"
welcome "
... to the
Alpha Guild, home of true heroes.
Here reside those who have sown chaos across the battlefields,
woven spells told of in legends,
performed deeds never forgotten to mankind.
Those with a destiny laid out for greatness are taken on here,
to perfect their skills and become legends among the people,
but not only natural born heroes are taken in...
The
Alpha Guild has decided to branch out from their nature of being selective of only the best.
All that wish to join the
Guild is free to do so.
Skills will be perfected. Legends will be written.
The time has come for a new age...
an age of what the world truly needs.
An age... of heroes.

" history "
...the
Alpha Guild was founded on the
6th of October, 2005.
Mike (
Loyal Arcanine) stated in his application that his reason for joining was
'because this could be the club that everyone wants to join'.
Once upon a time, everyone did seem to think so.
But as the years went by,
newbie members got kicked and new applicants were rejected.
Eventually we even reached a point where we took no one in anymore,
unless referred to by another member.
We had become an 'elitist' group.
We had proven to be talented.
We had proven to possess some of the best members on the forum of PE2K,
but it cost us our good reputation and we had been put on the black list.
During WAR's nobody wanted us to join.
Either due to the members and their talents (Mike (
Loyal Arcanine) the URPG God,
Meg (
Seawolf) the writing queen,
DU (
DaRkUmBrEoN), a master of debate and several others who
excelled in all other categories)
OR because we were too cocky
and people wanted us to learn our place.
I believe the latter to be true.
Sure, we had (and still have) highly talented members,
but nobody wants to compete against people who think they're the best.
We quickly fell down the ladder and landed flat on our backs.
Nobody looked twice at us anymore.
I regret those times.
Even myself, who barely had any talent at anything
and rarely did anything during the WAR,
considered myself to be a 'master' at the game.
Sure, I could do graphics and earned several points for my team.
I can write (and Meg is a fan of my writing and says I'm good at it, so I guess I do have that talent),
but I also thought myself to be the best.
These times were rough for us
and hopefully they've been put behind us.
I managed to see what happened to my beloved Guild
and realized it had to end.
We opened up applications again
and some more people joined.
Once again though, people with talent.
After several revivals and attempts at redeeming ourselves,
I now stand before you again.
This time with the same ideals I had when I first started in 2005...
Open applications to everyone.
Training for those newbies we once considered to be a taint of the
Guild.
Friendliness to all (at least an attempt to, haha).
What we once were, was lost and shall now be found.
The
Guild will rise back to what it once was
and together we will make sure it never falls from grace again.
The history of the
Guild will never be forgotten by myself.
And I won't allow those dark times to be rewritten...[/indent]

"
signing up "
The applications to the
Guild are open to all.
There is a small form I would like you to fill in should you wish to join.
Name/Nickname: What would you like us to call you?
Skills: What are you good at?
Experience with forums/teams: Are you new to forums/teams or are you familiar with them?
Which group within the Guild would you like to belong to?: Choices explained below.
Which specialization within your chosen group would you like to adopt?: Choices explained below.
The
T.D.D. -
Titan Defense Division. First line of defense on a battlefield. You can either become a
Suppression Specialist - helping your combat mates move more freely by suppressing the enemy - or a
Diamond Vanguard - a true knight of the battlefield. First to take the shots, you are an impenetrable fortress of defense.
The
R.A.F. -
Reaper Assault Force. Main assault group. You can either become a
Void Commando - become intangible by slipping into the void as you make your way towards your enemy, raining bullets while going - or a
Ranged Executioner - defeat your foes at maximum range, head shot after head shot, you are a master of death.
The
F.A.C. -
Firstborn Advisory Council. Advise and update your teammates with your knowledge of the enemy. You can either become a
Intelligence Agent - gather intel on the baddies and distribute this knowledge to help your team to a shining victory - or a
Word Weaver - sweet talking your way through the opposition, you have mastered the art of speech and diplomacy is your first weapon of choice.
The
L.D.S. -
Leviathan Demolition Squadron. Blow things up. You can either become a
Glass Cannon - you are vulnerable with light armor to quicker your step, but you can dish out immense amounts of damage using proximity mines, stickies, planted explosives, anything close range - or a
Blazing Rocketeer - rockets, rockets, rockets. Rockets that rain fire after exploding. Need I say more?
The
U.I.U. -
Umbra Infiltration Unit. Spies and assassins, one with the shadows. You can either become a
Shadow Operative - you work under the veil of shadow, unseen by all, you complete stealth missions with ease - or a
Spectral Assassin - assassinate your targets with the ability to turn yourself into a spectral form, slipping through walls, doors, etc that would normally stop a human being.
The
P.F.S. -
Phoenix Field Support. Without support, what are we really? You can either become a
Field Medic - keep the units healthy during combat, making sure nobody really does slip into the void to never return - or a
Grand Tactician - using what you know about the enemy, formulate strategies to make the most out of your squad's abilities to safely finish the mission.

" ranks "
guildmaster
THERE CAN ONLY BE ONE TRUE MASTER... that's me. (
Robert)
co-leaders
Together with the GM, they lead the
Guild to greater glory.
fateweavers
They can do just about anything the GM and co-leaders can,
but they still have to run it past them first.
They are also
authorised to teach/train new members should they require it.
So they kind of get apprentices I guess.
legends
These members have done something noteworthy
for the
Guild
and as such have cemented their legacy.
shapers
The members that help shape our
Guild
into a beautiful sculpture of greatness.

Probably the most active person you'd meet here.
When he was here anyways.
Dark Child
DC was just awesome.
LS The Door Mat
This guy has been through a lot here
and deserves a spot here.
Thanks Amir, for your dedication.
Loyal Arcanine
You were my third member ever.
You've been with us since the beginning
and have always been around for us.
You've helped us so much in the past,
you deserve to be recognized as the hero you are.
I raise my glass to you Mike!
Tyger Crysis
Isaiah, I am really glad to have had you on board.
During the times we were inactive, I believe it was always you who was there to post
and try to wake us up.
It was also you who prodded me out of sleeping to enter us into the WAR
and otherwise select someone else to do it.
It was also you who came up with my favorite slogan "anything else is just a group".
Thanks to you Isaiah.
Seawolf
Meg, you know I love you
and I'm really happy and proud to have had you in the Guild.
You've been so helpful to us
and have always been there for us.
I thank you and know you will forever be with us. Here's to you!
some cool stuff

I've had TTA for a month, you've had this team for over a year. You've come really far as a team and I think its right to give you the chance to become a War Team.
And so, if you accept it, I wish you guys good luck in the War. It was a hard thing for me to do, but I just feel its right.
