The Carnifex Guild
Moirean
Chairmander Portland
I've love some feedback with impressions people have about the guild: good, bad (with ideas for improvement) and so forth!

I think you should be less like Knights. The whole Knight thing was old when the Infernals did it.
Seriously, though - one thing I miss about old school 'evil' knights was the solo fight and the 'honor'. You could call them evil bastards, but call them dishonorable and they wanted to fight. I really think there's a lot of potential for Carnifex v Templar intrigue, on the basis of two holy orders, both honor bound by a strict code, going at it. I dunno, the thought of seeing Moirean and Alistaire calling each other out, both meeting at a location, the two guilds cheering on as their leaders wage war... potential for epic is there.

<P>If anything once the guild starts to find its feet and we start to really push class tactics I think we will be on our way to being pretty feared again. I won't talk about skills as that is for another thread but it does impact on us a fair bit with regard to how we do things. However moving on.</P>

<P>One thing I do miss is the mass slaughter we would do on random villages and I am sure noone knows her but at one point Chelsea had established blood treaties with villages in the game to serve as outposts that would report to the guild. This sadly fell through and nothing ever came of it. Perhaps this can be revisted one day as it was a lot of fun.</P>
and we are so awed because it serenely disdains to annihilate us.
Every angel is terrifying.
Since I am relatively new to both Aetolia and the Carnifex, I don't know too much about the history of guild size, but currently it feels like it's a largely growing and thriving guild. I have enjoyed the way the Carnifex have shaped Xenia as a character, and look forward to exploring how surviving the tainting might make her into a darker character.
I honestly love the Carnifex, it has nice people who are up for a bit of a crack and will take time out to lend a hand. Yet they are also very savage to those who get on the wrong side of the guild which for me is a wonderful thing to behold. I am now looking forward to where we can go with things.Will we try to venture into the underworld still? Will we burn a village to the ground and repopulate it will those only loyal to the cause? Or will we simply bend the cities to our will?
:P
So, I've been a Carnifex about a year or so now, give or take a month or two, and I have had nothing but positive interactions - Even in negative situations.
There was a time when Jura was being snooped on, and someone told Xenia - Xenia was more displeased with the snoop and took care of the issue, showing the point of "Carnifex take care of their own first. Everyone else is second." Frankly, that resonated so well with me that I hold it high regards. Here was this little Soldier, that was aspiring and working _HARD_, being noticed by the Commander and taken care of.
Flash forward to now, Jura has been Knighted, and serves as an Officer. While I haven't been with the guild THAT long, or seen a lot of struggles with the guild - It is a testament to how the guild functions and leadership that keeps the Carnifex fresh and interesting.
Even in internal disagreements between Commander and Officers, or those of any rank, they get worked out in such a way that it pushes both (or more) people forward.
There is a gravity that Tainted Knights and Officers put out, even when lazing about that is unmistakable as a Carnifex. You really sit there and think "These characters,these people, have worked their asses off to get this far. "
