Eabrek 0 Share Posted December 4, 2013 ((We are for hire for almost any kind of mercenary job you can think of. See the post below or this link for more details: http://www.lordofthe...ssins-for-hire/)) Walking through town one day, you are approached by a mysterious man, cloaked in dark grey. You can see strands of white hair under his hood, but the rest of his features are obscured. He examines you and says in a relatively deep voice, "You look like the type...tell me truthfully, are you..a mercenary, a thief...an assassin..?" Looking at the man questioningly, you reply: "Uhh..not really.." The man stops moving, looks you in the eye, and says, "Neither am I". He abruptly walks away. "Perhaps..what is it to you?" Even under his hood you can make out a devious smile forming. He reaches into a pouch, and hands you a folded piece of paper. "How would you like to be a part of something bigger?" he says. "Something..better..work with other like-minded mercenaries. Have you heard of the Dark Blade Syndicate? Likely not. Here," handing you the piece of paper, "fill this out. I'll be waiting over here." He walks away, and leans against a nearby building. You unfold the piece of paper, revealing an application of sorts. ((To apply, please fill out this application and give it to the man (post it in this thread)) OOC Information MC Name: Age (optional): Timezone: Have you been banned or warned for abusing villainous behavior before?: Accepted Evils (Link VA also): If you dont have a VA yet, list planned evils: Short character bio/why your character would fit in here: IC/RP Information Name: Age (not optional): Race: Current Occupation: Combat Skills: Have you killed someone before?: Have you ever been jailed?

Upon completion, you wander over to the man, and extend your arm to him, holding the application. He looks around, then takes it from your hand.

Eabrek 0 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 ((Guild Information The Dark Blade Syndicate is a group of mercenaries, thieves, and assassins who work together and take contracts from all kinds of clients for all types of jobs. (See link for hiring details: http://www.lordofthecraft.net/topic/102208-mercenariesassassins-for-hire/) We take no affiliation and favor no nation, religion, or other guild. We favor only the client. We offer our services in return for payment in minas or items of value. We are not a 'minas or die' group, though that doesn't mean not paying for contracts is acceptable.. If you are interested in being a part of the Syndicate, here is our current structure: Ranks: Grand Master ~ The leader of the guild. He has supreme authority over all members, and will allocate contracts to the members as he sees fit. He is also the carrier of the Dark Blade, made from obsidian. The current Grand Master is Engris. Master ~ Second in command under the Grand Master. There may be up to three members of Master rank at a time. Masters have the highest priority for high risk contracts. Members typically report to them when completing a contract. They may specialize in a specific type of work (thievery, assassination, etc.). Members may look to Masters for advice in training in those specific fields. Nightblade ~ The highest rank in a non-command position. They are the elites of the mercenary force. With the highest priority for most contracts, especially 'wetwork', they are expected to complete contracts without any room for error due to their experience. Listener ~ Listeners are considered of equal rank to the Nightblades, however, they do not take on as many contracts. They are instead responsible for finding clients and contacts and relaying contracts and information to the guild. Most contracts they are assigned to are lower risk, such as thefts, destruction, and reconnaissance. Seeker ~ The second rank of the mercenary force. They take on contracts of all varieties, but do not have as much skill or priority as Nightblades. They take on the low to medium risk assassination contracts. They are the first rank that has access to the Syndicate's sanctuary. Hireling ~ The lowest rank of the mercenary force. They usually take the lowest risk jobs, such as thefts, security, etc, and may go along with higher ranking members on contracts to gain experience in the job. They usually do not take assassination contracts unless the target is very low risk. They typically do not have access to the Syndicate's sanctuary, until they have proven their loyalty, skill, and commitment to the Dark Blade. Pay: Members are paid per contract. Pay level depends on the risk level of the contract taken. Basic Tenets: 1) You shall not kill, steal from, or purposely hinder another member of the Syndicate 2) You shall not kill unnecessarily while working a contract. 3) You shall not steal from or kill children. 4) You shall keep the secrets of the Dark Blade within the Syndicate, and may be bound to them until death. 5) You shall not bind yourself to the interests of nations. 6) ((You must adhere to all server rules, VA rules, and must properly RP before taking actions such as killing, destruction, etc.)) Members of higher rank may need to adhere to more advanced tenets, which will not be described here. Roles: Characters of all types are acceptable, be it the more standard mercenary/assassin type, or the less traditional approach as a mage. Do not be deterred just because your character doesn't have physical capabilities. )) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be an option :P)) 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That should be an option :P)) The man walks away, takes a loaf of bread out, and throws at you. He shouts, "A loaf for an oaf!" and disappears into an alley. ((Be gone troll)) ((Or if you really want to know..)) You somehow manage to overpower the man, and you drag his body to your base. After hours of torturing him, the man says only, "I am bound to the secrets of the Dark Blade until death", then gives a final sigh, and expires. The next day, walking in town, you notice someone in a similar cloak.... ((Happy?)) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

mafiaxsaint 6 Share Posted December 9, 2013 One more question. If my character wanted to leave the guild, could she? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eabrek 0 Author Share Posted December 9, 2013 ((Yes, but if it was through betrayal we wouldn't be very happy about it..also if your character becomes a higher rank and gains access to rather important secrets..you probably wouldn't be allowed to leave so easily in an RP sense. But higher ranks are typically given to those who have more loyalty and less thoughts about leaving soo... Also, for those of you without Villain Applications that wish to apply for the guild, you don't have to wait until you have a VA, provided you have plans to get one.))
