Group Factions and Quests!

[Jester]

•○• What is Your Faction? •○•​

• World's involving magic and fighting often have Factions that players are able to join into to
take on quests and achievements. Roleplaying is no different. Maybe your RP revolves around a group of people who do something specific, and your job is to take on quests the whole game. Games that revolve around this kind of plot often don't have overarching storylines, but rather a cluster of smaller ones that string together to make stories.

• Your goal is to create your own Faction, and design it as a Master would. You are in charge, the people who join are your students, and you command multiple branches across your continent (if not the world.) Think of every detail you can, and flesh it out to the best of your ability. When you're done, you may be able to use the idea in a current RP, or you may get the inspiration to open up one of your own all brand new!

• If what you want to design has nothing to do with magic or melee, go ahead and change it to whatever you like. There are literally endless possibilities here - you could even come up with something completely new no one else has ever quite done yet. (Maybe it's a duck-raising. You never know!)

•○• How to Make Quests! •○•​

Name of your Faction: The Bears

Number of Branches: Just the one in a town called Ursa Alpha

Magic/Melee/Other: This is a melee faction,the people in it actually shun ranged weapons and magic users.

Guild/Faction Slogan: 'May your sword always strike true! And first!'

Number of Members: There are currently thirty six members including the guild master.

Max Members Allowed: There is no limit...their opinion is 'The more the bloodier!' Seeing as how they aren't merry I think that's just their version of 'The more the merrier!'

Initiations? Explain: If someone wants to join this faction they have to go into the wilderness and survive with the bears without killing any of them for a week. And that's hard seeing as how most bears there are the size of tool sheds. A lot of people actually die in the process.

Number of Mentors: Mentors? HA! They would never have mentors! You have to teach yourself if you join them! The only teaching you'll get here are overly exaggerated stories told by drunk men to make themselves look good!

Rules and Regulations:~No harming bears in any way
~No stealing from your guild mates
~NO VEGETARIANS
~No hunting on the first days of spring or the late days of fall
~No acting like a woman,everyone here is a MAN!

Punishment System:~If you harm a bear you will be attacked then thrown from the guild,maybe missing a limb
~If you steal from a guild mate you lose a finger
~If you don't eat meat you aren't allowed in and if you stop eating meat you'll be kicked out
~If you hunt in the first days of spring or the late days of fall you will be removed from the guild after everyone with a hammer hits you in the gut.
~Only men are allowed in the guild,if you turn out not to be a man or if you stop acting like one you will be slammed in the crotch with a hammer and kicked from the guild.

Levels: You cannot skip levels,you must do them in order.Cubs are the lowest ranks in the guild,to get higher you must kill a boar the size of an desk and bring it back for food and to mount the head.
Black Bears are the second lowest rank,to advance you must bring back a wolf the size of a single bed and bring it back for bedding and to mount it's head.
Sun Bears are the third rank you get to and to advance you must go kill one of the giant centipedes from the wilderness that is the length of a buss and bring back it's head.
Grizzly Bears are the second best rank you can reach. To advance to this you must kill one of the giant spiders that are the size of couches and bring back the entire thing.
Snow Bears are the best rank that anyone can get to without the guild master themselves giving him a special rank. To become a polar bear you must bring back the head of a colossal croc,freshly killed. Very few men have ever done it since these creatures are the size of tour buses and no normal sword can break through their scales,you need a special type of metal.
