Welcome to the Saviours of Solitude [SoS] Guild Advertisement Thread
****************************************
The SoS Ambition
The only ambition of SoS is to bring the lonesome players of ESO together, so they can have friends to play online with.
****************************************
Background of SoS
We officially formed in March 2014, in the last beta test for ESO. It all started off just as a simple plea for a lonesome fellow to have a couple of friends to just play with in the plains of Tamriel. Little did he know though, the plea would form a Guild with the ambitions of finding lonesome players, like himself, so they have people to play with.
The founding of the name did take some thought, with input from all the members at the time. In the end, we thought “Saviours of Solitude” fit best due to a few reasons:
1. We chose “Solitude” because it was a city/town in Skyrim, which links to the TES lore. We wanted to name the Guild with something that can be related to the TES series.
2. Solitude means (according to Google): the state or situation of being alone. This is a perfect fit for the ambitions behind the forming of our Guild.
3. Abbreviated, the Guilds name is SoS, which also stands for “Save our Souls”. Again, this is a perfect fit for the ambitions behind the forming of our Guild.
4. We chose “Saviours” because we feel like we will be “saving” people from solo-playing ESO. So, we are their “Saviours from Solitude”.
As you may tell, we put a lot of effort into the naming of the Guild, as we wanted it to be the best possible fit for ESO, and we believe we hit the jackpot with it.
Originally, SoS started off as a private Guild, only allowing few to enter, making it invite only. Recently, we believed it will be better if we expanded the size of our Guild and allowed anyone who wishes to join, join; as long as they fit into the criteria of our Guild. Now is the perfect time to do this, with B2P just around the corner. We offer a friendly community and the willingness to help any new player whom seeks it.

About SoS
- We are an EU only Guild, but will expand into other regions if we get enough requests to.
- We are mainly joined with the Daggerfall Covenant, but we accept other alliances into our Guild. Right now, we are looking for an EP Jarl! (Read more on these in the "What We Are Looking For?" section below)
- We currently have 17 members, although only 9 are currently active. (This will be edited each time a new member joins). We also have 2+ members rejoining once the game goes B2P.
- We do many things from PvP, PvM, Dungeons, Delves, Dark Anchors, and all around fun!
- We do have a subreddit: www.reddit.com/r/SavioursofSolitude. We do plan on creating a website eventually. But for now, a subreddit is easiest.
- We use Skype for our out-of-game communication, and Razer Comms for our in-game communication.
- We don’t have a level requirement. We want the Guild to be as sociable as possible.
- We don’t have an age requirement. We believe maturity is a lot more important.

What are we looking for?
Since we are a small Guild, we haven’t really bothered with organising roles. Since we are now expanding, we will need certain players to maintain certain roles.
What we are looking for:
- An EP Jarl* this person will be in charge of the Guild from the AD side of it, only report to the "High King"
- Thane this person is more like a moderator of the Guild. You have the admin (which is Jarl's and High King), then the moderators (Thane). There is a probation rank for the Thane, which we call "Guard." All this is, is the same rank-level as a Thane, just with less permission, as you are on probation.
*These ranks aren’t available for application. These will only be handed to whom we see fit, and when we see fit.

If you have any more questions about the Guild, please feel free to ask them and I'll answer them ASAP. Or you could message
@TheForFeeF through the forums, or directly in-game
It sucks when your at 2nd place in PvP, and your alliance gets all 6 keeps.
