CHARTER AND CONSTITUTION
The Legion of Myth is a multi-MMORPG (Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game) guild whose primary goal is to enjoy playing within the Lore of the gaming worlds in which we partake.
For our purposes, Lore is defined as the developer and/or publisher produced background information and story.
We are neither ‘thee’ and ‘thou’ role-players nor are we ‘d00dz’. We tend to not be stat and power min/maxers (number-crunchers), however, we are not ‘gimps’ either. It is our intent to provide a fun gaming environment while playing within the intent of the spirit of the games we play – as described via the Lore of the game.
If you are a power-gamer who cares about the numbers of the game while finding the story element to be secondary, you may find that we are not a good home for you. If you are an elite role-player you may find yourself disappointed here, but we will most certainly welcome you. If you are looking to role-play characters based strictly by the Lore of any game without the stress of ‘RP Nazis’ watching every word you say, then you should find us a wonderful home.
In games that have little to no Lore, we will embellish upon what is provided and create our own in the hopes of adding a story element to the game(s) we play.
Following the Lore means playing with restrictions. These restrictions include (but may not be limited to):
~ Racial restrictions
~ Class restriction
~ Skills and powers restriction
~ The overall playing within the stereotype of a given race, class and or profession
We do not wish to tell anyone how to play his or her character, but blatantly breaking Lore will not be allowed in the Legion of Myth. Exceptions to the rule will be few and far between – if allowed at all. Such a decision will be left up to the House of Scions.
The Legion of Myth tends to look for Player vs Player (PvP) games and servers. We are not random player killers (RPKs) who kill other characters for fun. Rather we believe that Lore based conflicts, wars, and subterfuge makes for a more exciting gaming experience. This does not mean that we will not have a presence in Player vs Environment (PvE) games though - we are where our members are.
The Legion of Myth derives its strength from the unity of its members – from the Chancellor to the newest member. We all have the same simple goals: to play in the games we enjoy, to play with the people we enjoy, and play within the written (if not enforced) story confines to provide a richer experience.
Although we do have a hierarchy and chain of command, our focus is on the camaraderie of the guild and its members. We want everyone’s voice to be heard. We want everyone to have fun playing a game.
