The Lords of Light is open to allies

"I don't want to belong to any club that will accept me as a member."

This will probably be more of a story than a conventional recruitment post....

The Lords of Light was created in open beta, if not as a day-one guild, then pretty darned close. I'm not certain because I joined them later on. Over time, active membership has waned, and I eventually found myself as the most senior active player in the guild. I only officially claimed ownership and started taking a more active hand in leading with the advent of Strongholds. While our core players are few in number, we are incredibly stubborn and committed.

For historical context, here's the original recruitment thread:
http://forum.arcgames.com/neverwinter/discussion/474740/the-lords-of-light-a-lgbt-friendly-guild-social-pve-light-rp-events/p1

There are other guilds who are LGBT+ friendly in Neverwinter, and in my opinion, any guild worth joining is whether or not they have a charter that says so, but it is how this guild was founded, so it remains a core value. One of my primary responsibilities is maintaining the guild as a secure home for existing members, so if this is problematic for you, we're a poor fit.

Some other principles I hold dear:

*Be respectful in and out of the guild. Your conduct in-game reflects on you as a person and on the guild whose name you wear.

*Take pride in your play. Anything you can't do without cheating isn't an accomplishment.

There isn't much else. It doesn't matter if you do or don't buy Zen. Doesn't matter what level your character is or how geared you are or even whether you're a skilled player (though I would hope you are open to improving). No playtime requirements or mandatory donations/due/taxes/whatever you'd call it. I don't kick for inactivity unless I absolutely have to. Play whatever content you want, when you want.

Other things you should know about us:

*We're a small guild. Right now, we are too small to field a dungeon group or activate the SH Dragonflight, although we have done some of the biggest SH HEs as a party of three. If we had more members, then we already have players very much open to these activities, but these are also limitations that could understandably make people want to stay away.

*Related to the smallness, we're not especially chatty right now. Our regular players, including me, are very much speak-when-spoken-to types, and tend to focus our attention on gameplay. That does not equate to unfriendliness, only that someone looking for a conversation is probably going to have to be the one to start it. It also means we've had no reason to maintain any kind of voice com. On the other hand, if you're an independent or introverted player looking for an accepting guild that won't pressure you to socialize when you don't feel like it, we might be soulmates.

*We're not PvP-focused at all. I can't see any hardcore PvPer ever wanting to join anything but a hardcore PvP guild, but just so that's out there. It's hard enough to scrape up the resources for basic guild structures, so anything solely for PvP is at the bottom of the priority list.

What we do offer is a low-pressure environment to grow in, leadership that is reliable and honorable, and the collective effort of a handful of skilled and dedicated players.

I am not interested in padding ranks, and anyone who is looking for a guild for the sake of immediate access to high level boons and marketplace isn't going to find that here. But if you think LoL sounds like a good fit for you and you're interested in working on something together, I'd like to hear from you.

Edit: Current GH Rank 9

Just as an admin note, I've had the guild marked as unsearchable for some months to prevent invite requests from thieves. I'm easy enough to contact directly, here, in-game, or on reddit.

Because of the awesomeness of our core players, I got to push the button to start the guild hall rank 4 upgrade last night.

Hello,
I'm interested in join a guild that is active, social, and friendly. I have my first 70, a devout cleric, and I have a gear score around 2200. I usually play 5 nights a week in the evenings.

(I reply to inquiries via PM. Just so it doesn't look here like I'm ignoring them.)

kalriusx

Hi, I am interested in joining. I am brand new to the game, so still trying to get the hang of things. I figured joining a guild would be a good way to get more immersed.

gusstwo

yeah, most probably forced or seduced...

beckylunatic

I do not require participation in any guild activities, nor does our alliance require participation in any alliance activities.

stellarmeadow

Hey there! I've been playing Neverwinter for a few months now. I have literally no idea how guilds really work but I would love to join yours! (I finally created an account for the forums just for this. :smiley: )

killer95k

Hello, I am interested in joining your guild.

parthanos

Hello. I'm a relative newcomer to Neverwinter (since this January), and I like what I see so far about this guild. It looks like a good fit, so I'm interested in joining.

keresia

I'd be interested in joining as well. Just returned to the game a week or so ago, just looking for a quiet corner of the world to hang out with like minded folks

hgjndxz

Heya! I'm an open beta player returning to the game recently, and I think your guild would be a great fit for me. Small guilds are always what I prefer, and I would really appreciate it if you were able to get back to me! Thanks!

colonelscience

Hi! I'm very new to the game, only level 15 right now, but I do plan to keep playing and getting stronger and I'm interested in joining a friendly open-minded guild like this one.

mazlie

Wow, I remember being in this guild in the beta and for awhile after open but after I lost my old character because of a scumbag hacker, I forgot it existed. I'd definitely be interested in joining up again.

emelito888

Is it ok if I join this guild? I saw the name and the PvE aspect, so I thought it would be cool.
