Guild:The Obscure Monks

The Obscure Monks [MonK]
Please Remember This page is a work in progress, I'll keep at it when I have time. Welcome to the Wiki page of The Obscure Monks. Our goal is to provide an alternative to your average guild experience and to provide a sense of community and structure not captured by the majority of guilds. You are more than welcome to make this your primary guild, and while participation and attendance are strongly encouraged and applauded,there is no minimun time limit assigned to alliance Monks. One of the great aspects of Guild Wars is the level of individuality and uniqueness obtained by characters, due to the varieties of classes, armor, physical appearance, items, etc.. provided when creating a new character and running it through the game. The culture of the MonK guild is more of a collective. An alliance of practically identical monks who are defined by their genrousity and helpful demeanor, and some of the rules and regulations, while adding to a sense of community, restrict a portion of the creative qualities that were intended for this game. This is one of the reasons for not having a minimum time limit attached to members. Think of the OMA as sort of a community service or The Monk Reserves. One weekend a month two weeks a year is acceptable. If you get tired of gameplay as an OMA Monk, take a break, we will invite you back in. Just adhear to the rules.

Recruitment
Recruitment is an ongoing project.

In most cases, you will always be welcomed back.

Culture
It is extremely important while using your monk to play an active roll in the culture of the Guild in order to enable growth and timely evolution of the alliance. The main virtue of the Obscure Monks Guild is GENEROSITY. Whether it be donating Items, Gold, or help with quests, "giving" to strangers and friends, should be your motivation for actions taken by your monk. Other things will contribute to the culture of the guild as well...such as   doing at least one good deed per day, for someone you dont even know.. Some activities will include guild hall games,events, and give aways. Generous awards for sychronized katas, marches, battlecries, and emotes, will be given to the group(s) of monks who earn them. Give away missions to outposts and towns will also ad to our reputaion. Playing in character is not required, but would help shape the culture of the alliance tremendously. The culture of the Guild is a work in progress and its up to YOU to make it something special. As they say...." if you want a friendly, helpful guild,... be friendly and helpful" It is all up to you   the member.
