Khamax, this is more semantic than anything else. You still have command of Recruitment). The biggest change or addition was the introduction of the Mentorship program.

The recruitment process was broken down into four phases:
~ Application Phase
~ Trial Phase
~ Recruit Phase
~ Member Phase

The Application Phase is where the new recruit reads through the rules, and fills out the application, and meets with our guild in-game (if applicable). The Application Phase begins when the recruit approaches our guild and ends when he submits his application.
~ Once the application in received, the recruit should get a PM and an e-mail with our ‘Application Received’ form letter. Khamax, I’ll need you to get a rough draft of this ASAP.

The Trial Phase is the maximum three days of time in which we are scrutinizing the application and evaluating the new recruits posts and in-game actions. (For guilds not already in a game, this is two-weeks of time.)
~ Once the application has been approved or denied, the recruit should get a PM and an e-mail with our ‘Application Approved’ or ‘Application Denied’ form letter. Khamax, I’ll need you to get a rough draft of this ASAP.
~ The Application Denied letter is to explain why the applicant was denied.

The Recruit Phase is the 30 to 90 days the recruit must spend as a Recruit before being voted into the guild. At this point the recruit is no longer the responsibility of the Recruitment Division, but is now moved to the Mentorship Division.
~ The Mentorship Division is responsible for ensuring the new recruit knows and understands what we as a guild are about - our rules, our standards, our expectations, and generally how we operate. A mentor isn’t one single person. Rather it is a group of people, anyone of which is there to help the new recruit.
~ Do we want to create a SrO position for Mentorship or do we want to make it a JrO position under either Recruiting or Internal Relations?

After 30 days, the recruit can ask for his ‘Vote of Entrance’. If accepted, the recruit becomes a Full Members and enters the Member Phase. (The Member Phase is a fancy way of saying that he is no longer a Recruit). Upon the determination of the vote, the recruit should get a PM and an e-mail with our ‘Membership Approved’ or ‘Membership Denied’ form letter. Khamax, I’ll need you to get a rough draft of this ASAP.
~ The Membership Denied letter is to explain why the applicant was denied and explain what options are open to him/her. (i.e. Wait 14 more days, if applicable)

#3: It was agreed that throughout the entire Legion of Myth (MMO) that GL, XO and 2O should not micromanage or have any direct responsibility. This will better lend them able to look over the guild as a whole. (Basically, this just confirms what I typed up for us.)

#4: At the end there was some talk about making an overall Lore that covers every LoM guild.

I asked Nafzib to talk to Rooks about this as Rooks is the one typing up our Lore. For the record, I am leery of an overall, singular Lore. I think it can only handicap the individual guilds. However, I said I’d be open to the idea - at least until I see it. Rooks, I’ll let you handle this. Let me know if you need anything from me.

Okay, that’s it for now.

[Rooks (Kedryn)]

er I really dislike guild lore as one whole, lets face it we can never be the same, we are worlds apart.
Was this lore thing talked about after I logged or something?
I mean what kind of lore could we have as a whole?

Oh and I said I would have lore up today so I am post what I have *note its not much but it took me a while to get something #1 that works and #2 that I like and I think you all will like.

[Nafzib]

Have you ever played the RP game Rifts? It is a game that allows you to move around through different Gaming Universes.

The thing I see linking all the games is that we have our skill of play already set in our minds, all we have to do is develop new characters and learn about new worlds.

It is almost as if your spirit is going into each game we play. So here is the basic outline... open of course to any comments.

The Legion of Myth is a group of adventurers who have exhausted all their adventure in their Universe. They have the best technology, they have killed all the most dangerous creatures, in a sense they have exterminated themselves as Adventurers by doing it too much. There is no challenge left for them... in that Universe anyway.

In 5076 MT (Mythos Time) Garrilous Clintok discovered the existance of other Universes untouched by the Legion of Myth. He found new and virgin territories to be explored.

Twelve years later, 5088 MT, his son Finnley Clintok discovered the key to Transuniversal travel. The key he found was in the creation of life. When any new creature is born the spark of life is thrown in them. This spark contains the primal memory of his past ancestors. Finnely discovered that all he had to do was replace the spark of that creature with the already living spark of somone in his own Universe.

The one problem with this was that the only time he could switch the sparks of life was at the moment of conception. This meant that whoever decided to use the transuniversal travel had to grow and develop as whatever creature he had taken over. Also, he only had his most primal memories.

The other problem he had was finding test subjects for his experiments. He found a willing group in the Legion of Myth.

So, enjoy this Mausoleum. As you walk by, do not look at the faces of these heros in cryofreeze here as if they all had tragic deaths. These are just husks. Their souls are fighting and winning in whatever Universe they happen to be in.

Long Live the Legion of Myth

Transuniversal travel

Going with the RIFTS theme, this would be Transdimensional TMNT.

Damn your story is MEAN!!
Discarding souls like that? Wow! hehe

I’ll leave it up to the Loremasters of each guild to resolve this. As long as it doesn’t force me to change the story that Rooks and I develop for this guild ... I’m game.

I both like, and am leery of, the idea of a ‘link’.

This may be the first issue that comes up to the House of Scions, hmmm?

[Nafzib]

It shouldn't, with this format all memories of former lives are wiped out and they are completely immersed in whole new worlds. This would also make a nice format for the main page:

The Legion of Myth Mausoleum

Also, it can explain the separation between LoM leadership and individual guild leadership. The LoM leaders are the Cryptkeepers, holding the bodies of famous adventurers until... well until someone figures out how to get the souls back in the original bodies.
