CLANS

CLANS / GUILDS

Clans (also called guilds) are collections of player characters with common
goals and concerns.

To join a clan, characters must have reached level 15 and been found worthy of
membership.  The <Leader>, <Lord>/<Lady>, or <Magistrate> may guild new
members to a clan.  Usually an interview, test, or tribute in diamonds is
required of the prospective member.

Clans are elite groups of individuals, and as such must be selective in whom
they allow to enter their ranks.

Only clan members may initiate, or be the targets of PK attempts.

Clan members have access to clan weapons.  These weapons are special in that
they grow with a character as the character gains experience.  Skill in
clanweapon is not dependant upon other weapon skills (it is a special skill
that all characters receive at 15th level but that only clan members can use).

The following is a list of the clans, and a brief summary of their ethos:
