Arcanes (Arc) |
Motto:
As One, We Are Strong.
Description:
The Arcanes is composed of only the most elite practitioners of the Magicks.
That is our motto, and for it we fight. The Ancient Order of Arcanes is an elite group of
practitioners of the Magicks with a long and honorable history dating far back into the
days of the old clans, when the Arcanes, one of the earliest of the peaceful clans, stood
apart from the fray and strove to hold the beacon of light and knowledge proudly aloft in
a darkening world. We have lived on in the heart of the Realms through many centuries of
peace and war.
Arcanes try to master the knowledge of the ever-changing world about them. With knowledge
comes power, and with power responsibility. Our magicks are strong, and rarely do we taste
defeat. But we use our strength and power to help one another; and where we can do no good
in the world abroad, we at least strive to do no harm. Members live by, and live up to, a
demanding Code of Conduct which requires teamwork and cooperation among members, and honor
and fair dealing in the outside world. The Arcanes reside in a castle created out of the
fabric of magic itself, which stands as a testimony to Arcanes' power and strength.
Order members' solidarity and coordination are unrivalled. Almost every day, and
frequently more than once in a day, the Order conducts some activity to which all members
are invited -- whether simple exploring/mobkilling, practicing pk, questing among
ourselves, or participating as a team in mudwide quests -- for mutual benefit and
enjoyment. To the extent possible, these events are held at different times of the day, to
permit the widest possible participation.
Those who distinguish themselves in such activities are regularly rewarded from the Order
Treasury. The Order also continually seeks to reward those who seek out knowledge and put
it to the use of the Order. |
