Heavy RP guild formation.

I'm wondering if there is any interest in the formation of a heavy RP Dunmer guild. It would only be open to Dunmer and their servants. Non-Dunmer toons would be welcome but strictly as servants to a Dunmer noble. They would not be allowed to advance in rank within the guild but otherwise would be allowed to play with the guild in terms of PvP and PvE.

The guild would focus on all aspects of the game to have a broad appeal to players, so PvP and PvE would be equally important and earn equal respecting ranks for members.

Guild chat would be IC and be used as if the toons were in a single location. This would be a fictional guild hall and it's surroundings. Of course real face to face interaction IC would be prefered but this would allow people to interact in char. with each other while doing things that the game requires, farming, questing, dungeons. The rules to this would be if your in char. with a member of the guild somewhere you can not also be in char. in guild chat. God-modding any combat or fight would be forbidden and it would be used simply to talk in char. to each other and get to know each others char.s. Adult RP in any form would also be not allowed.

The guild would be under the influence of one house, that being the guild leaders and other nobles within the guild would be allowed to form their own lesser houses once they attended the rank of noble or high borne not sure what they would look like yet to stay within the lore.

Currently the guild is formed but has no members, I would need officers to take on the ranks of councilors, these would also be considered nobles and have the ability to invite to the guild either under the main house or their own. If taken into their own house each noble would be responsible for the actions of those in their house and answer for any violations and dole out any punishments as needed.

So if there is any interest in helping form this guild feel free to post here or mail me in game @tyrvaldr. with questions.

    Well I see that people are at least looking at this post. So I hope there is some interest in it.

    Now thats a lot of letters, so I just ask, if I understood everything right:

    So, if I'm in a party with my guildmate, and I'm speaking with him in character, i can't speak in character in guild chat, since my character isn't in "guild hall location". But can I, for example say something like "Guys, we need healer in BC, anyone?" if needed?
    OR
    I'm in group with my guildmate, and we're speaking in person with each other, so can I speak in character in guild chat?

    So there is no crap like:
    Bendu Olo: Bendu Olo hit Dralsea with fireball
    Dralsea: But she dodged!
    ?

    And a little proposition:

    Why not to take already existing House (Like Telvanni, since you don't like n'wahs) and use it's structure? In Morrowind, there was Archmagister Gothren, four Masters, and each had their own followers, apprentices, servants, guards, etc.

    And you didn't mention where is your guild located - NA, EU? Also, I assume guild is in Pact, so what about dunmeri from other factions?

    To answer your first question if you are IC with a guild mate face to face then you can't be in the guild hall location at the same time. OOC stuff like asking for a healer can be posted in (()) to guild chat of course.

    Your 2nd post is spot on.

    The reason I decided on a fictional house is so people have more leeway with their RP story. If I used a house that has already been written into the canon then people would have to fall into that box and it would be very limiting.

    The guild is on the NA server sorry for missing that. And as far as Dunmeri in other factions that would be fine of course, as the house would take prominence over any loyalties to the 3 factions.

    Maybe. Can't agree completly, since there were plenty of Redoran mages, Telvanni slavers and Dres warriors, but I see your point.

    I like your idea, but can't join, since I'm playing on EU. Good luck with RP.

    Interesting concept. I support deep roleplay, I mostly play on the EU server in this guild:

    We accept Dunmer in case that you find the time to play with us.
