New Guild

Post by **terryrayc** » Sat Jan 13, 2007 12:55 am

Okay with the success of the Guard as a guild, I'm toying with the idea of allowing mages to join the Nuvar School of Magic.

Now this will not be like the Avlis mage guilds...they will not be in charge of all things magic..however they will be expected to do the following

1) Use magic to defend Nuvar.
2) Use magic to aid the Guard.
3) lead all investigations regarding things magical.
4) help young mages learn and grow.
5) Other duties as assigned.

One thing I should point out...due to the demainds placed on guards and the demands placed on the School mages, you will only be able to join 1 of them.

What does everyone think?

Sounds good to me as a Nuvar based guild. Perhaps more.. scrolls available to members.

Maybe something special mage related.

(( purely as player based view ))

Yup sounds fine for me.

Thought the scrolls should be something that the PCs should trigger first as some research plot to find a suitable way to aquire the necessary items to make/find the required papers and ink. This would also have the advantage to give us time to add something like that to the crafting system as well give us a nice plot.
After that the mages, if they have the scribe scroll feat, would be able to scribe and pass low-level scrolls to young mages for help.

Think the scribing should be limited to a maximal level, or some other working mechanism, to prevent that too many high level scrolls will come into the market.

Sounds like a great idea.

One question though about players guild restriction. I totally agree with only belonging to either the Nuvar mage guild, or the Guards. But what if another guild gets created that is not Nuvar based, like say a general thieve's guild or something. Would a player still be restricted to one guild, even though the two guilds are not both based on protecting Nuvar?

at this time my answer would be no..you can belong to secret guilds and such....however that may change due to IG actions or such.

Ok,

I have a question about this.. here is my problem

Ril, is my Battle Mage... The guard guild started up because of something that happend to him IC and so Al talked to me ooc and said he was going to set up a time and place for guard training and such. Well, as you know my char is the follower of Ralyom. So, I'm kind of in a rock & a hard place here becuase I'll need to get Ril the proper mage training but I can't ditch the guard because of what has been set already IC.

Can you elaberate more on the reaons that a character can not be in both please? because I see this as somewhat of an IC problem from my point of view being as how my character is.

The same problem for Layl, but if he has to make a choice, the mage guild will be his one

the main reason is a split in loyality. However I'm more then willing to revisit the subject.

If everyone thinks it'll not be an issue then I'm fine with changing the rule
