Im struggling as no guild seems to fit my desires. Im seeeking a band of warriors who know how to party before during & after battle! Every guild I have spoken to seems very heavy hearted. Im not looking to become 'bogged down'. Im looking for high morale & great friendship. Can anyone advise me on any fighting guild & the relations between members communty atmosphere

thankyou

Sounds like you could join really any warrior guild, you just have to RP a little differently and try and influence the people around your character to lighten up.

Otherwise, I'm not very sure of the type of atmospheres each guild has.

The ur'Guard does not tolerate public drunkenness, if that's what you're looking for. You could always try to change that, though, like Aison mentioned.

Sorry, but there's no Jester-like guild here in Lusternia. Thankfully...

There's none, but if you meant 'having fun while RPing, light atmosphere, people who you could share jokes with while in character, then I guess the closest would be Serenwilde and Celest. Magnagora and Glomdoring are too serious for that kind of thing.

Dont worry, you could have that in every guild as long as you are nice.

Serenwilde/Celest/Magnagora guilds are all fighting guilds, especially their warrior archetypes. Glomdoring... well if your into RP go to Glomdoring. They still lack military force, but they're getting there.

I have a feeling that you're from Achaea for some reason, with the Great House mentality. There are guilds and clans here, and the partying stuff...might fit more into the clans part, instead of the guild. So, yeah...ur'Guard partying = crucifixion, Ebonguard = ?, Serenguard probably pretty OK, Paladins are usually fine, unless you become snuggly at the pool. The Aquamancers are generally cheerful and less religiously bogged down like the Paladins and the Celestines, though there are the Tide Lords. Bards.. could party, I guess...

While some of the old coots may threaten that, the most common punishment is a disfavour or an outguilding (for repeat offenders).

Or witnesses using it as blackmail.

Join the Geomancers.

If you want public drunkenness, I suggest the Jester House in Achaea, or any House in Ashtan or Hashan.

Err... I thought this was Lusternia?

And yeah, I think you're looking for either the Paladins in Celest or Serenguard in Serenwilde.

Please don't make the Geomancers snuggly.

She wants to party and have fun. Let her go somewhere where that's appropriate. Like the Serenwilde.

Hear that? All those joining Lusternia to have fun should join us in Serenwilde .

She wants to RP having fun and partying. That's not terribly Magnagoran. It's not to say that she won't have plenty of OOC fun in Mag.. but her character can't run about naked nuzzling the city leadership and downing whisky.

Don't get technical .

People can't do that in Serenwilde...too much.

Well I was stood naked for a long time & I asked if it was customary in the city to allow people to stand around naked. Im not seeking OOC fun or to drink alcohol. Im seeking people with the wisdom to know that joyfulness & friendship is important.

Ahha! Well, we seem to be opposites, you and I.

There's nothing I like more than OOC boozing and nudity.
IC, I'm set dead against it.

If you complete the introductory newbie tour, you'll be given clothing, and you won't have to stand around naked. If you join certain guilds (I only know the Serenguard), you will be handed a starting set of leather armor and a pair of simple weapons for hunting. Serenguard morale and friendliness is quite high, though we discourage silly or inappropriate behavior in the guild.

You can be a cheerful and social person no matter which guild are you in. Geomancers (Reiha is an example, although a bit too extreme), Serenguard, Celestines, Shadowdancers - they all accept people who aren't heavy-minded and gloomy! Really!

However, here's the catch - your character can be cheerful. It CAN'T be snuggly. Snuggling total strangers, drinking in public and similiar annoying actions will get you into trouble really fast, no matter which guild. But if you are acting like a real-life cheerful, bubbly character would act, you'll fit everywhere.

For example, look at Kaylee from Firefly. She's a dear and cute to the boot, but did she ever snuggle a stranger or even another of Serenity's crew memebers? Hell no.

Now, I'm not saying you're acting or want to act in the Achaea-retarded snugglybunny manner. But if you want to, you won't find a warm welcome anywhere. If you want to be reasonably social though, you'll find yourself well-liked more or less everywhere.

Cuber is exactly right! I mean, for example, Noola is quite cheerful and friendly, but she's not going to snuggle anyone who isn't family - and even then, she usually won't do it someplace like the Pool.

I would think that the traditions of the Paladins would be best. But you'll probabbly have to suck it up while a novice.

All guilds are "heavyhearted" as you say because the Basin is a place in which a very harsh reality exists. Not a single city or commune has gone without losses or went mad due to the Taint. There is alot of hatered, sorrow, anger... a very charged place. It is very likely that you will meet more "serious" people then happy go lucky ones... Also, as it is mostly the older people who give the real tone in the different orginizations... it is more likely that the mood will be serious because they have been through those occurances.

You will need to find your way... no guild in lusternia is overwhelmingly cheerful.
