• Guild Members are not allowed to Intiate Combat with Parties that have Not Proven Hostile, unless Both Sides agree to Duel. Personal Revenge is Encouraged, as is Attacking People for Insulting, Abusing or Grief Play. In case one is Attacked while in a Party, and the Victim isn't known as Killer who is Seeked Revenge upon, Defense IS allowed and encouraged. If you happened to defend a Killer against a Revenge-Seeker, you are expected to Apologise, Straighten the Facts and, if necessary, compensate with Money. Guild Members are expected to find out about the Reason of Conflicts before Attacking Mindlessly.
• Swearing and Insulting other People is tolerated, although only in a Roleplaying Context, and not as Means of Provokation to Justify a Kill. Nor to get rid of Real Life Frustrations or Aggressions.
• It is not allowed to say, shout or emote ANYTHING Out of Character (Including Abbrevations one would not utter), whereas you are free to Whisper, Tell or Talk as you want in Guild, Group, Raid and other Channels, which are not part of the AoC RP World.
• There will be a Weekly Fee (in AoC Currency) for Members, which will be used to the Guild's Benefit; for instance for City Improvements, for the in-guild Bounty System, etc. No Personal Gain is to be had of it.
• The Council of Shadows will determine who is Friendly, Neutral, Free to Kill or a Guild Enemy. Proof of having killed Guild Enemies will grant the Executor a Small Bonus (AoC Currency). Every Kill counts, Rez- and Chainkills are encouraged on Guild Enemies ONLY. They are supposed to feel the Full Wrath of our Guild.
• There is no Dictate to Partecipate in any PvP or PvE Events and no Requirement to play a certain amount of Hours/Day or -/Week. Completely Inactive Players will be removed at certain Intervals. Re-Application is Welcome.
• The Shadow Council is the Guild Government and Secret Service in one. Only the guild leader may Repel Decisions from the Council, though that Power will be used only in Cases that might Endanger the Guild or its Structure. Otherwise it will function as a Democracy where each Council Member has a Vote. Each Leader of another Council is also Part of this one.
• Any Member suspected of Spying for another Guild or committing other Treacherous Acts will be under Surveillance without Notification. then Expelled and declared Lifetime Guild Enemy if Proof is found of his Guilt. Any other known Characters of that Person will Share the Guild Enemy Status.
• As of now it is not allowed to have Characters in other Guilds on the same Server we are based. You can, however, have Unguilded Characters, as long as they don't cause too much Trouble.

Breaking the Guild Rules will be Punished according to the Graveness of the Offense. Notorious Offenders might find themselves expelled from the Guild and even declared Guild Enemies.
